The shotgun death of a 16-year-old South Side boy appears to have been accidental, the product of foolish play, authorities said this morning. A 16-year-old companion has been charged with involuntary manslaughter.
About 2:30 a.m. Sunday, 16-year-old Arthur Tyler and two companions were playing with a shotgun in the 6300 block of South Seeley Avenue in the West Englewood neighborhood when it discharged, striking Tyler in the neck, police said.[...] According to the boy who was charged and his friend, the three were smoking marijuana prior to the shooting, police said. It's unclear where they got the gun.
