Brownlee is also charged with four additional counts of armed robbery related to other Lakeview and Lincoln Park area incidents between May 5-6. He was ordered held without bail during a hearing Tuesday.
“We will not tolerate violence in this city,” Police Superintendent David Brown said Tuesday. “Too many precious lives are being hurt or taken away because of a sheer disregard for human life. And that is unacceptable.”
Brownlee pointed a handgun at Earley, who handed over a plastic bag he’d been carrying before lunging at Brownlee to try and protect himself, according to Murphy. The two men struggled and fell to the ground, where Brownlee allegedly punched Earley multiple times and took his phone before the gun went off.
Earley was struck three times, twice in the back and once in the back of the head. He was hospitalized in critical condition and remains there as of Tuesday afternoon. At the scene, investigators recovered three 9mm shell casings, as well as some of the proceeds from previous armed robberies, according to Murphy.
Days after the shooting, May 10, Brownlee himself was also shot and wounded in a separate incident near “The Bean” in Millennium Park, according to Chicago police. He was already a person of interest in the robberies at this point but fled from a hospital where he was being treated before he could be arrested, police said.
