Andre Bunton, a 37-year-old African American man from Dolton, Illinois, was shot and killed in Chicago’s South Loop on the night of July 18, 2013. The shooting happened about 11:25 p.m. while Bunton sat in his brand new Mustang convertible with the top down in the 200 block of East 16th Place. At least one bullet struck his chest. He tried to drive away but lost control and hit two parked cars, then was taken to Northwestern Memorial Hospital and pronounced dead shortly after midnight.

Bunton worked as a manager at a pizza place owned by the Harris family and was described by friends and family as hardworking and helpful; he was the brother-in-law of Illinois State Senator Napoleon Harris III and was soon to become a father. He had been visiting friends and had just finished dinner near the scene, and the person on the phone with him reportedly heard a commotion followed by gunfire. Some have suggested the shooting may have been an attempted carjacking, but no suspects were identified and no arrests were reported. Area Central detectives were investigating.

Did anyone in the South Loop that night see the Mustang, the shooting, or anything that could help investigators?
