Garvis Jones, 31, was fatally shot just after midnight on September 3, 2022, in the 1300 block of North Hudson Avenue in Chicago’s Old Town neighborhood. Officers responding to reports of automatic gunfire found him with a gunshot wound to the chest; he was taken to Northwestern Memorial Hospital where he was pronounced dead. The Cook County medical examiner later confirmed his identity.

More than 30 shell casings were recovered at the scene and bullet holes were found in nearby apartment windows and parked cars, though no other injuries were reported. Jones was well known in the neighborhood and had previously been arrested at the same address where he was killed. He was awaiting sentencing on a federal felon-in-possession plea and had a scheduled sentencing date of October 12 with a probable range of 92 to 115 months. No suspects or arrests had been announced and the investigation was ongoing.

If anyone in Old Town that night saw the shooting or has information about Jones’s death, please share what is known with investigators.
