On March 30, 2017, Edwin Davis, a 32-year-old African American man, was fatally shot inside Nadia Fish and Chicken in the 7500 block of South Coles Avenue in Chicago’s South Shore. He was one of four people killed in the incident; Emmanuel C. Stokes, 28, was also shot inside the restaurant, and brothers Dillon Jackson, 20, and Raheem Jackson, 19, were found shot in nearby parking lots. All four were pronounced dead at the scene.

Investigators described the attack as retaliatory, linked to the murder of 37-year-old Jerry Jacobs the day before; Jacobs was the father of Maurice Harris, 19, who was later charged with four counts of first-degree murder in the restaurant killings. Prosecutors dropped those charges in June 2020 after reviewing the evidence and determining eyewitness accounts were unreliable, leaving insufficient proof for prosecution. No other individuals have been publicly identified or charged in connection with these deaths, and the case remains unresolved.

If anyone has information about the shooting at Nadia Fish and Chicken or the people killed that night, please share what is known with investigators.
