Montrell Lee, 27, was shot and killed on August 13, 2020, in Morgan Park, Chicago. Around 11:35 p.m. Lee was driving through an alley in the 1000 block of West 108th Place when he was struck multiple times in the chest and back. He managed to drive a short distance before crashing into a light pole in the 10800 block of South Morgan Street and was taken to Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn, where he was pronounced dead. The Cook County medical examiner’s office ruled the death a homicide.

Benjamin Reese, also 27, was arrested and charged with first-degree murder. Prosecutors say Reese was in the alley talking with two others when Lee drove up, that after a brief exchange Reese produced a gun and fired at least seven shots into Lee’s car, and that a witness identified Reese as the shooter while cell phone records placed him at the scene. Reese was ordered held without bail and was due back in court on September 23, 2020. The motive remains unclear.

Does anyone have information about Montrell Lee, his movements that night, or the events in that alley?
