 A man who had contributed money to buy beer along with his friends became angry when he did not get any change back and fatally shot one of those friends and critically wounded another over the weekend, officials said. 
 
 Gumaro Torres, 31, was ordered held without bail after being charged with the shootings that happened about 11:30 p.m. on Aug. 16, officials said in court today. He was charged with first degree murder, attempted first degree murder and aggravated battery with a deadly weapon. 
 
 Torres was at a home on the 1800 block of North Pulaski Road where Torres and the other members of the group, including Jose De LaFuente, were sitting at a picnic table in the yard, prosecutors said. 
 
 After drinking several beers, Torres became angry about beer money and began a verbal argument, prosecutors said. 
 
 A short while later Torres left the group and went to his home on the same block and returned with a loaded 9mm semi-automatic handgun, prosecutors said in court. 
 
 "He stated that he was angry that when he returned the victims laughed at him," prosecutors said. 
 
 As soon as he returned to his group of friends, he "immediately began to fire his gun at Jose De LaFuente," prosecutors said. De LaFuente was struck in the abdomen and later died at Mount Sinai Hospital, prosecutors said. 
 
 As Torres fired, another friend tried to stop Torres from shooting but as he approached, Torres turned the gun on him, prosecutors said. 
 
 The friend was shot in the hand, abdomen, leg and right hip, and was taken in critical condition to Mount Sinai where he remains, officials said. 
 
 After shooting the friend, a third man was able to subdue Torres. As Torres struggled, he pistol-whipped the third friend several times in the head with the butt of the gun.

– A summer evening spent drinking in the yard turned fatal Friday night—and all over beer money. Gumaro Torres is accused of murdering one friend and wounding another in the dispute. As the Tribune reports, the 31-year-old was drinking beer with co-workers in the yard of a Chicago home. The group had pooled money to buy the booze, and prosecutors say Torres was angry that he didn't receive any change. They say that after a few beers he headed to his nearby home, retrieved a handgun, returned, and started shooting. "He was angry that when he returned the victims laughed at him," and "immediately began to fire his gun at Jose De LaFuente," prosecutors say. De LaFuente died of his abdomen wound. As another friend tried to stop Torres, he was shot multiple times and is in critical condition, CBS Chicago reports. A third man was finally able to subdue Torres, though he was pistol-whipped in the process. Torres has been charged with three felonies, including first-degree murder.
