The teen, who was found guilty, was being held in the Cuyahoga County Jail on a $1 million bond, per court records.
According to the Cuyahoga County Juvenile Court, the teen's case was a mandatory bindover, which means a minor's case is automatically sent to adult court for adjudication without a judge considering the facts or evidence first.
He has a hearing set for Oct. 31 at 10:30 a.m.
