Seventeen-year-old Kahlif Norwood was shot and killed in Chicago’s Uptown neighborhood on September 15, 2025, around 12:20 a.m. He was standing in or near an alley off the 5000 block of North Winthrop Avenue when a group of eight males approached. One person in the group opened fire, striking him multiple times. He was taken to Illinois Masonic Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead.

Area 3 detectives opened a homicide investigation. Witnesses and early police information describe the assailants only as a group of eight males. Surveillance footage reportedly showed several suspects fleeing south on Winthrop and then west on Argyle, but no detailed descriptions or identifying information have been released. Family members said Norwood was visiting friends in Uptown when he was killed and that he had survived a previous shooting in the same area two years earlier. No arrests or public suspect identifications had been announced; detectives asked anyone with information to come forward.

If anyone was in the Argyle and Winthrop area that night or has surveillance footage that could help, can you share what you know?
