CHICAGO (STMW) -- Charges have been filed against Mason Johnson in connection with a fatal stabbing in the Morgan Park neighborhood, police said.
Johnson, 24, has been charged with first degree murder after the fatal stabbing of his father, Kenneth Johnson, on March 24 in the 11400 block of South Rockwell Street.
Mason is still hospitalized at Advocate Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn, recovering from injuries he sustained during the altercation.
