Evanston Police today announced the arrest of a 19-year-old Chicago man in connection with the Nov. 28 shooting on Green Bay Road that left one teenager dead and four others injured.
The suspect, Leonard Galvez, of the 7400 block of North Damen Ave., appeared in bond court Friday and was ordered held without bond on one count of first degree murder and four counts of attempted first degree murder.
Police Cmdr. Ryan Glew says that during the investigation by NORTAF and Evanston police Galvez made statements admitting that he had driven the vehicle used in the shooting incident.
17-year-old Carl Dennison of Skokie died at the shooting scene. The four other victims were hospitalized. Two have since been released, but police say the other two, a 14-year-old female and a 17-year-old male, remain hospitalized.
Glew says the case remains an active investigation and anyone with information is asked to contact the Evanston Police Detective Bureau at 847-866-5040 or Text-A-Tip to CRIMES (274637) and then start your message with EPDTIP.
The next scheduled court appearance for Galvez is Dec. 28 at the Skokie Courthouse.
