Keon Lee was 21 when he was shot in the head on July 2, 2017, on the first block of 138th Street in Riverdale, Illinois. The Cook County medical examiner’s office pronounced him dead at 4:15 a.m. that same day; reports note he succumbed to his injuries more than a year after the incident.

Police described the case as a violent crime but reported no immediate arrests or identified suspects. Investigators left the file open and sought information from the public. In the years since the shooting there were no reported arrests, suspects, or litigation tied directly to his murder.

Keon’s death underscores the toll of gun violence on families and communities and the difficulty of obtaining justice when leads run cold. If anyone has information about the shooting or Keon’s movements on July 2, 2017, please come forward.
