Fox News analyst Gianno Caldwell took to social media to share news that his 18-year-old brother Christian Beamons had been shot dead in Morgan Park on the South Side early Friday.
“Yesterday was legitimately the worst day of my existence,” Caldwell wrote on his social media platforms Saturday. “After all the things my family has been through never could I have imagined my baby brother’s life would be stolen from him.”
According to police, Beamons and another man and woman were outside in a group when a man shot at them and then got into a black sedan to flee the scene, heading east.
Police were called to the 11400 block of South Vincennes Avenue on Friday shortly after 2 a.m. where they found Beamons had suffered a gunshot wound to the torso, according to an online statement. Paramedics rushed him to Advocate Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn, where he was pronounced dead at 2:46 a.m.
The cause of death was multiple gunshot wounds, according to the Cook County medical examiner’s office, and the manner of death was determined to be a homicide.
The other victims, a 25-year-old woman and a 31-year-old man, suffered gunshot wounds to the leg and torso, respectively. Both were also taken to Christ Medical Center. The woman was listed in fair condition while the man was in critical condition.
No arrests have been made and police are investigating.
