A fifth man has been charged in connection with the mass shooting in which a
3-year-old child was among 13 injured Sept. 19 in a South Side park.
David Logan, 22, of the 3100 block of South Green Street, has been charged
with unlawful use of a weapon and obstructing justice.
Police said Logan was arrested Wednesday, the same day 3-year-old Deonta
Howard was released from Mount Sinai Hospital after the attack at Cornell Square
Park in the 1800 block of West 51st Street.
Deonta was shot about 10:15 p.m. when two men armed with an assault rifle and
a .22-caliber handgun fired indiscriminately into a crowd at the Back of the
Yards park. Deonta was playing on the basketball court when a bullet struck him
near the ear and exited through his cheek. Doctors have said Deonta did not
suffer brain damage but will require plastic surgery.
Four other men -- Bryon Champ, 21; Kewane Gatewood, 20; Tabari Young, 22; and
Brad Jett, 22 -- have been charged with attempted murder and aggravated battery
with a firearm.
According to police, Champ and Young, one armed with the assault rifle and
the other with a .22-caliber handgun, opened fire at the crowded park that they
considered the turf of the rival gang. Police say Champ was looking for revenge
after being grazed by a bullet earlier in the day.

Law enforcement seems to be doing a good job over there in Chicago. With all the carnage going on the detectives must be totally overwhelmed. Hats off to the men and women of the police department doing their best to protect each and every one of you.
TALL TREE = SHORT ROPE :-)
Them niggas some hoes for trickin on they own mans die 5
The police are a large part of the problem. Who the hell they protecting with innocent kids and grown ups getting caught in the crossfire and murders sky fucking high every year. Black people wake your asses up!
Before an African warrior is given the weapons of war to defend himself from his enemy. He must first have a clear description of the enemy. If he acquires the training and weaponry beforehand, with no clear comprehension of the enemy his skill and drive will provoke him to create an enemy, even if the enemy is a direct reflection of himself. Black warriors wake your asses up.
It looks so gross when they grow their fur long like that. Yuck.
Why things like this constant in chicago, then i realize ,its not that youre leaders dont care its what their doing ,oh yea signing (isrealight) see u soon, hopefully signing isrealight
Blacks are so racist , they teach this shit to there children. How sick you are. We do not teach our kids to hate anyone..You all sound Crazy. I wonder , how many white kids you have killed.
I'm white don't hate no one! God don't like hate , mom , and my dad taught me that. Best of life to U
so if these gangbangin shitheads go out to a public place with their dreadlocked offspring, police should act as bodyguards, am i to understand this? pieces of shit whine when they use one of their spawn for a human shield but have no problem pointing an illegal firearm at police when its suits their street-cred enhancing purposes. let em shoot the fuck out of each other, police can document the mess afterwards,
Agree, Blacks hate every race, let them kill each other off. Don't put cops in Harms way.
African Americans hate all White crackers. Now get your fat ass back to work . u pay fo my 4 kids. Stop tripping , BOO, BOO HOO.
Armegetion is here.. Blacks and Muslims are killing us.
We're kinda waiting for you to use them as a human shields so we only have to pay for a funeral, not their whole fucking waste of oxygen life.
You all are so ignorant, those are your thoughts and opinions of blacks, african american. Whites, hispanics etc. In the end we all bled red blood andit is so sad that people are still prejudice. At least bavk in tgey day they didn't remain anonymous. I woyld rather know whom hates who instead of walking amongst hidden hayred. Praying for us all.
