A 15-year-old boy has been arrested in connection to this summer's fatal shooting of a mother and postal worker who was killed on the job in Chicago, police confirmed this week.
The teen, who was taken into custody in Iowa on Monday, is charged with felony first-degree murder in the shooting of postal worker Octavia Redmond, Chicago police told USA TODAY.
Redmond, 48, was found fatally shot July 19 on her route in the city's West Pullman neighborhood according to information from police and the coroner's office.
A motive in the killing was not provided by police.
