A story for every victim

Randy Jeanlouis, 20

Randy Jeanlouis, 20, a black young man, suffered a single gunshot wound at 1432 W. 105th St. in the Westmont area, and died at 12:35 a.m. Wednesday, June 20.

He was walking down the street with a juvenile companion when he was approached by several black men or youths on foot. They killed him. Investigators suspect gang concerns are involved in this killing, but exactly what that means is unclear. Jeanlouis may have been targeted for his gang membership. But he might also have been killed simply for being a young black man in a place where even the perception of strangeness or rivalry can get one murdered, investigators said.
