Teen Charged In Fatal Shooting Of Philly Boy, 14

PHILADELPHIA (AP) ― A teenager has been charged with the fatal shooting of another teen near a Philadelphia bus stop last week.

Philadelphia Police say 17-year-old Charles Wilson shot 14-year-old Kareem Haynes in the chest on Sept. 8.

Homicide Capt. James Clark says the teens had a history of quarrels that culminated in an argument that afternoon. Clark says Wilson rode a bike to his grandmother's house to pick up a handgun and returned to shoot Haynes. The younger boy died two hours later.

Police say Wilson was arrested Thursday at William Penn High School. Haynes would have been a freshman at Roxborough High School.

Funeral services for Haynes were set for Friday.
