2 Chicago Men Charged In Death Of Dwyane Wade’s Cousin

CHICAGO (CBSMiami/AP) — Two brothers who were on parole for prior criminal activity have been charged in the shooting death of the cousin of NBA star Dwyane Wade, Chicago police announced Sunday.

Darwin Sorrells Jr., 26, and Derren Sorrells, 22, were charged with first-degree murder and also attempted murder in Friday’s shooting.

Nykea Aldridge, a 32-year-old mother of four, was pushing her baby in a stroller near a school where she’d planned to register her children when she was shot in the head and arm. She wasn’t the intended target, Cmdr. Brendan Deenihan said at a news conference Sunday, but rather a driver who had just dropped off passengers in the neighborhood.
