Bond of $500,000 has been set for Michael Martinez. Prosecutors say Martinez opened fire with a gun during the memorial service for Jovany Diaz.
Diaz, 15 and a student at Amundsen High School, was killed celebrating his 15th birthday near his home in West Humboldt Park.
Martinez, according to prosecutors, was free on a pending narcotics charge when he went to the Diaz memorial. The Chicago Tribune reports further that Martinez has a tattoo on his right arm saying “In loving memory- Jovany Diaz.”
