Kieer Pargo, a 36-year-old man from Chicago, was killed on March 27, 2021, during an attempted armed robbery at a Citgo gas station in the 700 block of East 103rd Street on the Far South Side. The incident happened about 11:40 p.m. Pargo was seated in a parked vehicle with a friend when three male suspects approached and tried to take cash, shoes and the car. Surveillance footage later identified one suspect as 20-year-old Rodney Hawkins and showed the group at the gas station earlier that night.

One of Hawkins’ accomplices then returned fire, fatally wounding Pargo; he was pronounced dead at the University of Chicago Medical Center. Hawkins was charged with murder; the other suspected gunman and the third accomplice had not been charged at that time. Hawkins’ parents reported that their home was struck by gunfire shortly after the shooting and that they had encountered Hawkins at the gas station.

Who knew Kieer Pargo or was in that neighborhood that night and might have information about the other suspects or the minivan seen on surveillance?
