On April 21, 2024, a domestic shooting on the 5500 block of Babette Court in Oak Forest, Illinois, left 39-year-old Mohannad G. Othman dead. Othman was shot multiple times in the head and pronounced dead at 8:56 p.m. after being taken to a local hospital. Three other people were wounded: a 12-year-old girl struck while standing in a neighboring driveway and listed in stable condition; a 19-year-old man treated and released for a leg wound; and a 19-year-old woman admitted with a leg wound.

Oak Forest police apprehended 37-year-old Omar Zegar of Orland Park shortly after he fled the scene; he was taken into custody in the 5900 block of 159th Street where the injured 19-year-old woman was located. On April 23 Zegar was charged with one felony count of aggravated unlawful use of a weapon with a revoked FOID, and a detention hearing was set for April 24 at the Bridgeview Courthouse. The investigation remains ongoing and additional charges may be considered.

Does anyone have information about the shooting or the people involved that could help investigators?
