Solomon Little, an 18-year-old African American man from North Chicago, was killed on September 6, 2020, at about 7:15 p.m. on the 2000 block of Greenfield Avenue. Investigators say a vehicle pulled up, a person exited, and opened fire at Little in the roadway; he was pronounced dead at the scene by the Lake County coroner’s office.

A 77-year-old woman who was gardening nearby was struck in the leg by a stray bullet and hospitalized; she is expected to survive. The shooter then returned to the vehicle and fled.

The Lake County Major Crimes Taskforce continues to investigate and has not publicly identified any arrests or suspects. Can anyone who was in that area on the evening of September 6, 2020, or who has information about the shooting, contact the taskforce?
