During last night’s Kankakee City Council meeting, Aldermen were given an update on the investigation into the New Year’s Day shooting in the City that left two dead. City Police Chief Chris Kidwell
Kidwell said so far there have been several anonymous tips called in to the City Police Department about the shooting, but no eye-witness accounts that could lead to an arrest. Mayor Chris Curtis added while authorities believe they know what happened, they need more evidence to be able to make any arrests
Just after four New Year’s morning, City Police were called to the shooting in the 18-hundred block of Pierson Parkway. When they got there, they found four people had been shot and they were taken to the hospital for treatment. Three other showed up at the hospital on their own. Two of the victims, 22-year-old Quaysean Isom of Kankakee and 20-year-old TreVontae Ellis of Pembroke Township later died of their wounds.
