Jury in case of Tyshawn Lee's killing resuming deliberations

CHICAGO - A jury will continue deliberating in the case of a man charged with first-degree murder in the 2015 shooting death of a 9-year-old Chicago boy who was lured into an alley and shot at point-blank range. 

The jury that began deliberations Thursday in the case of Corey Morgan is expected to resume its work Friday morning. On Thursday night, a separate jury convicted Morgan's co-defendant Dwright Boone-Doty.  

Prosecutors contend the two gang members plotted to kill Tyshawn Lee because his father belonged to a rival gang they believed fatally shot Morgan's brother and wounded his mother. 

They said the two men saw the 4th grader at a park and Boone-Doty killed him with a gun Morgan gave him. 

Morgan's attorneys argued that he had nothing to do with the killing.
