CHICAGO (CBS) — Prosecutors said 27-year-old Kyjuan Tate opened fire inside Burr Oak Bowl shortly before midnight Tuesday night, after getting into a brawl with another man who was trying to use the men’s restroom while Tate’s sister was using the facilities. Tate has been charged with one count of attempted murder and two counts of aggravated battery.
At Tate’s bond hearing on Friday, Cook County prosecutors said a 42-year-old man was attending his fiancée’s birthday party at Burr Oak Bowl on Tuesday night, when he tried to use the men’s restroom around 11:45 p.m., but Tate blocked him from going in, because Tate’s sister was inside. Prosecutors said, while Tate was visibly drunk, the other man had not had any alcohol that night.
