CHICAGO – A quiet Wednesday morning in Roseland was shattered by gun violence when 33-year-old Kyree, known to many as Reezy Møney, was found fatally shot on the 10100 block of South Prairie Avenue. The incident marks another tragic episode in Chicago’s ongoing struggle with gun violence as police scramble for leads.
The grim discovery came at approximately 5:10 a.m. when Chicago Police Department officers responded to reports of an unresponsive person. Upon arrival, first responders found Kyree lying on the pavement with multiple gunshot wounds. Despite immediate medical attention, emergency personnel pronounced him dead at the scene, leaving behind more questions than answers in the tight-knit Far South Side community.
Area 2 detectives have launched a full-scale homicide investigation, combing the area for surveillance footage and potential witnesses. “We’re following every lead and asking anyone with information to come forward,” said a CPD spokesperson during a brief morning press conference. The lack of suspect information has left both investigators and community members frustrated as they search for justice.
Kyree’s death has sent shockwaves through Roseland, where neighbors describe the victim as a well-known local figure. “He was always smiling, always looking out for people around here,” said one distraught resident who asked to remain anonymous. The shooting occurred in a typically quiet residential area, leaving many questioning how such violence could erupt in their neighborhood.
Community activists are calling for increased police presence and community intervention programs following the latest homicide. “We’re tired of burying our young people,” said Roseland community leader Pastor Michael Henderson. “This has to stop.” The incident comes as Chicago continues grappling with gun violence that has claimed dozens of lives already this year.
As detectives work around the clock, authorities urge anyone with information to contact Chicago Police at (312) 746-6000 or submit anonymous tips to Crime Stoppers at (800) 535-STOP. With no suspects in custody and few concrete leads, Kyree’s loved ones and the Roseland community wait anxiously for answers in this heartbreaking case.
