YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio - A Youngstown man is now charged with murdering a man along a South Side street earlier this month.

Thirty-nine-year-old Jermaine Bunn could be sentenced to life in prison if he is convicted of fatally shooting 30-year-old Michael Pete.

The Mahoning County Grand Jury on Thursday handed up a four count indictment against Bunn, charging him wih murder, improperly discharging a firearm into a home, tampering with evidence, and a weapons violation.

Pete was shot in the chest on East Evergreen Avenue on April 3. He died later in the hospital.

Bunn was arrested earlier on weapons violations, but had not been charged with the murder until Thursday's indictment.

Bunn is being held in the Mahoning County Jail on $1 million bond.
