Keyontae Hodges was 22 when he was killed in a drive-by shooting on August 24, 2019, in East Garfield Park on Chicago’s West Side. At about 4:40 p.m. he was standing on the sidewalk in the 3700 block of West Ohio Street when a silver Infiniti drove by and opened fire. Hodges was struck multiple times, taken to Stroger Hospital, and later pronounced dead; an autopsy confirmed multiple gunshot wounds and the death was ruled a homicide.

Area North detectives describe the case as difficult: witnesses were scarce, the shooters fled quickly, and no arrests have been made. Hodges’ family and friends have spoken publicly about their grief and urged for more police presence and community engagement to curb violence in the neighborhood. The investigation remains open.

If anyone saw the silver Infiniti that day or has information about the shooting, please come forward to help bring justice for Keyontae Hodges.
