Frank Aguilar, 32, was fatally shot on the night of November 12, 2019, in Chicago’s Little Village while carrying a bag of laundry to his family’s home. Wearing his nursing scrubs after a shift, he was struck when a gray Jeep Commander rolled past in the 3700 block of West 32nd Street and gunfire erupted; two .45-caliber shell casings were recovered. Aguilar was rushed to Mount Sinai Hospital, where he died. Family members described him as a hardworking, compassionate registered nurse at Misericordia Home, the first in his family to graduate college, with a fiancée and a close-knit family mourning at the corner where he fell.

Investigators said the killing was a tragic case of mistaken identity amid a gang feud and that Aguilar had no gang ties. Detectives traced the Jeep’s movements using private surveillance, city cameras and cell-phone records, noting a red laser visible with muzzle flashes as the vehicle crept by. The SUV was linked to the brother-in-law of 19-year-old Armando Lopez; police alleged Lopez borrowed and drove the Jeep. Three days after the shooting Lopez led officers on a high-speed pursuit, crashed and was arrested.

Are there any witnesses or neighbors who remember seeing the gray Jeep or activity in that block on the night of November 12, 2019?
