Olawale Giwa, 23, was fatally shot on September 9, 2013, in the South Chicago neighborhood of Chicago. The shooting happened about 9:10 a.m. while he was standing outside in the 8300 block of South Baltimore Avenue. An unidentified assailant approached and shot Giwa in the head, then fled in a black vehicle; Giwa was pronounced dead shortly afterward.

The case came amid a broader wave of shootings in Chicago during 2013 and in an area battling persistent crime and safety problems often linked to gang conflicts and disputes. No suspect identity was available in initial reports and the shooter remained unidentified at that time.

Did anyone in the South Chicago area have information about Giwa’s movements that morning or about a black vehicle seen near South Baltimore Avenue around 9:10 a.m.?
