The victim, who was shot in the head and body, was a security guard at the store. He was identified this afternoon as Troy Cameron, of the 500 block of North Avers Avenue, according to the Cook County medical examiner's office.
Police said the shooter, believed to be a former store employee, fled on foot. Nobody is in custody. The victim's identity was not being released publicly, pending notification of next of kin, but the Cook County medical examiner's office said the man was 22 and apparently died of multiple gunshot wounds.
Dante Simmons, who lived in the 1600 block of Juneway Terrace in Rogers Park, was considered a suspect in the slaying, according to the Evanston Police Department, which said that Simmons was found dead of an apparently self-inflicted gunshot in an Evanston alley this morning. Police said Simmons was also considered a suspect in another killing Friday in Rogers Park.
Police found the body on the ground outside the Walgreens next to a garbage can.
