Jamal Webb, a 23-year-old African American man, was shot and killed on June 2, 2017, in Chicago’s Chatham neighborhood. Webb was near his home on the 7800 block of South Langley Avenue when a man identified as 21-year-old Kirk Thompson exited a gray Chevrolet Impala, chased him, and pursued him into an unlocked vestibule of an apartment building on the 7800 block of Champlain Avenue. Thompson shot Webb multiple times; wounds to Webb’s right temple, right eye, right cheek, and right chest proved fatal. Webb was later pronounced dead at Jackson Park Hospital.

Chicago police arrested Thompson about 30 minutes after the shooting. Thompson, who was described as a rear passenger in the Impala, was charged with first-degree murder and held on $1 million bail before Cook County Judge Donald Panarese Jr. The case had a next court date scheduled for August 9, 2017.

If anyone knew Webb, saw him that day, or has information about the shooting, please come forward.
