Milwaukee man charged in fatal shooting of 1-year-old boy

MILWAUKEE - A 21-year-old man has been charged in connection with the fatal shooting of a 1-year-old child.

Darmequaye Cohill, of Milwaukee, was charged with first-degree reckless homicide and first-degree recklessly endangering safety, both offenses with a dangerous weapon, in Bill Thao's death.

Investigators believe Cohill and possibly others mistakenly shot into the house where the 13-month-old was visiting relatives Dec. 27. The criminal complaint says they were gunning for a different 19-year-old man in retaliation for a drug-related dispute.
