Enrique Hernandez, a 27-year-old Hispanic man, was killed on November 20, 2015, in West Chicago, Illinois. His body was found on the side of the road near High Lake and DuPage avenues around 11 p.m. that night and he was taken to Central DuPage Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

The DuPage County Sheriff’s Office identified Hernandez as a documented gang member and said he was targeted in an isolated incident. Investigators reported that he was shot in the head by his cousin, James Hernandez, while they were in a car; after the shooting James allegedly stole Enrique’s cell phone, wallet, and money clip and then pushed his body out of the vehicle. James Hernandez, 22 at the time, was arrested and charged with first-degree murder and later pleaded guilty. In January 2018 he was sentenced to 35 years in prison with a requirement to serve 100% of the sentence before parole eligibility.

Did anyone in the West Chicago area know Enrique or have information about the events of November 20, 2015?
