The death of Marvin Carr, who went by the name Capo, was
confirmed by the group's manager, Renaldo Hess, according to the
newspaper. Hess could not be reached for comment.
Chicago police confirmed on Sunday that a 22-year-old gang
member who was shot in the hip and the back on the city's south
side on Saturday afternoon had died, but could not provide his
name. The Cook County Medical Examiner's office had not yet
confirmed the death as of Sunday afternoon.
Soon after the shooting, a vehicle believed to be carrying the
possible offenders in the shooting struck 13-month-old Dillon
Harris, who later died, according to police and the Cook County
Medical Examiner's office. Harris had been in a stroller waiting
for a bus with his mother and older sisters, the Sun-Times said.
Social media connected with rap music have many mentions of
Capo's death, including a message from rapper Robert Williams,
better known as Meek Mill, who tweeted "RIP youngbull."
Chicago police said they are questioning two "persons of
interest" in the shooting.
