Markwon Wilson, 21, faces one felony count of drug-induced homicide.police officers and paramedics responded to a call in the 2000 block of West Roosevelt Road for an unresponsive man, later identified as 62-year-old Raul Torres.
When officers arrived, they located Torres unconscious and not breathing on the living room couch with a pipe in his hand and a white powdery substance, which was later identified as cocaine, on the floor in front of him. While investigating, police identified Wilson as the individual who allegedly supplied Torres with the illegal narcotics, prosecutors said.
