Kevin Baker was 19 when he was shot on January 16, 2014, while walking with his cousin on the 6200 block of South Campbell Avenue in Chicago. The two were approached by two men who demanded their cell phones; Kevin and his cousin handed over their phones, but Kevin was shot in the head and died two days later in the hospital.

Chicago police arrested 18-year-old William Paschal in connection with the killing. Paschal was charged with first-degree murder and two counts of armed robbery with a firearm and was held on $1 million bail. Prosecutors say Paschal and an accomplice demanded the phones and then shot Kevin; the defense contended Paschal had been coerced by the other suspect. The jury found Paschal guilty of first-degree murder and armed robbery.

Kevin’s family and community responded to his death by calling attention to gun violence and working to preserve his memory. Does anyone have information about Kevin, the incident on South Campbell Avenue, or the people involved?
