Sixteen-year-old Jammie Holmes was shot in the Gresham neighborhood of Chicago on October 14, 2018. He was found unconscious with a gunshot wound to the head in the 1700 block of West 85th Street at about 7:45 p.m. and taken to Advocate Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn, where he died the next day at 11:58 a.m. The Cook County medical examiner ruled the death a homicide.

There were no witnesses to the shooting, and police said they had no details about an attack because of the lack of witnesses and the victim’s condition when found. Area South detectives had not identified any suspects or made any arrests; the investigation remained open.

Jammie’s family and community continue to grieve a young life ended by gun violence. If anyone has information about what happened that night, please come forward.
