Ledon Ervin Jr., 16, was shot to death on November 30, 2020, in a South Loop parking garage in Chicago. Two males wearing black ski masks exited a black vehicle and fired into a parked car on the garage’s first floor; Ledon, sitting in the passenger seat, was struck twice in the face and later pronounced dead at Northwestern Memorial Hospital. The Cook County medical examiner ruled the death a homicide.

Officers say the shooters fled; witnesses in the BMW described two Black males in ski masks, one with dreadlocks, last seen heading eastbound on 8th Street in an older black car. A gun was found in Ledon’s waistband, and detectives noted the incident may be connected to a party at a nearby hotel. Area Three detectives are actively investigating and no arrests have been announced.

Ledon attended Roberto Clemente High School and was described as someone who loved music, had tattoos, and enjoyed time with family and friends. If anyone has information about the shooting or the people seen at the scene, please come forward.
