Days earlier, less than two miles away, a man was shot to death while standing in an alley.
Ceasar Calvin Shears Jr., 20, was standing in an alley about 6 p.m. Tuesday in the 8400 block of South Colfax Avenue when he was shot in the head, police and the Cook County medical examiner’s office said. He was taken to the University of Chicago Medical Center initially in critical condition, but eventually died due to his injuries.
