Quincy Ferguson Jr., a 28-year-old African American man from North Chicago, was killed on August 2, 2020, in the Lawndale neighborhood on Chicago’s West Side. Officers responding to ShotSpotter notifications found Quincy Ferguson Jr. and another 28-year-old man, Darren Sims of Lawndale, unresponsive with gunshot wounds in the 2300 block of South Kolin Avenue; both were pronounced dead at the scene.

Investigators say the two men were inside a white Chevrolet Cruze when a blue Volkswagen Touareg circled the block, passed them twice, then parked near a nearby alley. Two suspects exited the Volkswagen, opened the Cruze’s door and fired at least 27 shots with two separate .40-caliber handguns, killing both occupants. Security camera footage reportedly captured the vehicle and the shooters; the Touareg’s license plate was registered to 24-year-old Ladelle Carpenter of Austin, who was charged with two counts of first-degree murder and held without bail. He had identified himself and the Volkswagen in stills from the video.

The investigation into the murders continues. If anyone has information about the shooting or the vehicle involved, what can be shared with investigators?
