Rashawn Gooden Jr., a 21-year-old African American man who lived in the 4800 block of West Augusta, was shot and killed the morning of February 16, 2016, in the West Side Austin neighborhood of Chicago. He was inside a convenience store in the 4900 block of West Division when he encountered 21-year-old Michael Dukes. After a brief exchange of words, Dukes followed Gooden out and fired about six times while standing in the store’s doorway. Investigators recovered six spent .45-caliber shell casings at the scene.

Gooden was taken to Mount Sinai Hospital and pronounced dead at 9:38 a.m. the same morning. Michael Dukes was charged with one count of first-degree murder and a misdemeanor count of marijuana possession; he was ordered held on $2.5 million bond. A witness reported hearing Dukes admit the shooting while on his cellphone the day after the killing and later said Dukes attempted to sell or trade a .45-caliber handgun to that witness.

Has anyone with knowledge of the store, the neighborhood, or the events that morning come forward with information?
