CHICAGO — Felony charges have been filed against a Chicago man accused of shooting another man after an argument and threatening a woman on the city’s South Side early Saturday morning.
Chicago police say 42-year-old Miram Chapman, a West Pullman resident, has been charged with attempted first-degree murder, aggravated battery with the discharge of a firearm, three counts of aggravated discharge of a firearm in an occupied vehicle, and one misdemeanor count of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.
Officers say the charges stem from a shooting and assault that allegedly unfolded around 3 a.m. in the 5700 block of South Wabash Avenue Washington Park.
According to police, Chapman allegedly opened fire on a 24-year-old man inside an apartment in the area following an argument. The victim was hit once in his lower back and was later taken to the hospital in good condition.
Officers say Chapma then allegedly threatened a 45-year-old woman, but the circumstances surrounding the incident are unclear.
