Martrell Swanson, a 28-year-old African American man from St. Paul, Minnesota, was fatally shot in the head on October 31, 2020, while visiting Dolton, Illinois. The shooting happened just before midnight in the 14600 block of Princeton Avenue. He was taken to Ingalls Memorial Hospital in Harvey, where he died; the Cook County medical examiner ruled his death a homicide.

Swanson’s killing was one of at least two fatal shootings in Dolton that Halloween; another victim, 33-year-old Johnnail Craig, was shot earlier that day. The investigation remained open and police asked anyone with information to come forward.

Did anyone living in or near Dolton that night see or hear anything that could help investigators?
