Richard Savary was an 18-year-old resident of Park Forest, Illinois, who was fatally shot near his home in the 300 block of Allegheny Street on November 30, 2016. He was taken to Stroger Hospital and pronounced dead at 11:40 p.m.; the Cook County medical examiner’s office confirmed his death and an autopsy was scheduled.

On the same day authorities arrested 18-year-old Oshea Scott of Chicago Heights and charged him with murder in connection with the shooting. At a bond hearing Scott was held in lieu of $750,000. The defense argued the shooting was accidental, while prosecutors pointed to a prior juvenile armed robbery conviction; the next court date was set for December 6, 2016.

The community reacted to the loss and the case raised questions about youth violence and safety in Park Forest. Did anyone in the area see or hear anything the night Richard was shot?
