Skateboarder Terry Kennedy was charged with murder on Monday after a man he got into a fight with died from his injuries.
Josiah Kassahun, 23, died after Kennedy, 36, punched him in the head and then kicked him in the torso while he was lying on the ground in a room at the Oakbrook Terrace hotel, according to prosecutors.
Kennedy was arrested after the confrontation on July 27, and Kassahun died four days later.
The Cook County Medical Examiner confirmed that Kassahun had died from “blunt force trauma to the head due to assault.”
Kassahun’s manner of death was ruled a “homicide”. His family has filed a wrongful-death suit against Kennedy, seeking over $50,000 in damages.
