Devon D. Thang Varner, an 18-year-old African American male, was shot and killed on September 13, 2011, near 61st Street and King Drive in Chicago. Varner was seated in a parked car with friends when two gunmen approached. One assailant, identified in reports as 24-year-old Christopher Hughes, pointed a handgun at Varner, said this is for Hottie, and then opened fire.

Varner crawled out of the car window and tried to run but was chased and shot in the back by Hughes. He collapsed and later died at Stroger Hospital. Surveillance footage from a nearby convenience store captured the lead-up to the shooting and the suspects fleeing the scene.

Hughes, who was on parole for a 2009 weapons conviction, was identified by a witness and charged with first-degree murder and held without bail. The second gunman has not been charged and remains unidentified. Does anyone have information about the identity of the second shooter or about who Hottie might be?
