CHICAGO (WLS) -- Three men charged in the execution-style murder of nine-year-old Tyshawn Lee back in 2015 will finally go to trial this spring.
Lee was killed on November 2, 2015 in an alley near Dawes Park on the South Side. Prosecutors said the child was targeted because of his father's gang affiliation.
