SHARE

On Thursday evening, a tragic shooting occurred near the Douglass Park swimming pool, resulting in the death of 15-year-old Marjay Dotson and leaving 14-year-old Jeremy Herred gravely wounded. Surveillance footage obtained by CWBChicago captured the harrowing incident, shedding light on the events that unfolded.

Following the shooting, Chicago police announced that 55-year-old Charles Leto from Lakeview has been charged with murder in connection to the incident. Leto, who was identified as a pool lifeguard or supervisor, was detained at the scene by officers. He claimed that the two boys had attacked him while he was working on his bicycle and mentioned that he possessed a concealed carry license.

The newly surfaced surveillance video shows Leto kneeling next to an overturned bicycle on a sidewalk as the two boys and another individual approach from a distance. The footage, although lacking audio, depicts the moments leading up to the shooting. In a chilling turn of events, Leto is seen firing at the boys, resulting in the tragic outcome that unfolded at the park.

The video, while disturbing to watch, provides crucial insight into the incident that occurred at Douglass Park. For those interested in viewing the full footage, it is available for viewing online. The details captured in the surveillance video have played a significant role in understanding the sequence of events that transpired on that fateful evening.

As the investigation continues and charges are filed, the community mourns the loss of Marjay Dotson and hopes for Jeremy Herred’s swift recovery. This tragic event serves as a stark reminder of the impact of gun violence and the importance of promoting safety measures in public spaces.
