Joseph Barbee, a 27-year-old African American man from Chicago, was shot and killed on July 15, 2021, in the Auburn Gresham neighborhood on the 7700 block of South Seeley Avenue. He was riding a Divvy bicycle when a gunman on foot approached and fired multiple times. Barbee was taken to Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn but died of his injuries. He was a father of two.

Police reported limited progress, citing a lack of witnesses willing to come forward; his aunt Candace Henley has publicly urged the community to speak up. The case remains open and under investigation.

Anyone with information about the shooting or who may have seen activity in the 7700 block of South Seeley Avenue on July 15, 2021, is asked to come forward.
