Drake</a> and <a href="http://homicides.suntimes.com/victims/briona-o-white/">Briona O. White</a> were fatally shot last week in the Roseland neighborhood on the South Side.</p> <p>About 6:50 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 6, officers responding to a call of a person shot in the 500 block of West 109th found the two people outside with gunshot wounds, police said.</p> <p>Drake, 20, was shot in the head and pronounced dead at the scene, police and the Cook County medical examiner’s office said. He lived a few blocks away in the 10900 block of South Lowe.</p> <p>White, 22, was taken to Advocate Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn, where she was later pronounced dead, authorities said. She lived in the 10100 block of South Carpenter.</p> <p>Two men, including the one in the sketch, were seen running westbound on 109th Street just after the incident, police said. They got into a yellow compact vehicle parked at 10900 S. Parnell and drove off at a high rate of speed.<br /> <span id="more-12768"></span></p> <p>Both men are described as black, 20-22 years old, 5-foot-10 to 5-foot-11 with thin, athletic builds; and medium brown complexions. Both were wearing dark t-shirts and denim pants.</p> <p>Police are telling people not to approach the suspects, but to call 911 to report their location, vehicle description and clothing.</p> <p>As of Friday afternoon, no one has been charged with the slayings, which police said may have been gang-related, as Drake was a documented gang member.</p> <p>—Chicago Sun-Times Wire</p> Jeff MayesFri, 14 Aug 2015 15:35:11 -0500http://homicides.suntimes.com/2015/08/14/police-release-sketch-of-man-seen-running-from-block-where-william-drake-and-briona-white-were-killed/William L.
