Kamari Belmont, 23, was shot and killed on March 6, 2017, shortly after being released from Cook County Jail in Chicago. Earlier he had faced murder charges in a 2015 shooting that killed Sorrell Marshall; those charges were dropped in January 2017 after prosecutors failed to provide a speedy trial. A friend had posted a $100,000 bond for Belmont on an unrelated robbery case, and as he was driven away from the jail an SUV pulled alongside the car and a gunman opened fire, killing him at the scene. The suspects fled after crashing their vehicle.

The killing happened immediately after Belmont left custody and involved an exchange of gunfire from a vehicle that then fled. If anyone witnessed the shooting, the getaway, or has information about the SUV or occupants, please come forward.
