New murder case filed against man accused of shooting teacher
A man charged in the shooting death earlier this year of a Chicago special education teacher has been charged in a 2012 fatal shooting.
Chicago police say Dominique Hodrick was charged this week with first-degree murder and aggravated battery in the shooting death of a 17-year-old boy and the wounding of a 42-year-old woman.
Lucian Dreux died in Stroger Hospital after being shot in the abdomen and face by someone riding a mountain bike. The woman, who hasn't been identified, was shot in a leg.
Hodrick was previously charged with the murder of 58-year-old Betty Howard. She taught at Gwendolyn Brooks College Preparatory Academy. Howard was working part time at a realty company when she was shot. Two others were wounded.
It wasn't immediately known if the 23-year-old Hodrick has legal representation.
