CHICAGO — A Cook County judge ordered an 18-year-old man held without bond Friday after he was accused of murder in the death of Chicago police Officer Andres Vasquez-Lasso, who was shot and killed responding to a domestic-related call this week.
Steven Montano, 18, who remains hospitalized, was charged Thursday with first-degree murder, two gun-related felonies and misdemeanor counts of interfering with a report of domestic violence and assault. Judge Mary Marubio issued the no-bond order at a hearing attended by a number of uniformed Chicago police officers.
“This case from start to finish, it begins with violence and ends with violence,” Marubio said.
