Chicago police announce charges in mass shooting that killed 3

In the latest development in the Sunday morning shooting outside a north side bar that left 3 dead, Chicago police Superintendent David Brown announced five charges against 32-year-old Samuel Parsons-Salas at a news conference Tuesday: three for first-degree murder, one for first-degree attempted murder and one for kidnapping with a firearm.

Parsons-Salas had been arrested for a 2010 home invasion and was paroled this September, Brown said. The Chicago Tribune reported in 2014 that Parsons-Salas had been arrested and charged with two counts of first-degree murder in connection to that home invasion. No word on exactly the disposition of that case or what exactly his sentence was, but he was apparently out on parole when this latest incident occurred early Sunday morning.

The bar where the fight and subsequent shooting took place, Vera Lounge, located at 3235 N. Central has been shut down per CPD order.
