manslaughter and reckless discharge of a firearm. “The untimely death of this juvenile is a tragedy. Our investigation revealed this as a careless, reckless, act that could have been prevented. I personally would like to thank everyone involved in assisting with this case–our Patrol Officers who responded to the scene, Investigators, and the Will/Grundy Major Crimes Task Force.” said Chief Ed Clark.
The Will County Coroner’s office identified the slain teen as 16 year old Trayvon C. Fraizer of Jackson, Tennessee.
