Linner Tyrone Hawkins, a 44-year-old African American man, was killed in Chicago on November 20, 2022. He was standing with a group in the 5800 block of West Augusta Boulevard at about 11:40 p.m. when an unknown assailant opened fire. Hawkins suffered a gunshot wound to the chest, was taken to Stroger Hospital, and was pronounced dead.

The same shooting also fatally wounded 15-year-old Ruby Navarrete and critically injured a 39-year-old man who was shot in the leg. Police identified 18-year-old Edwin Lagunas as the shooter and charged him with two counts of first-degree murder, one count of attempted murder, and one count of aggravated battery. The attack occurred near a building reportedly used as a motorcycle club that did not have a current business license.

Neighbors expressed shock and sadness at the violence and the community’s concerns about safety and unlicensed businesses were noted. Does anyone have information about that block of West Augusta Boulevard or the motorcycle club location that could help clarify what happened that night?
