Trevolus Pickett, a 20-year-old African American man, was killed on April 18, 2014, in Chicago. The shooting happened about 11:15 p.m. in the 5200 block of West Congress Parkway during an armed robbery. He was shot in the head and was pronounced dead at Mount Sinai Hospital less than an hour later. The Cook County Medical Examiner’s office listed multiple gunshot wounds as the cause of death and ruled it a homicide.

An investigation identified 22-year-old Shannon Williams, from the Far South Side of Chicago, as the person who fatally shot Pickett. Williams was arrested on May 30, 2014, by Chicago Police Fugitive Apprehension Officers and the FBI Violent Crimes Task Force and charged with first-degree murder, three counts of armed robbery with a firearm, and one count of issuance of a warrant. The shooting occurred during a weekend that saw multiple shootings in the city, and the community said it was deeply affected by Pickett’s death.
