Malik K. Bingham, 20, was shot and killed on February 22, 2017, in the Chatham neighborhood of Chicago. He and his 20-year-old pregnant girlfriend, Wilteeah Jones, were found shot to death in the 7600 block of South Champlain Avenue after leaving a 75th birthday celebration at the family’s south side home. Both were pronounced dead at an area hospital, and the couple’s unborn daughter, whom they had named Mileah, also died.

Investigators say the shooting was not random and that both victims were targeted in a conflict involving Malik Bingham. Police records described Bingham as a documented gang member with prior arrests for gun possession, resisting arrest, and drug-related offenses; family members disputed that portrayal, saying he had recently earned his G.E.D. and was trying to get his life on track. A hidden gun was recovered from the vehicle the couple occupied.

No arrests have been announced. Anyone with information about the killings is asked to come forward.
