\nTeens from Chicago charged with murder after a 14-year-old was shot and killed by a homeowner with a gun told investigators they were in Lake County to commit burglaries and had stolen vehicles in the past, law enforcement officials said Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Five Chicago teens, including four juveniles charged as adults, face charges after the fatal shooting at the home of a 75-year-old licensed gun owner who heard people on his property after 1 a.m. Tuesday and thought they were trying to steal his Audi, according to authorities.<\/p>\n

Illinois law allows for authorities to charge suspects with murder if someone dies during the commission of another serious crime.<\/p>\n

In this case, the teens were charged even though they were not holding the gun because 14-year-old Jaquan Swopes, of Chicago, was killed during the suspected attempted car theft at a home in a remote area between Antioch and Gurnee called Old Mill Creek.<\/p>\n

Lake County State\u2019s Attorney Michael Nerheim said Wednesday that the forcible felony laws in Illinois are similar to others across the country and have been upheld by courts nationwide.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe felony murder law is in place to discourage people from committing forcible felonies, because if someone dies during the commission of a forcible felony, then it\u2019s first-degree murder,\u201d Nerheim said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

By Glenn Smith
\nA 27-year-old Greenville County man will not a face a manslaughter trial in his father\u2019s killing after a judge ruled Austin Mendez acted in self-defense when he used deadly force to save his mother from a brutal beating.<\/p>\n

Circuit Judge Letitia Verdin recently granted Mendez immunity from prosecution under the state\u2019s \u201cstand your ground\u201d law, which allows people in certain situations to use deadly force when defending their property or facing imminent serious injury.<\/p>\n
