Man, 24, charged with reckless homicide in fatal weekend shooting of 14-year-old Milwaukee boy

MILWAUKEE — A 24-year-old man is charged with reckless homicide for a weekend shooting that killed a 14-year-old Milwaukee boy.

DeMario Jackson is accused of shooting the boy, Japhet Moore, in the head.

Prosecutors filed a complaint Tuesday alleging Jackson indiscriminately fired a gun outside a house party overnight Friday and shot four people, killing Moore.

The Journal Sentinel (http://bit.ly/13kfguz ) reports Jackson also is charged with three counts of recklessly endangering safety and possession with intent to deliver a controlled substance.

Witnesses say there was a party at a house on the street. The complaint says three men began fighting when a man, later identified as Jackson, came out of the house and fired multiple times into the crowd.

The shooting wounded a 15-year-old boy, a 22-year-old woman and a 17-year-old boy.
