Michael M. Gipson was shot to death after an argument early Sunday on the block where he lived in the Chatham neighborhood on the South Side, police said.
At 3:20 a.m., the 40-year-old was arguing with someone he knew in the 7800 block of South Michigan, according to Chicago Police and the Cook County medical examiner’s office.
That person then pulled out a gun and opened fire.
Gipson, who lived in the same block, was shot in the abdomen, and was taken to Stroger Hospital, where he was pronounced dead at 4:11 a.m., authorities said.
The family has set up a GoFundMe page to help offset funeral costs for Gipson, who was known to friends as “Zo.”
