Harold Stewart, a 63-year-old African American man, was fatally shot on October 31, 2017, in a basement apartment at 7321 S. Oglesby in Chicago’s South Shore neighborhood. Stewart had recently moved in with 68-year-old Lee Hall and the two men reportedly argued over Hall’s rule forbidding Stewart from having female visitors. Tension over that issue was said to be longstanding.

Responding to a call from Hall, emergency crews found Stewart bleeding from the mouth; he had been shot more than ten times, including wounds to the head, chest, both arms and hands, and graze wounds to the left cheek and right palm. Paramedics pronounced him dead at the scene. Forensic testing later showed gunshot residue on Hall’s hands, and he was arrested and charged with first-degree murder. Judge Stephanie Miller ordered Hall held without bail, with a next court date set for August 1, 2018.

Are there witnesses or neighbors who remember the men or the dispute and can help clarify what happened that day?
