Jeremy Scullark, 28, was shot multiple times in the chest and killed on April 19, 2017, in Chicago. The shooting occurred about 5:10 p.m. on the Dan Ryan Expressway ramp near Cermak Road and Wentworth Avenue as he was driving home after dropping a friend at the Red Line; he was pronounced dead at the scene at 5:24 p.m. Another man in the vehicle was wounded but survived with non-life-threatening injuries.

Jeremy ran a ride-share business and was engaged to Joy DeVaughn, with wedding plans later that year in Thailand. Family and friends held a vigil at the ramp, leaving flowers, balloons, and portraits; his mother Tracey Scullark said he was not involved in gang activity and called him an innocent victim.

Authorities arrested 20-year-old Jeremiah M. Holt of Englewood and charged him with first-degree murder, armed robbery, attempted murder, and aggravated battery with a firearm. Reports say Holt exited a vehicle on the Chinatown feeder ramp, fired into Jeremy’s car, and was caught after a brief foot chase. If anyone has information about the shooting or remembers seeing activity on the Dan Ryan ramp that afternoon, please share what was seen.
