Myqwon Blanchard, a 22-year-old African American man from Chicago, was killed on May 31, 2020, at North Riverside Park Mall in the western suburbs of Chicago. He was pursued behind the mall’s Olive Garden by an unidentified gunman who, according to reports, held a weapon with both hands and fired multiple close-range shots after Blanchard fell to the sidewalk. Officers found Blanchard there; he was taken to Loyola University Medical Center and pronounced dead.

The shooting occurred amid chaos and looting at the mall. A 12-second video clip showing the chase and the shooting was released, but the shooter escaped in a waiting car and no arrests have been announced. Police have not released further descriptions of the suspect or the getaway vehicle, and investigators report few leads.

Anyone who was at North Riverside Park Mall on May 31, 2020, or who recognizes the person in the video or has information about the shooting or the getaway car is asked to come forward.
