May 2024 · 3 minute read

On the evening of November 13th, Chicago rapper Lil Reese (real name Tavares Taylor) was identified as one of three individuals involved in a shooting in Chicago’s Loop over a car dispute. 

According to police reports, the group had been found in a parking garage when shots were fired. 

The 20-year-old man was hospitalized with two gunshot wounds to the knee, while the 27-year-old man sustained multiple bullet wounds and was transferred to Northwestern Memorial Hospital with critical injuries. 

Lil Reese was reportedly grazed by a bullet in his eye and taken to Northwestern Memorial Hospital for treatment, where he is reportedly in fair condition. At this time, no individual has been apprehended for their involvement in the shooting.

This case of attempted detainment via a stolen car for its tracking device illuminated the dangers of pursuing such criminal activities. 

The confrontation ensued between those inside the Durango and someone else outside, who opened fire when the man’s father frustratedly attempted to detain them. 

Even with the GPS system in place, unfortunately, the shooting still occurred in the Grand Plaza Parking Garage on West Grand Avenue. The incident demonstrates situations similar to this one require appropriate caution as they can quickly spiral into chaos and violence.

The scene that confronted police officers was permeated with evidence of gun violence: numerous shell casings were strewn on the ground, and two handguns were found in the Durango parked nearby. 

After interviewing Taylor, who identified himself as present at the time of the shooting, it became apparent that he rented the garage out to others for a drug deal gone wrong. 

Unfortunately, those who were also shot during this deadly episode gave little information to police officers—a situation which led to further complicating attempts to unearth an accurate narrative of what truly happened that fateful evening.

The graphic video circulating on social media has sparked a lot of uproar in the public. 

The vertical video appears to show part of the aftermath of a shooting, with a woman and a man off-camera yelling at someone wearing a hoodie and navy pants stained with blood. 

In the background, another man resembles the victim, Taylor, against a wall behind the barrier. 

He is seen going in and out of consciousness, heavily breathing as an officer tries to talk to him and calls for an ambulance. 

This incident has raised many questions about accountability and justice as people following the case closely want answers.

Taylor is a rapper hailing from Englewood, Illinois, who rose to notoriety for his collaborations with Chief Keef and Lil Durk. 

His fame was further cemented when he was featured on the Billboard Hot 100-hit single “I Don’t Like” by Chief Keef in 2012. 

However, in November 2019, Taylor tragically found himself in critical condition after being shot multiple times at a busy intersection in Country Club Hills by someone wielding an AK-47 assault rifle. The shooting sent shockwaves through the hip-hop community and left many concerned about the safety of their favorite artists.

Chicago Police confirmed that 20-year-old Taylor Williams was taken to Advocate South Suburban Hospital in Hazel Crest after he was shot on Saturday. 

Witnesses reported that someone had driven him there for treatment, and upon further assessment, he was transferred to Advocate Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn to receive additional care. 

Fortunately, Mr. Williams was released a few days later with no life-threatening injuries. To ensure the safety of their customers, the Chicago Transit Authority requested that trains not stop at the station until the investigation was completed. 

Thankfully, no CTA customers or staff were involved in this incident.
