Savoy R. Young, a 22-year-old African-American man from Chicago’s South Side, was found dead in an alley in the South Chicago neighborhood on January 31, 2015. Police responding to reports of gunfire located Young on the 8100 block of South Chappel Avenue with multiple gunshot wounds; he was pronounced dead at the scene. He was identified as a resident of the 8200 block of South Luella Avenue, a short distance away.

His death occurred amid a wave of shootings across Chicago that weekend, and contemporaneous reports noted dozens of homicide victims by the end of January 2015. Neighbors and an online remembrance recall that Young had grown up locally and had a four-year-old daughter. No suspects or arrests were announced in the days and months after the killing, and the case remains listed among unsolved homicides associated with the Chicago Police Department.
