Adarius D. Hayes, 21, was shot and killed on August 5, 2015, in Chicago. He was found dead in a car on the 7500 block of South Damen Avenue in the Auburn Gresham neighborhood during the early morning hours.

The killing is described as part of a series of violent exchanges tied to ongoing gang rivalries in the area. Adarius was reported to have been a member of the Killer Ward Gangster Disciples, which had conflicts with the Bang Bang Gang, an offshoot of the Black P Stones; those feuds led to multiple violent incidents that affected gang members and residents and contributed to a cycle of retaliation that included other shootings later that year.

If anyone knew Adarius or has information about the August 5 shooting, please come forward.
