Stone Park Police have charged 30-year-old Nicholas Carrino of Westchester with the murder of a Niles man who was found shot in the chest following an altercation Wednesday morning, Nov. 4.
Carrino, 30, was charged with murdering Daniel Kowalewski, 32, of 7630 W. Madison St.
Kowalewski was pronounced dead at 2:27 p.m. at Loyola University Medical Center in Maywood after he was found lying on the ground near the intersection of Mannheim Road and Division Street in Stone Park by police answering a 911 call, Stone Park Police said.
