Derrick McIntyre, 26, was shot and killed at his home in the 7800 block of South Coles Avenue, Chicago, on January 20, 2015. The shooting happened about 10:10 a.m. after McIntyre returned from a corner store and was confronted by 26-year-old Christopher Garcia, who attempted to rob him. McIntyre refused to open his apartment door, saying his pregnant girlfriend and their baby were inside; the girlfriend watched through a peephole, called 911, and fled with the baby.

McIntyre was struck multiple times and died of gunshot wounds to his chest, torso, back, wrist, and left hand at Advocate Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn at 10:44 a.m. Garcia, found hiding under a tarp about one and a half blocks away, was charged with first-degree murder, murder while committing another forcible felony, and attempted robbery with the discharge of a firearm. His prior convictions included drug charges and burglary.

Does anyone have information about McIntyre, his family, or the events that morning?
