Teenage Boy Charged In Shooting That Killed Man, Baby Near Mpls. Park

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — A 17-year-old boy has been charged as an adult with first-degree murder in an incident near a Minneapolis park that left a baby and a 20-year-old man dead.

Court records show a grand jury has indicted Minneapolis resident Jquan LeeArthur McInnis on multiple counts of first-degree murder.

Seven-month-old Jayden Eric Redden and 20-year-old Gustav Duane Christianson II were fatally shot Sunday in the back seat of a car parked in south Minneapolis. Christianson died at the scene. Jayden died at nearby Children's Hospital.

Records show McInnis was driving when he saw Christianson, got out of his car and shot him. The complaint filed Thursday in Hennepin County District court says McInnis told police he didn't know Jayden was in the car.

It wasn't immediately clear if McInnis has an attorney.
