An 18-year-old man was killed in a shooting Friday in south suburban Harvey.

Anthony Anaya was found shot multiple times about 4:30 a.m. by officers responding to a call of shots fired in the 16700 block of South Halsted in Harvey, according to Harvey police spokesman Sean Howard and the Cook County medical examiner’s office.

Anaya, 18, was sitting inside a vehicle when two men fired shots at him from another vehicle that pulled alongside his, authorities said.

He was taken to Ingalls Memorial Hospital in Harvey, where he died of his wounds at 5:58 p.m., authorities said. He lived in Chicago’s East Side neighborhood on the Far South Side.

Police believe the shooting stemmed from an altercation that began in Chicago.

The action when an arrest was made in the killing of Officer Luis Huesca refects what’s done nationwide. “It’s a way of showing that even though the officer is not with us, he is having a part in the arrest of the person who killed them,” former police Supt. Phil Cline says.

A soldier participates in the Norwegian Foot March at Fort Ord National Monument, in Monterey County, California, in a 2022 file photo. Mounting evidence shows that to kill pervasive poison oak and other weeds at Fort Ord — a former Army base, which closed in 1994 — the military sprayed and experimented with the powerful herbicide combination Agent Orange as far back as the 1950s.
