Ivan Almaguer was 19 when he was wounded in a shooting on June 1, 2021, in the 4700 block of South Ada Street in Chicago’s Back of the Yards neighborhood. He was with two other people when shots came from a passing gray SUV; Ivan was hit in the head and hand, an 18-year-old man was shot in the foot, and a third person suffered a graze wound to the thigh. Ivan was taken to Kindred Hospital Chicago North and died there on July 11, 2021. The Cook County medical examiner ruled his death a homicide due to the gunshot wounds he suffered.

The Chicago Police Department has been investigating and working to identify suspects, but no arrests have been announced and the case remains unsolved. Reports note investigators have faced challenges, including a lack of witnesses willing to come forward. Ivan’s family has urged anyone with information to contact police. Does anyone in the area have information that could help bring answers in this case?
