On October 4, 2023, 17-year-old Chad Greenenwald of Fox Lake was shot and killed in Round Lake Beach, Illinois. Police responded about 8:20 p.m. to a 911 call near Cedar Lake and Rollins roads and found a vehicle struck by gunfire at a gas station. Greenenwald was in the passenger seat with gunshot wounds to the chest and was taken to Advocate Condell Medical Center in Libertyville, where he was pronounced dead.

Investigators say Greenenwald had been in a vehicle with the driver and another passenger and had stopped near Midland Drive and Sycamore Drive, apparently to meet someone. At least one person on foot approached the car and opened fire, then fled on foot; the vehicle then drove to the gas station. Neighbors reported hearing shots and seeing a car speed away. The Lake County Major Crime Task Force and Round Lake Police Department are investigating; no arrests have been announced. Anyone with information is asked to contact the Round Lake Police Department at 847-546-8112.

If anyone knew Chad, was in the area that evening, or has information about who approached the vehicle, please come forward to investigators.
