Paul J. King, 51, was shot to death on August 6, 2015, in Chicago’s Morgan Park neighborhood. He was found near his home with gunshot wounds to the chest and back next to a gray car in the 1300-block of West 108th Place at about 1:20 a.m. The Cook County medical examiner confirmed his identity.

King was a well-known barber in the neighborhood and was called PK by friends. He lived with Keondra Lee and her family, who had taken him in during difficult times, and was noted for his dedication to his children. Neighbors reported hearing multiple gunshots that night, but no one witnessed the shooter and no arrests or suspects have been identified.

His killing came months after his 7-year-old son, Elajah Dace, was shot in the shoulder in the same area; that earlier shooting led to a charge against a 16-year-old. The investigation into King’s death remains open and the police are asking anyone with information to come forward. Does anyone who knew Paul or was in Morgan Park that night have information that could help the family find answers?
