Three teenage girls are charged with reckless homicide and robbery after an incident last week in which a 43-year-old North Chicago man agreed to sell his cellphone, was allegedly cheated, then was dragged by one of the suspects' car and sustained a head injury that led to his death. 
 
 Courtney A. Sherman, 18, of Tweed Road in Fox Lake, was charged in connection with the incident, while the two other suspects were named in juvenile petitions and held at the Depke Juvenile Detention Center in Vernon Hills, according to Round Lake Police Department Deputy Chief Michael Scott. 
 
 Sherman, who was being held Monday in lieu of $500,000 bail, was with several other teenage girls who had agreed to buy a cellphone from Trinidad Bueno-Sanchez, 43, of North Chicago, at around 7:55 p.m. on April 24, Scott said. 
 
 They met through an app called "Offer Up," where Bueno-Sanchez had placed an ad to sell his cellphone, and they agreed on a price and to meet at the Meijer store parking lot at 750 E. Rollins Road in Round Lake Beach, reports said. 
 
 "A vehicle driven by (a) 17-year-old female juvenile arrived and Bueno-Sanchez approached the passenger side of the vehicle," Scott said. "The vehicle was also occupied by Courtney Sherman, and four other female juveniles, 16 to 17 years old. When Bueno-Sanchez approached, he confirmed he had been communicating with one of the occupants in the vehicle regarding the sale of the cellphone." 
 
 According to Scott, Bueno-Sanchez began speaking with one of the girls, who was sitting in the front passenger seat. The deputy chief added that the girl asked to look at the phone, and Bueno-Sanchez gave it to her. That girl then handed Bueno-Sanchez an envelope containing only a fraction of the agreed-upon price, Scott said. 
 
 Bueno-Sanchez was leaning into the vehicle while he took issue with the payment, Scott said. At that point, the 17-year-old driver accelerated and Bueno-Sanchez was dragged by the vehicle before falling and striking his head on the pavement while the vehicle fled the scene, according to reports. 
 
 "He was talking to rescue personnel, and we didn't think he had life-threatening injuries, but a few hours later we learned they were life-threatening," Scott said. 
 
 Bueno-Sanchez was taken to Advocate Condell Medical Center in Libertyville, where he died on Thursday, police said. Lake County Coroner Dr. Howard Cooper ruled his death a homicide caused by head trauma, Scott said. 
 
 The Major Crime Task Force was called in to assist in the investigation, Scott said, adding that Sherman and one juvenile were taken into custody over the weekend, and the other juvenile was picked up Monday. He said the other two occupants of the vehicle, females 16 to 17 years of age, will not be charged in the case.

 CHICAGO (CBS) — Three teenage girls were facing reckless homicide charges, after they allegedly dragged a North Chicago man from their car when they cheated him out of his cell phone. 
 
 Police said 43-year-old Trinidad Bueno-Sanchez took out an ad to sell his mobile phone, and he thought he found a buyer. 
 
 However, when a carload of teenagers pulled into the grocery store parking lot where he’d arranged to meet them on April 24, they only gave him a fraction of the agreed-on price. 
 
 Round Lake Beach Deputy Police Chief Michael Scott said, as Bueno-Sanchez leaned into their car to demand the rest of his money, the teenagers drove off, and Bueno-Sanchez was dragged by the car. He fell to the ground, hitting his head. 
 
 “It seems like he took every reasonable step he could to ensure his safety. He did it during daylight. He did it in a public area,” Scott said. 
 
 Bueno-Sanchez was taken to Advocate Condell Medical Center in Libertyville, where he was on life support until Thursday, when he died. 
 
 “This is shocking for everyone involved,” Scott said. “There are thefts that occur, but something of this seriousness, it’s actually unheard-of.” 
 
 Scott said Bueno-Sanchez had a wife and a young child. 
 
 Three teens – two 17-year-old girls and an 18-year-old girl – have been charged with reckless homicide and robbery. Courtney A. Sherman, 18, of Fox Lake, was charged as an adult. The other two were charged as juveniles.

 ROUND LAKE BEACH, Ill. – Three teens have been charged after a suburban Illinois father was killed while trying to sell his iPhone using the popular app OfferUp, according to WGN-TV. 
 
 Police say 43-year-old Trinidad Bueno-Sanchez of North Chicago, a married man with a 6-year-old child, did everything right when trying to sell his cellphone. 
 
 Using OfferUp, he found a potential buyer who expressed interest in purchasing his iPhone 6 for $450, and agreed to meet them in the parking lot of a Meijer store in Round Lake Beach the evening of April 24. 
 
 Five teens met him in the lot. Police said Bueno-Sanchez leaned inside the suspects’ vehicle during the exchange. 
 
 “They asked to see the phone so he handed them the phone,” Deputy Chief Mike Scott of Round Lake Beach Police said. “Then they handed him an envelope that was supposed to be the money for the phone. But (it) turned out there was just a few dollars in there.” 
 
 At that point, police said, the teens tried to speed off with the phone, but Bueno-Sanchez was still leaning through the window. He was dragged alongside the car before falling and hitting his head on the pavement. He was taken to a hospital in Libertyville where he was put on life support and died three days later. After an autopsy, the Lake County Coroner ruled his death a homicide caused by head trauma. 
 
 A passenger in the car at the time of the incident, 18-year-old Courtney Sherman, of Fox Lake, is one of three teens charged with reckless homicide and robbery. She’s being held on $500,000 bail. A 16- and 17-year-old are also charged and being held at a juvenile detention center in Vernon Hills. 
 
 “Young people don’t think of the ramifications of their actions,” Deputy Chief Scott said. “They think of what they’re planning on doing and they don’t think of the things that can go wrong … with this, everything that could have went wrong did, and it can’t get more serious than it is right now.”
– A 43-year-old Chicago man trying to sell his old iPhone instead ended up dead at the hands of three teenage girls, police say. Trinidad Bueno-Sanchez, also identified as Javier Bueno, had arranged to sell an iPhone 6 using the Offer Up app and met a prospective buyer in a Chicago parking lot on April 24, authorities tell the Chicago Tribune. The teen buyer, in a vehicle with four others, asked to see the phone and Bueno-Sanchez obliged, according to police. The teen then handed him an envelope. But just as Bueno-Sanchez realized it contained only a few dollars, not the $450 he'd requested, the driver of the car raced away, police say, per ABC 7. Because Bueno-Sanchez had been leaning inside the vehicle at the time, he was dragged along for a bit until he fell, say authorities. Though he was able to speak to responding authorities, the 43-year-old father of seven had hit his head on pavement and died of his injuries on Thursday. "He was such a good person, he didn't deserve any of this," says his daughter. "There are thefts that occur, but something of this seriousness, it's actually unheard of," a Round Lake Beach police rep tells CBS Chicago. "Everything that could have went wrong did," he adds, per Fox 6. Courtney Sherman, 18, has since been charged with reckless homicide and robbery and is being held on $500,000 bond. Two juveniles, 16 or 17, face the same charges. Two other teenagers in the vehicle will not be charged, police say. Supporters have started a GoFundMe campaign for the victim's family.
