A teenage boy was ordered held without bond Monday after authorities said he fatally shot Jaynisha Schaffer in the Chicago Lawn neighborhood in July.
Schaffer, 19, was walking with a group in the 2200 block of West 69th Street when 17-year-old Billy Howard rode up on a bicycle and opened fire about 7:05 p.m. July 7, authorities said.
Schaffer, of the 7600 block of South Paulina Street, was shot in the back and died hours later at Advocate Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn, authorities said.
Schaffer was a sophomore at Kennedy-King College, where she was studying architecture, her family said. She chose architecture because she loved to draw.
“She was an excellent drawer. If you stood still long enough she could draw you,” said a family member, who asked not to be named.
Haywood, 17, was charged with first-degree murder and Judge Laura Sullivan ordered him without bond Monday, authorities said. He will be back in court Dec. 19.
