Damajia Lashawn Bell, a 26-year-old African American man, was killed on September 29, 2020, in Chicago’s South Shore neighborhood. The shooting happened around 2:40 a.m. on the 1600 block of East 68th Street. Bell and another man were standing on the sidewalk when shots were fired; Bell was taken to the University of Chicago Medical Center and pronounced dead. The Cook County medical examiner ruled the death a homicide and found Bell had been shot 12 times.

Surveillance footage captured the moments before and during the shooting, showing 29-year-old Darnell Lemons standing over Bell and firing into his body. Investigators say video and bullet marks on the sidewalk contradicted Lemons’ initial statement that he had been aiming at someone else down the street. Prosecutors say Lemons later admitted he was the person on camera who shot Bell. Lemons was arrested, charged with first-degree murder, denied bail, and was on probation at the time of the killing.

Does anyone have information about Bell’s movements that night or additional footage from the 1600 block of East 68th Street?
