Tyjuan Willingham was 19 when he was shot to death on July 1, 2016, in Ford Heights, a suburb of Chicago Heights, Illinois. The shooting occurred about 10:30 a.m. in the driveway of a house in the 1400 block of 14th Place. Tyjuan was with his cousin, Duboris Harden, and four other people when an argument between Tyjuan and Duboris escalated. Duboris pulled out a semi-automatic firearm and shot Tyjuan multiple times.

Officers who responded to a shots-fired call found Tyjuan on the ground with at least three gunshot wounds. He was taken to Franciscan St. James Health in Chicago Heights and was pronounced dead at 2:18 p.m. the same day. The Cook County medical examiner ruled the death a homicide. Duboris Harden, then 22 and on parole for a past burglary conviction, fled but was arrested less than a mile from the scene and charged with first-degree murder; a judge ordered him held without bond at a July 5, 2016 court appearance.

Is there anyone who knew Tyjuan or was at the scene who can share details about what led to the argument?
