Tyrone Long, a 33-year-old African American man, was killed on July 4, 2020, in the South Shore neighborhood of Chicago.

Long was struck multiple times in the chest and taken by a friend to Jackson Park Hospital, where he died at 10:12 p.m. The Cook County medical examiner’s office ruled his death a homicide.

Two other people were wounded in the same incident: a 44-year-old man shot in the thigh and transported to the University of Chicago Medical Center in fair condition, and a 27-year-old woman who suffered an ankle graze and declined treatment. Area Two detectives are investigating, no suspects have been identified, and no arrests have been announced. The motive for the shooting remains unclear.
