David T. Murrell, 34, was found shot to death in his car on January 5, 2017, in the parking lot of the Walgreens at 8700 S. Kedzie Ave., Evergreen Park, Illinois. Witnesses reported hearing gunshots around 6:45 p.m., and Evergreen Park police discovered Murrell already deceased inside the vehicle. The Cook County medical examiner ruled the death a homicide from a gunshot wound.

Witnesses said they saw three males fleeing the scene, and investigators concluded Murrell was specifically targeted. The South Suburban Major Crimes Task Force and the Evergreen Park Police Department identified a suspect, 32-year-old Jamal Parks of Gurnee. On January 6, 2017, task force members located Parks on a Metra train in Deerfield; officers say Parks opened fire during an attempted apprehension, officers returned fire, and Parks was wounded and later pronounced dead at a hospital. With Parks identified and killed the following day, the investigation into Murrell’s murder was closed.

Are there readers who knew Murrell or who saw anything in the Walgreens parking lot that night?
