Richard Dunlap, 33, of Cicero, Illinois, was shot and killed on July 13, 2019. Around 9:30 PM he and another person were walking on the sidewalk in the 2200 block of Central Avenue when a black Hummer stopped at a red light and a confrontation began. A bottle thrown from the sidewalk hit the Hummer’s hood; a passenger then produced a weapon and fired one shot that struck Dunlap in the arm and traveled into his chest. He was taken to Loyola University Medical Center in Maywood and pronounced dead at 9:54 PM; an autopsy confirmed the gunshot wound as the cause of death.

The Hummer fled but was stopped near the 5100 block of Cermak Road. Two passengers, David Aguirre-Gonzalez and Nicholas Aguirre, were arrested and charged in connection with the shooting. Aguirre-Gonzalez was charged with one count of first-degree murder for firing the weapon; Aguirre faced three counts of aggravated unlawful use of a weapon. Both were described as members of a Chicago street gang and were held in Cook County Jail without bail. No charges were filed against the driver or the fourth passenger.

The incident was said to have begun with an argument between Dunlap and the Hummer’s occupants and drew attention amid local efforts to curb gang-related violence. Does anyone have information about the confrontation that led to this shooting or about the people involved?
