His death left those who knew him shocked.
“He was just walking up the street after meeting somebody down the block,” explained friend Tony Petrehn. “His wife and kids were at the house and he was 50 yards from being home. He was almost home.”
Around 10 p.m.: Two people were shot in the 400 block of Lawndale. Police said an adult and a juvenile were outside a residence when unknown suspects fired shots at them. Both victims were taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. No suspects are in custody.
