Nathaniel Roberts, a 42-year-old African American man, was found shot to death on September 26, 2019, in Chicago, Illinois. He suffered multiple gunshot wounds in a neighborhood noted for high crime, and the scene and manner of the attack led investigators to consider the possibility of a targeted execution-style killing.

Investigators reported disputes Roberts had with several people in his community and considered gang-related motives or personal vendettas. Surveillance footage and forensic evidence were recovered and numerous interviews conducted. A local gang member who had prior altercations with Roberts was arrested and questioned but later released for lack of concrete evidence. Authorities also examined the theory of a contract killing but found no substantial support for it.

Several hearings have taken place as the legal process continues and community members have provided tips to investigators. Does anyone have information about Roberts’ disputes or presence in that neighborhood around late September 2019 that could help the ongoing inquiry?
