The boys, ages 12 and 15, were in a vacant lot in the 600-block of West 47th Street in the city’s Canaryville neighborhood at about 3:45 p.m. when they were involved in a fight with an unknown number of suspects, police said. Chopper 7 was over the scene, which is not far from Tilden High School.

At least one suspect pulled out a gun, and shot the boys, police said.

The 12-year-old was shot in the chest, and the 15-year-old was shot in the hip area, CPD said.

One of the boys was able to run away to the back of a nearby barbershop before collapsing on the ground.

The boys were taken to University of Chicago Comer Children’s Hospital in critical condition, police said.

Friday morning, police said the 15-year-old died. The Cook County Medical Examiner’s Office later identified him as Alex Durante.

On Friday, police said they arrested Daniel Navas Maiver, 19, in the deadly shooting.

Maiver was charged with first-degree murder and one charge for attempted murder, police said.

He is due in court on Sunday.

There’s no word on whether anyone involved is a student at Tilden High School.
