Daimmyon Hackman, a 27-year-old African American man from Bloomington, Illinois, was fatally shot in Chicago’s Chatham neighborhood on November 24, 2017. The shooting happened about 1:26 a.m. in the 7500 block of South St. Lawrence Avenue while Hackman was sitting in a vehicle. An individual approached, displayed a handgun and announced a robbery; Hackman refused to comply and was shot in the left armpit. He was pronounced dead at Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn at 2:28 a.m.

Investigators say Hackman was among several victims during a violent stretch over the Thanksgiving weekend in Chicago. No arrests have been announced and the case remains open as authorities seek information to identify the person responsible. The lack of resolution in this case underscores broader concerns about gun violence in the city.

If anyone has information about Hackman, the shooting, or the person who approached the vehicle that night, please contact the authorities handling the case.
