Oliver William McCall Jr, 31, was fatally shot on October 15, 2021, on Chicago’s South Side in the South Shore neighborhood. He was found dead from multiple gunshot wounds behind the family’s building on South Yates near 79th Street after several shots were fired while he was walking his mother to a bus stop early that morning. One of his sisters viewed the scene before realizing the victim was her brother.

McCall Jr., the youngest son of former heavyweight champion Oliver McCall Sr., worked as an off-duty security guard, had recently started a business to fund a clothing line, and was a father and community mentor. Police said he may have been caught in crossfire during a rapid exchange of gunfire and were investigating whether an armed trio who crashed a stolen car was involved. No arrests had been announced and the motive remained unclear. His family launched a GoFundMe to cover funeral costs.

If anyone knew Oliver or saw activity near South Yates and 79th on October 15, 2021, please share information that could help his family and investigators.
