On September 12, 2020, a birthday party in the basement of an apartment building in the 100 block of North Pine Avenue in Chicago’s Austin neighborhood ended in a deadly shooting. An argument began after a female attendee believed someone had called her baby girl. Timmy Jordan, 39 and a resident of the building, became agitated, ordered certain guests to leave, then produced a firearm and fired multiple rounds into the crowd along the driveway.

Among those hit was 35-year-old Michael Mickey, who suffered gunshot wounds to his chest and arm. Despite being mortally wounded, Mickey, a concealed carry license holder, returned fire and struck Jordan twice. Mickey was taken to Stroger Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. Another victim, 47-year-old Lunyea Wilson, also died at Stroger Hospital. Three others were wounded and treated in good condition.

Jordan was later arrested and charged with two counts of first-degree murder and three counts of attempted first-degree murder; he was on electronic monitoring for a prior gun-related offense and has seven felony convictions. Did anyone at the party or nearby see what led to the confrontation or the shooting?
