Charles Golden, 20, was killed on the morning of July 8, 2020, in Gary, Indiana. The shooting happened near 47th Avenue and Adams Street while Golden was inside a vehicle with two known associates. He suffered multiple gunshot wounds and was taken to Northlake Methodist Hospital, where he was pronounced dead at 11:32 a.m.

After the shooting the suspect allegedly fled, carjacked a vehicle in Gary and led officers on a high-speed pursuit from northwest Indiana into Chicago. The chase ended on the South Side of Chicago, where police arrested an individual in connection with the homicide and the subsequent flight. Authorities did not immediately release the suspect’s identity or the formal charges in the first reports.

The cross-border chase linked the Gary crime scene to the arrest in Illinois. If anyone witnessed the shooting, the carjacking, or the pursuit, or has information about the events that morning, please come forward.
