Jordan Grevious, a 23-year-old African American male, was tragically shot and killed on September 14, 2019, in Chicago, IL. The incident occurred while he was dropping off two friends after a night out. As he sat in the driver's seat of a parked vehicle, a car pulled alongside him, and the occupants began shooting. Jordan was struck multiple times and succumbed to his injuries at the scene.
The Cook County Medical Examiner's Office conducted an autopsy and determined that Jordan died
from multiple gunshot wounds. His death was officially ruled a homicide. Despite the efforts of law enforcement, the case remains unsolved. Detectives believe that someone in the community may have information that could lead to the identification and apprehension of the perpetrators, but no arrests have been made.
Jordan's mother, Monique Greene, has been vocal about the need for community members to come forward with any information they might have. She has expressed her heartbreak and devastation over the loss of her only child, describing him as a young man full of life, with a big heart and a strong love for his family. Jordan had attended college and was working in a suburban plant at the time of his death. He had no history of legal troubles and was considered to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.
The area where Jordan was killed, the 8300 block of South Peoria Street, has been plagued by violence, with multiple shootings and an armed robbery occurring in the past year. Monique Greene has organized community events, such as a balloon release, to honor her son's memory and to raise awareness about the ongoing issue of gun violence in Chicago. She continues to urge people to speak out and help bring justice for Jordan and other victims of violence.
