Chicago Murder Case Closes After 5 Years | Chicago News
Description
After nearly five years, justice is finally moving forward in a shocking Chicago River North murder case. On September 18, 2021, a 33-year-old man was fatally shot—and now, 31-year-old Rashawn Ward has been arrested and charged with first-degree murder, along with weapons offenses for allegedly possessing a gun despite prior felony convictions. The arrest, made Tuesday by Chicago police and the U.S. Marshals Fugitive Task Force, marks a major breakthrough after years of investigation. Ward is set to appear in court Thursday as prosecutors build their case—a chilling reminder that even long-dormant crimes can still be solved, and the law continues to hold perpetrators accountable.
