He was later transferred to Stroger Hospital, where he was pronounced dead at 3:40 a.m. Thursday, March 31.</p> <p>And that was just the start, according to Cook County prosecutors, who claim that Jacobs’ son, 19-year-old <a href="http://homicides.suntimes.com/suspects/maurice-harris/">Maurice Harris,</a> fatally shot four people at the Nadia Fish and Chicken restaurant at 75th and Coles in retaliation for his father's death.
