Seventeen-year-old Jasean Francis was shot and killed on June 20, 2020, in South Chicago. The shooting happened around 5 p.m. after Jasean and two friends, including 16-year-old Charles Riley, went into a store to buy candy and exchanged comments with 19-year-old Laroy Battle about his height. After they left the store, Battle approached the group and began shooting. Jasean was struck in the back, chest, and left hand; Charles Riley was shot in the back and left leg. Both boys were taken to the University of Chicago Hospital and later died. A third teenager with them was not injured.

Chicago police recovered nine shell casings at the scene and used security camera footage to identify Battle. He was later found hiding in a motel and arrested; he was charged with two counts of first-degree murder and possession of a controlled substance. Family members and the community remembered Jasean as kind-hearted, fond of video games and snacks, and someone who regularly visited a hospital gift shop and spoke with seniors. A prayer vigil was held near the scene.

Did anyone in the South Chicago area recognize Jasean or the group that day and see what happened?
