Charles Lee was 32 when he was shot and killed on May 17, 2014, in Chicago’s West Englewood neighborhood. He was found with multiple gunshot wounds and pronounced dead soon after emergency services arrived.

The shooting occurred in a part of the city that has long struggled with gang activity and a high homicide rate. Investigators faced difficulties typical of such cases, including limited witness cooperation amid fear of retaliation and mistrust of police. The community’s broader problems — poverty, few educational opportunities, and scarce resources — are cited as factors that contribute to persistent violence in West Englewood.

If anyone knew Charles Lee or has information about what happened on May 17, 2014, please come forward.
