On May 5, 2024, 20-year-old Guillermo Caballero, known as Memito, was shot and killed in the Gage Park area of Chicago’s Southwest Side. The shooting happened about 3:15 a.m. at 59th Street and Western Avenue during a so-called street takeover. Caballero was driving through the intersection, not taking part in the takeover according to family and local authorities, when two gunmen fired multiple shots through the front windshield of his vehicle. Emergency responders pronounced him dead at the scene.

Caballero’s family described him as vibrant and supportive; he and his girlfriend Rocio Lemus, who had been together six years, were days away from moving out of the city to the southwest suburbs. Area One Detectives are investigating and asking for any photos or videos from the takeover to identify the shooters. No suspects are in custody. If anyone witnessed the shooting or has images or video from that night, can you share what you know with investigators?
