Keonte A. Cook, a 19-year-old African American man from Joliet, Illinois, was shot and killed in the early hours of May 11, 2018. The shooting happened in the 1400 block of North Center Street; Cook suffered a fatal gunshot wound to the head and was pronounced dead at 2:58 a.m. The Will County Coroner’s Office has ruled the death a homicide.

Joliet police opened an investigation but have not publicly identified any arrests or suspects. Reports note investigators have struggled to find witnesses willing to come forward. Cook had prior minor run-ins with the law earlier in 2017–2018, including a March 2018 two-day jail sentence after pleading guilty to obstructing a peace officer and an arrest in September 2017 for driving without a license, driving without insurance, and resisting arrest.

Does anyone in the Joliet area have information about that night or Keonte’s movements around May 11, 2018?
