He shot Jamil Owais in the chest, fatally wounding him

Leggett fled the scene in his car, a Nissan Sentra, which was later identified through surveillance footage that captured the whole incident.

A 9 mm bullet casing was found in a candy box near the counter while the bullet was discovered near Owais’s body.

Witnesses described hearing a single gunshot as they arrived and found Owais already fatally wounded

Authorities tracked Leggett’s car through license plate readers and facial recognition software

They located him at an apartment on West Juneau Avenue, where they also found the firearm used in the shooting and shoes resembling those seen in the footage

Leggett was arrested hours later and admitted his crime in police interviews explaining his health was at risk due to the unsanitary handling of his food

Leggett admitted during questioning “I Shot Him” and also confirmed he used his gun, found in the apartment.

Leggett was convicted of manufacturing or delivering heroin in 2006 in Illinois.

Charles Leggett has been charged with first-degree homicide and possession of a firearm by a felon

He remains in custody with a bail set at $200,000 facing up to 75 years in prison if convicted

Owais’s brother Mohammad said, “It’s something that’s hurting a lot of us”, and “To take someone’s life for no reason – that is unacceptable.”

His brother described Owais as a ‘good guy’ who ‘never hurt anybody’ leaving his family, his wife and a six-month-old daughter behind.
