Galloway, with Brown’s help, “went to great lengths to conceal the location and circumstances of the shooting,” police said.
Through a search warrant, police found a stolen and loaded gun in the car driven by Galloway, who is a felon, police said. The gun is being tested to see if it was used in the shooting, police said.The Park Forest Police Department is still investigating the shooting and anticipates additional arrests and charges, police said.
