A 17-year-old boy has been charged with murder in the North Lawndale shooting death of Charles Labon last month.
Labon, 28, was walking in the 4100 block of West 16th Street when a gray minivan pulled up and somebody inside opened fire about 1:50 p.m. Sept. 14, authorities said.
Labon, of the 1900 block of South St. Louis Avenue, was shot in the chest and died later that day at Mount Sinai Hospital, authorities said.
On Wednesday, police announced that a 17-year-old boy has been identified as the shooter and he was arrested and charged as an adult with murder.
The teen, who police are not identifying because he is a juvenile, is expected to appear in court for a bond hearing on Thursday.
