Court documents show that Chambers told officers: ‘I didn’t know that he was 12 years old,’ referring to the victim.
Chambers, who has had an ICE detainer placed on him, faced a judge Thursday morning in Bridgeport where he was arraigned on charges of murder; murder with special circumstances; use of a firearm during the commission of a felony; illegal possession of a firearm without a permit; risk of injury to a child; reckless endangerment, and larceny.
Three juveniles who police said were with Chambers that night, ages 12, 14 and 16, are facing charges of conspiracy to commit murder; carrying a pistol or revolver without a permit and larceny.
According to police, at 9pm on December 18, Howell was returning home from getting snacks at a convenience store around the corner when Chambers opened fire, reported Fox61.
