Efrain Acevedo, a 21 year old Hispanic man, died on November 1, 2009, after a late‑night pursuit on Chicago’s Near West Side ended in gunfire. Family said he had been celebrating Halloween with his wife and friends when a dispute at a party led them to leave; another car followed. Near the 1800 block of West Ogden Avenue, shots were fired into the vehicle Acevedo was driving. He reached John H. Stroger Jr. Hospital but collapsed and died shortly afterward.

Witnesses described the shooter’s vehicle as a silver two‑door sedan, possibly a Monte Carlo, which closed distance and opened fire just before 2:00 a.m. Police reviewed neighborhood security cameras and asked the public for help identifying the suspect; no arrests had been reported. Acevedo’s relatives remembered his easy smile and the ordinary plans cut short by the violence.

If anyone saw a silver two‑door sedan around West Ogden Avenue that night or has information about the chase, please come forward.
