Eliyahu Moscowitz, 24, was fatally shot on the evening of October 1, 2018, while walking along the bike path near the 1100 block of West Lunt Avenue in Loyola Park. A passerby found him with a single gunshot wound to the head around 10:20 p.m.; he was pronounced dead at the scene. Moscowitz worked as a kosher supervisor at a supermarket and was remembered for his kindness and dedication to his faith.

His killing occurred about 36 hours after 73-year-old Douglass Watts was shot in the head while walking his dog on the morning of September 30, 2018, in the 1400 block of West Sherwin Avenue, just blocks away. Ballistics linked both homicides to the same firearm, and surveillance captured a masked individual in black near Watts’ murder who displayed a distinctive outward-turned gait described as a duck walk or limp. No arrest has been made; the suspect has been called the Duck Walk Killer and remains unidentified and at large.

If anyone knew Moscowitz or saw suspicious activity in Rogers Park that weekend, please come forward with information.
