Police release video of 2 suspects wanted in shooting death of 14-year-old Kevin Tinker

Chicago police

Chicago police have released video of two suspects wanted in the fatal shooting of a 14-year-old boy down the street from his home in Roseland.

Kevin Tinker was shot to death while standing on a sidewalk Sunday evening in the 200 block of West 110th Place, Chicago police said.

The eighth-grader was outside a home that had been targeted earlier in the day, according to police Chief of Detectives Brendan Deenihan, who would not say if the boy himself was a target.

The boy’s mother, Delisa Tucker, 31, was shot dead on the same block two days later. Friends said she was on her way to light a candle at her son’s memorial.

Police are searching for two males wanted in the fatal shooting of a 14-year-old boy.

Police did not say whether the two suspects in the video are also suspects in her murder. The video shows two males walking into a gas station in black masks and black hoodies, then leave in a silver Nissan.

Anyone with information can call Area Two detectives at 312-747-8271.
