Devon Lofton was a 7-year-old boy who died on March 20, 2016, after an accidental gunshot to the head at his home on South Aberdeen Street in Chicago’s Englewood neighborhood. The shooting happened about 3:50 p.m.; Devon was taken to Comer Children’s Hospital and was pronounced dead at 4:36 p.m. The Cook County Medical Examiner’s Office listed the cause of death as a gunshot wound to the head.

Reports say Devon’s 10-year-old brother brought the firearm into the house after finding it, and police were investigating how the child obtained the weapon and trying to lift fingerprints to identify the gun’s owner. Devon’s grandmother was reportedly at home; it was unclear whether other adults were present. Family and neighbors remembered Devon as a happy, playful child who had just finished kindergarten, and the case prompted local calls for secure storage of firearms.

Does anyone in Englewood remember Devon or have information about where the gun might have come from?
