Jaquan Diario Reed, 23, was shot and killed on January 1, 2018, in the Avalon Park neighborhood of Chicago. The shooting happened about 8:50 p.m. in the 8100 block of South Stony Island Avenue; Reed died of a fatal gunshot wound and was pronounced dead at the scene.

Authorities later charged Wynton Stewart with first-degree murder in connection with Reed’s death. Prosecutors said evidence including blood and a bullet tied Stewart to the shooting, and the Cook County State’s Attorney’s Office pursued the case.

Reed’s killing is presented as part of the city’s wider struggle with gun violence and its effects on families and neighborhoods. If anyone knew Jaquan, saw activity on South Stony Island Avenue that night, or has information relevant to the case, please come forward.
