A 16-year-boy was on electronic monitoring when he carjacked a rideshare driver at gunpoint, and then drove the car several miles before he pulled up to 15-year-old Michael Brown and shot and killed him in the Douglas community this week, prosecutors said.

The Cook County State’s Attorney’s office said at 2:15 p.m. Tuesday, a man was driving for Lyft in the 4000 block of West Gladys Avenue in West Garfield Park. The Lyft driver picked up Anthony Brown, who was on electronic monitoring for two different pending juvenile charges, prosecutors said. GPS data from the device showed Anthony Brown arrived at 3352 S. Prairie Ave. in the carjacked Lyft car at 3:13 p.m. Two minutes later, Michael Brown was walking home from school northward on the same block, and Anthony Brown – who had been driving south – turned around to catch up to him, prosecutors said.
Anthony Brown was in the passenger seat at that point, while another boy, 15, was driving, prosecutors said. A weapon was also on the passenger side, and his sweatshirt matched up to the sweatshirt that was seen in the earlier surveillance video, prosecutors said. The other boy with Brown has also been arrested and charged as a juvenile with possession of a stolen motor vehicle.
On Dec. 8, Anthony Brown was arrested in an armed carjacking at 214 W. 22nd Pl. in Chinatown. Officers chased him and recovered a loaded Glock handgun, and Brown was charged again as a juvenile with aggravated unlawful use of a weapon.
