Moncreef Miller, a 26-year-old African American man, was shot dead on December 7, 2017, in the Austin neighborhood of Chicago. The shooting happened at about 2:42 p.m. while Miller was standing outside in the 1000 block of North Long Avenue. A vehicle pulled up, an individual got out and fired multiple shots; Miller died at the scene.

Miller’s death came months after his younger brother, Quinton Flowers, was also shot and killed just a few blocks away. Their mother, Tina Lyles, has said the family received no updates from law enforcement about Moncreef’s case, and low arrest rates for homicides in Chicago at the time deepened the family’s anguish. The family has since sought support from groups such as Chicago Survivors for counseling and assistance.

Are there readers who knew Moncreef or Quinton, or who have information about the shootings in that area in December 2017?
