CHICAGO — Police have charged two people in a pair of Northwest Side stabbing deaths that were the result of an apparent drug robbery.
On Friday night, police responded to a well-being check in the 5800 block of North Mobile Avenue and found a 35-year-old man stabbed to death. Another man, 20-year-old Miran Cerimagic, also died of stab wounds suffered Friday night.
Erin Meyer details the prosecutors' case:
Police determined Cerimagic stabbed the 35-year-old man to death, and was fatally injured in the process.
On Saturday morning, police said they had another suspect in custody.
Charged with murder in both deaths are Orhan Cerimagic, 22, of the 6200 block North Hoyne Avenue, and Brittney Mitchell, 18, of the 4700 block of North Lamon Avenue. They are also charged with committing a home invasion.

Mitchell and Cerimagic are due in court Monday.
