Rolando Gamino of East Chicago, Indiana, was shot to death during an argument in a Little Village apartment in October, and his death has now been ruled a homicide.
Gamino, 30, was in an argument with another man in the 3100 block of South Central Park about 4:20 a.m. Oct. 9 when the suspect pulled out a handgun and opened fire, according to Chicago Police and the Cook County medical examiner’s office said.
Gamino, of the 5000 block of Baring Avenue in East Chicago, was shot in the chest and was taken to Mount Sinai Hospital, authorities said. He died at the hospital at 9:34 a.m.
An autopsy at the time did not rule on cause and manner of death, with results pending further investigation, but the medical examiner’s office has since ruled he died of a gunshot wound to the chest and his death was ruled a homicide.
