Superintendent of Police Garry McCarthy said at a press conference at the murder scene Thursday it was the most "abhorrent, cowardly, unfathomable crime" in his 35 years of police work.
He said Tyshawn was on his way to his grandmother's on Monday afternoon when he joined others in the alley near her house. That's when the boy was swept into a bloody feud involving two rival factions of the same gang. His execution was the latest in a series of vengeful assaults going back months.
