Derrick L. Burns, a 22-year-old African American man, was shot to death on September 28, 2019, in Chicago’s Austin neighborhood. The shooting happened about 4 p.m. on the 700 block of North Cicero Avenue while Burns and a 28-year-old woman were stopped at a traffic light. A male suspect exited a white vehicle that had also stopped at the light and fired multiple shots, striking Burns in the head and chest and the woman in the torso.

Both victims drove themselves to West Suburban Medical Center in Oak Park; Burns was pronounced dead there and an autopsy ruled his death a homicide from multiple gunshot wounds. The woman was reported in good condition. Area North detectives are investigating and no arrests have been announced.

Who has information about that afternoon on North Cicero Avenue that could help investigators?
