No bail for CTA worker accused of shooting intoxicated man during argument at Red Line stop

Bail was denied Sunday for a Chicago Transit Authority employee accused of shooting an intoxicated man multiple times early Saturday after he was knocked down during an argument at the 95th/Dan Ryan Red Line stop.

Sylvester Adams, 53, of Lynwood, faces charges of attempted murder and unlawful use of a weapon in connection with the attack, which was captured on cellphone video that has spread on social media.
