Second Teen Charged in Murder of Retired Chicago Police Officer

The 17-year-old faces multiple charges in connection with the fatal shooting of Larry Neuman, a respected community figure.

Larry Neuman, a retired CPD bomb technician, was shot and killed on June 20 in West Garfield Park.
A 17-year-old boy was arrested and charged with Neuman's murder and an unrelated armed robbery.
This arrest follows the earlier detention of 16-year-old Lazarious Watt, also charged in Neuman's death.
Neuman was a Vietnam veteran, TSA explosives expert, and ordained minister.
The case highlights ongoing concerns about gun violence affecting Chicago's most vulnerable residents.
