Flamond Williams, a 41-year-old African American man, was shot and killed on February 28, 2022, on the sidewalk in the 4600 block of South Cottage Grove in the Bronzeville neighborhood of Chicago. The shooting happened about 2:50 p.m. after an argument with an unidentified individual who pulled out a gun and shot Williams in the abdomen. He was taken to Provident Hospital and pronounced dead at 8:35 p.m. that evening.

No arrests have been announced; the Chicago Police Department is seeking information and leads to identify the shooter. Williams’ killing came two weeks after a 65-year-old man, Lucullus Lee Jr., was beaten to death on the same block, a sequence that has increased local concern about violence in the area.

Does anyone in Bronzeville have information about the February 28 shooting or remember seeing anything on South Cottage Grove that afternoon?
