Josiah Hanson, a 28-year-old African American man from Peoria, Illinois, was killed on June 20, 2021. He was found inside an apartment building near Crestwood and Twelve Oaks Drive in the early morning suffering from a gunshot wound. Transported to OSF Saint Francis Medical Center, he was pronounced dead at 4:10 a.m.; the autopsy listed severe internal bleeding from a single gunshot wound to the torso as the cause of death.

Hanson was one of two victims in the double homicide; 19-year-old Rashad M. Williams was found outside the same apartment building with multiple gunshot wounds and was pronounced dead at the scene. The Peoria Police Department opened an investigation and has asked the public and CrimeStoppers for help. No arrests have been announced and the investigation remains ongoing.

Did anyone in the area near Crestwood and Twelve Oaks Drive that morning see or hear anything that could help investigators?
