3rd Person Charged in Connection with Death of Man Pushed From Moving CTA Train
Police are questioning a third suspect as prosecutors say four people assaulted Bickham before forcing him from the moving train.
- On Tuesday, Chicago Police confirmed they are questioning a third person of interest in the September 7 death of Kyle Bickham, 29, who was killed after being pushed from a moving Chicago Transit Authority Red Line train near the 69th Street station.
- Prosecutors allege four passengers—Katlar Parchman, 19, a 15-year-old girl, and two men—surrounded Bickham, punching him before forcing open the train's sliding doors while in motion and pushing the 29-year-old onto the tracks.
- Christian McBounds, 18, was arrested Monday and charged with first-degree murder, joining Katlar Parchman and a 15-year-old girl already in custody; Parchman faces multiple felony charges including mob action following her September 16 arrest.
- In court, Assistant State's Attorney Marilyn Salas described how the confrontation began as a verbal dispute, noting that investigators found Parchman searched her phone for "good places to lay low" and "who are the police looking for" after the attack.
- Although three suspects are charged, authorities noted the two men involved have not yet been charged as the investigation continues for Chicago Police seeking to identify and process all individuals allegedly involved in the homicide.
