Dennis Sackmaster, 41, was shot and killed in an Albany Park alley on the Northwest Side of Chicago in the early hours of May 16, 2019. He was standing in the 4900 block of North Kedzie Avenue at about 12:24 a.m. when someone in a passing red van opened fire, striking him twice in the abdomen. He was taken to Saint Francis Hospital in Evanston and pronounced dead; an autopsy ruled his death a homicide from multiple gunshot wounds.

Chicago police and the Cook County medical examiner’s office handled the case, and Area North detectives led the investigation. A person of interest was briefly brought in for questioning but was released without charges. No arrests had been made and the motive and shooter’s identity were not clear.

Does anyone in Albany Park remember seeing a red van in the 4900 block of North Kedzie Avenue around midnight on May 16, 2019 or have other information about this shooting?
