A 16-year-old is facing homicide charges in connection with a fatal shooting at a Racine park.
Prosecutors say 17-year-old Samarion Campbell was shot in the back during an October confrontation at Lockwood Park and died at a hospital.
A witness identified the suspect as the shooter, while court filings say he admitted firing a gun to protect a friend.
Investigators say video showed no active fighting when the shooting happened, contradicting the suspect’s account.
The teen is charged as an adult with first-degree intentional homicide, with a preliminary hearing set for November 19th.
