Cops: Man, 63, fatally shot brother with shotgun for telling him to be quiet


Bleeding from a gunshot wound to his side, prosecutors said Ronald Peters crawled to the street outside his South Side home on Friday and put his hands in the air.

Larry Peters then raised a 12-gauge shotgun and shot his brother a second time, a witness told police.

Ronald Peters, 50, died a short time later. His older brother is being held without bail on a first-degree murder charge. Prosecutors say the dispute started when Ronald Peters asked his brother to be quiet.
