A Chicago man was charged last month in a teen’s death in Whiting, court records show.

A criminal case was unsealed May 24 against Leonardo Nunez, 20, after he was extradited from the Cook County Jail in the March 23 death of Damien Abenante, 14, of Chicago.

Det. Brad Stelow wrote a pair of white shoes and a cell phone was still on the sidewalk. Abenante was taken to St. Catherine’s in East Chicago. The Lake County Coroner’s Office said the teen was shot in the chest. His death was ruled a homicide. No guns were recovered. Security footage about a block away captured a black Nissan driving toward Indianapolis Boulevard just after the shooting. The vehicle was registered to Nunez’s relative.
