Gage Park

The man accused of killing two people and injuring a third in attacks carried out in a Gage Park apartment and a neighboring bar on Sunday was unable to appear in court for a detention hearing today, the Cook County State’s Attorney’s Office said.

Two people are dead and a bar patron is badly injured after an assailant launched attacks inside a Gage Park apartment and then moved next door to assault another victim inside a tavern, according to Chicago police and a law enforcement source. A suspect is in custody.

Christopher Paredes caught a nice break after Chicago cops found a loaded firearm in his car during a traffic stop last summer. Judge Charles Burns agreed to give him “first-time weapon offender probation” with 120 hours of community service. Unfortunately, prosecutors now say Paredes has shot a man to death.

For more than two hours, a gunshot victim sat dead or dying inside an SUV on a Gage Park street Tuesday evening. His body was only discovered after a resident called 911 to complain because the vehicle had been running, double-parked, and occupied for so long.

Prosecutors have charged an 18-year-old man with carjacking one victim and robbing another in a separate incident the same day. Cameron White, 18, is accused of working with an accomplice who displayed a handgun during both crimes, but White is the only person who has been charged so far.

The reward has been doubled for information that helps investigators solve and prosecute the mass shooting that left three men dead and five others injured at a house party in Gage Park earlier this month. Officials have said all of the victims were migrants.

Crime Stoppers is offering a reward for information that leads to the arrest or indictment of the people responsible for a mass shooting that left three people dead and five injured at a house party in Gage Park earlier this month.

A judge has sentenced a man to 22 years in prison for killing a key witness in a murder case pending against his friend. George Reyes, 22, pleaded guilty to murder in exchange for the sentence from Judge James Obbish on Wednesday, according to court records.
