3 Teens Charged In Dearborn Homicide

DEARBORN, Mich. (CBS DETROIT/ AP) — Three teens - ages 17, 14 and 13 - have been charged with murder and armed robbery in the fatal shooting of a 29-year-old Warren woman.

Prosecutors say 17-year-old Jamel Philson, 14-year-old Demaurio Dismuke and a 13-year-old boy are expected to be arraigned Friday.

Prosecutors allege Dismuke robbed and shot Saja Aljanabi last week as she sat in a car in Dearborn.

Police said Aljanabi went to Dearborn to take her mother to a mosque for prayer. Dearborn's police chief said she was an innocent victim.

It's alleged that minutes earlier the 13-year-old was holding a gun during the robbery of a 49-year-old woman.

It's also reported a shot also was fired at a 56-year-old man following Aljanabi's shooting.

Dismuke is being charged as an adult, charged with assault with intent to murder and faces gun charges.

The 13-year-old is adult designated, meaning he can be sentenced as a juvenile or adult, or given a blended sentence if convicted. He also faces gun charges.
