Shawn Dontell Brown, 31, was shot multiple times and killed on July 25, 2022, in Chicago’s Humboldt Park neighborhood. The shooting happened around 1:20 p.m. in the 3800 block of West Thomas Street when a car drove up and someone inside began firing. Brown, who suffered a gunshot wound to the head, was taken to Stroger Hospital and pronounced dead that evening at 8:20 p.m.

Investigators determined the attack was a drive-by shooting. Surveillance video allegedly showed a Dodge Charger pull up, and two people exit armed with rifles before opening fire on Brown, who was sitting in a car. On October 20, 2022, 25-year-old Michael Lampley was charged in connection with the killing; charges included first-degree murder, attempted first-degree murder, armed habitual criminal, and possession of a stolen vehicle. He was arrested in the 9300 block of South Luella Avenue and taken to bond court.

Was anyone in Humboldt Park that afternoon able to see or record what happened on West Thomas Street?
