Former Oakbrook Center defendant shot dead outside his Chicago restaurant on March 15, 2024
County Crime Watch • Chicago, Cook County, Illinois

A man previously charged in a 2021 Oakbrook Center shooting was fatally shot on March 15, 2024, in front of his restaurant on 95th Street in Chicago, the report documents. He had been among two people charged after a 2021 shootout at Oakbrook Center that wounded several bystanders, the DuPage County State's Attorney’s Office said in that earlier case.

DuPage prosecutors charged both men in the 2021 mall incident; one later pleaded guilty and was sentenced in 2024. The recently reported March 15, 2024, death occurred in Chicago’s 95th Street corridor; the account does not provide an arrest or charging update tied to that homicide.

Law enforcement and prosecutors are identified in prior filings about the 2021 Oakbrook Center case, but the report does not supply Chicago police or Cook County prosecutor statements about the March 15, 2024, shooting. No motives, suspect identities, or court developments related to the 2024 death are documented in the available account.

All individuals accused of a crime are presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court.
