A Wichita teenager has been charged with second degree intentional murder in connection with the shooting death of another teenager inside a car in the downtown area.

A hearing was held Thursday for 18-year-old Tyshon Jacques.  His bond was set at $500,000 and his next court appearance was scheduled for October 24th.

Police said 18-year-old Jaqualen Dupree of Wichita was driving a car Monday afternoon when he was shot, and his car hit a pole near 3rd and Broadway.  Other people jumped out of the car and ran.   Police identified Jacques as the gunman and he was caught after a foot chase near Kellogg and Topeka.   Dupree died later at a hospital.
