Chicago police and the Cook County medical examiner’s office disclosed that Whitehead sustained multiple gunshot wounds to the body and was found in the 3300 block of West Franklin Boulevard around 11:10 p.m. According to reports, witnesses at the scene observed the shooting unfold, and here is some video footage documenting the incident that took place.
