Isaac Hidalgo, a 39-year-old Hispanic man, was shot and killed inside a third-floor apartment in the 1500 block of West North Avenue in West Town, Chicago, on March 21, 2021. The shooting happened about 6:30 a.m.; Hidalgo was struck in the abdomen and later pronounced dead at Illinois Masonic Medical Center. The Cook County medical examiner listed the cause of death as a gunshot wound to the abdomen.

Police say the shooter was someone Hidalgo knew, so investigators have been concentrating on people within his social circle rather than treating the attack as a random act. Area Five detectives are handling the case and continue to gather evidence and interview witnesses. No arrests have been announced.
