Jamarh Carter died Tuesday morning, about eight hours after he was shot the previous night in the Gresham neighborhood, authorities said.
Carter, 22, was sitting in a vehicle with another person at 8:55 p.m. Monday in the 8000 block of South May when a gunman got into the back seat and shot him in the back of the head, according to Chicago Police and the Cook County medical examiner’s office.
The shooter then tried to drive away in the vehicle, but the other person inside pulled him out and drove Carter to Little Company of Mary Hospital in Evergreen Park, police said.
However, the witness was being uncooperative with investigators, police said.
Carter, who lived in the 13000 block of South King Drive, was transferred to Stroger Hospital, where he was pronounced dead at 5:17 a.m. Tuesday, according to the medical examiner’s office.
