Antwan Washington, 45, was shot dead inside the Englewood home he had recently moved into with his fiancée, Jennifer Lacey, and their family in the early morning hours of March 28, 2026. According to police, the shooting occurred around 5 a.m. A gray sedan drove past the building and gunfire was directed into the apartment; early accounts said shots were fired from inside the vehicle, while a later report said two people exited a gray four-door sedan and fired handguns into the unit. Washington was struck in the head and pronounced dead at the scene; investigators recovered numerous shell casings outside and Lacey said 16 shots were fired toward the home, four striking the building and one striking Washington.

Washington worked as a Chipotle manager, recently moved to manage a Bridgeport location, and was described by his family as a devoted father of five, a loving partner, son and brother who enjoyed video games with his sons, barbecues and music. Lacey said she initially thought the gunfire came from outside and only realized he had been shot when she found him on the couch. No arrests have been reported and police have not publicly identified suspects; Area One detectives were handling the investigation. Lacey said the couple kept to themselves and could not understand why their home would have been targeted.
