David DeVeaux Jr., a 20-year-old African American man, was killed on September 4, 2022, in Chicago. The shooting happened about 7 p.m. while he sat in front of a friend’s home on the 8600 block of South Kingston Avenue. At least two shooters armed with a rifle and two handguns approached and opened fire on a group of four people without any apparent provocation.

David and an 18-year-old friend, Jason Mundo, were both killed; two other victims suffered critical injuries. David had been helping prepare for a family barbecue a few hours before the attack. His father, David DeVeaux Sr., marked his 60th birthday grieving the loss of his only son. A South Chicago pastor who employed all four victims at a church thrift store described the shooting as deeply saddening and hurtful.

No arrests have been made and the Chicago Police Department is asking anyone with information to come forward. Does anyone have information about that evening on South Kingston Avenue or saw anything that could help the investigation?
