Rocky John Weekes Sr., a 31-year-old man from Chicago, was shot and killed on September 8, 2015, in the Old Irving Park neighborhood. The shooting happened about 3:05 a.m. on the 3300 block of North Keeler Avenue after Weekes, who was unarmed, approached an individual later identified as Daniel Guana. Guana reportedly produced a dark-colored revolver and fired two to three times, striking Weekes in the abdomen and leg. Weekes was taken to Advocate Illinois Masonic Medical Center but died of his injuries.

A relative of Weekes witnessed the shooting and identified the shooter by long hair and a facial tattoo, but Guana was not immediately questioned. Cold case detectives re-interviewed that relative in July 2020, who again identified Guana. Guana was arrested after his release from the Shawnee Correctional Center and charged with Weekes’s murder; he was held on $250,000 bail. Weekes was a father of four and engaged at the time of his death, remembered by family as a loving father and a fighter till the end.

Does anyone have information about Weekes, his movements that night, or the person identified as the shooter?
