Quintin Hogan

Quintin Hogan, a 20-year-old Hispanic/Latino male, was a resident of Chicago’s South Paulina Street. His life was cut short in a violent daytime shooting in the spring of 2010.

On the morning of Thursday, March 25, 2010, Hogan was driving in the city’s Brighton Park neighborhood on the Southwest Side. At approximately 10:05 a.m., as he drove along the 3800 block of South Sacramento Avenue, a van pulled up beside his vehicle. An occupant inside the van opened fire, striking Hogan in the head.

First responders rushed Hogan to Mount Sinai Hospital for emergency treatment. Despite the efforts to save him, he was pronounced dead at 7:02 p.m. that evening, according to the Cook County medical examiner’s office.

In the immediate aftermath, Chicago police began an investigation into the shooting. Authorities stated a belief that the attack was gang-related. At the time, they did not have descriptions of the assailants and had not made any arrests in connection with the homicide. As of March 2010, the case remained unsolved.
