Authorities say the charges against Gage stem from her alleged involvement in a shooting that unfolded inside the South Side home early Tuesday morning.

According to Chicago police, the shooting unfolded just before 7:30 a.m. at the home located in the 8100 block of South Maryland Avenue in Chatham.
