Timothy D. Foreman Jr., a 40-year-old African American man from Peoria, Illinois, was found with apparent gunshot wounds near W. Beverly Court and Knoxville Avenue late on March 8, 2022. He was discovered at about 11:36 p.m. and, despite life-saving efforts, was pronounced dead at 12:21 a.m. on March 9, 2022. Timothy was remembered for his love of rap music, spending time with family and friends, and his dedication to his children; he was described as big hearted and willing to help those close to him.

On June 24, 2022, 22-year-old Chazier Johnson was arrested and charged with first-degree murder in connection with the shooting. During that operation, officers also detained 36-year-old Elliot Sanders and 40-year-old Demarcus Russell; both were found in possession of illegal firearms and were charged on weapons-related counts. All three were taken to the Peoria County Jail and the investigation remains ongoing.
