Danny Simmons was charged with a felony count of first-degree murder, according to Chicago police.
About 8:30 a.m. Oct. 22, 17-year-old Tremayne Maltbia was in the 7800 block of South Wood Street when a blue minivan approached and someone got out and fired shots, police said. The teen was struck several times and was taken to Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn, where he was pronounced dead.
Simmons was arrested Friday at O'Hare International Airport, after being identified as the person who allegedly fired the fatal shots, police said.
He is due in bond court Saturday.
