Devin Pope, a 23-year-old African American man, was shot and killed on August 1, 2014, in the South Shore neighborhood of Chicago. He was found in the entryway of an apartment building on the 6700 block of South Clyde Avenue in the early morning, around 3:40 a.m., and was pronounced dead at 3:55 a.m. The wound was to his head.

Police arrested 20-year-old Stanley Parker of the 7700 block of South East End Avenue and charged him with first-degree murder. Prosecutors said the shooting was linked to a romantic dispute: Pope had been dating a 23-year-old woman for about three weeks who had previously been in a relationship with Parker for roughly two-and-a-half years. The woman heard the gunshot as she returned downstairs, found Pope on the walkway inside the building’s iron fence, and reported seeing Parker at the scene holding a small black object before he fled. The woman later told police what she had seen; her uncle confronted Parker that day and Parker admitted to the shooting and was taken into custody and held without bail.

Does anyone have information about Devin, the woman involved, or the events that night that could shed more light on what happened?
