Antonio B. Hernandez, a 29-year-old Hispanic man, was shot and killed on April 19, 2022, in the Back of the Yards neighborhood on Chicago’s South Side. He was outside in the 4700 block of South Loomis Street at about 6:15 a.m. when an unidentified gunman approached and opened fire. Hernandez was struck multiple times and, despite being taken to the University of Chicago Medical Center, was pronounced dead shortly after arrival. He lived on the same block where the shooting occurred.

Chicago police and the Cook County medical examiner’s office confirmed the shooting but did not release information about a motive or suspects. No arrests have been announced and the investigation remains open. If anyone knew Antonio, saw activity on South Loomis Street that morning, or has information that could help the investigation, will you contact the authorities?
