YOUNGSTOWN — A boy, 13, will be arraigned today on a murder charge with a gun specification in Mahoning County Juvenile Court in the shooting death of Logan Taylor, 14.

The boy is now in the custody of the Martin P. Joyce Juvenile Justice Center.

Logan died Nov. 13 after being shot at 11:30 a.m. Nov. 11 in the 200 block of East Lucius Avenue on the South Side.
