Carlishia Hood And Son Face Murder Charges
According to WGNTV, the incident took place in the 11600 block of South Halsted Street shortly after 11 o’clock. According to Carlishia Hood, the victim started striking her in the head after they got into a fight in the Maxwell Street Food Express.
Court records state that a witness who was present at the scene was smiling and vocally encouraging the assault. During the argument, Hood’s 14-year-old son allegedly saw his mother being beaten and entered the restaurant.
According to reports, Carlishia’s son pointed the weapon at the victim and opened fire, forcing Brown to escape the scene. Brown was allegedly followed and shot by Hood’s son. The 32-year-old victim was identified at the scene as having died from two gunshot wounds. Carlishia Hood reportedly attempted to grab the gun out of her son’s hand after the initial shooting, but he allegedly pushed her away and continued to grasp onto the firearm.
Carlishia and her kid turned themselves up to the local law enforcement on Wednesday, June 21. A single felony count of aiding a minor’s delinquency was brought against the mother. Due to his young age, her son, who has not been named, will soon appear in juvenile court.
