Walter Neely was fatally shot Aug. 15 in the Bronzeville neighborhood. Reader “holmesmmd” posted this about the slaying:
RIP Walter. He sounded like a good man. I live right in front of where he was shot and I can confirm that he was never transported to a hospital. Why they let a man lay dead in the street for 3 plus hours is beyond me?! Mercy hospital is 5 blocks up the street?! Sounds like another senseless tragedy committed in front of a sea of witnesses and cameras. No suspects?! WTF? Is it that easy to blow someone away in this city without ever getting caught?! The cops can sure write parking tickets and moving violation tickets though, huh? What a joke:(
