- The man suffered multiple gunshot wounds and was pronounced dead, with police estimating his age at 18 to 25 and not yet releasing an identity.
- Investigators recovered four rifle shell casings at the scene.
- Witnesses reported a red SUV speeding out of the alley after the gunfire.
- Chicago police reported no arrests, and CWB Chicago notes this is the neighborhood’s second shooting of 2025, a slower pace than in 2021–2024, with an editor’s correction rescinding an earlier claim about the city’s first 2025 shooting.
