A person was shot and killed Thursday outside an apartment building in south suburban Crestwood, according to police.

Officers were called at 3:08 p.m. to the 5700 block of 128th Street for reports of shots fired, Crestwood police said. Investigators found a male in the rear parking lot with a gunshot wound to the head.

He was taken to Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn, where he was later pronounced dead, police said. The Cook County medical examiner’s office hasn’t released details about his death.

Police identified four vehicles of interest in connection to the shooting: A white Mercedes SUV, a dark-colored Dodge Durango with tinted windows, a silver Infiniti and a Nissan Altima. Investigators are asking residents in the area of 128th Street, 129th Street, Carriage Lane, Park Place and Central Avenue to check surveillance video for the vehicles.

Anyone with information is asked to call Crestwood police at 708-926-7241 to 708-926-7242.
