Cornelius Jordan, 21, was shot and killed on August 4, 2019, in Chicago’s Englewood neighborhood. Around 10:15 p.m. he was driving on the 6900-block of South Wentworth Avenue when a silver sedan pulled up alongside his vehicle and shots were fired. Cornelius died at the scene; his 20-year-old pregnant girlfriend was shot in the left arm and taken to the University of Chicago Medical Center in stable condition.

Family members describe Cornelius as a devoted son, brother and father who worked hard and cared for others. His mother Wanda Jordan recalled his last exchange with her, when she told him to be careful and he said he would be back. Police placed evidence markers at the scene and investigators continued to work the case, but no arrests or suspects have been publicly identified.

The shooting was one of many that weekend in Chicago. If anyone knew Cornelius, his movements that night, or has information that could help the investigation, please come forward. Would anyone reading this have information to share?
