A 31-year-old Chicago man is being held pending trial in the Cook County Jail, charged with first-degree murder stemming from a July shooting in Ford Heights that killed two people and injured others.
Detrion Anderson was arrested Jan. 1, after a warrant was issued in November. He is due to appear again in court Jan. 21.
The shooting took place about 3:15 a.m. July 5 in the 1400 block of Regent Lane. Michael Agee, 30, of Lynwood, and Raqwan Dixon, 30, of Hammond, were found with gunshot wounds and taken to Franciscan St. Margaret Health in Dyer, Indiana, where they were later pronounced dead, according to the Cook County sheriff’s office.
Autopsies revealed Dixon died of a single gunshot wound and Agee of multiple gunshot wounds, prosecutors said.
A third gunshot victim, 31, declined treatment at the scene and got his own ride to a hospital, police said.
After the shooting, prosecutors said a car driven from the scene was tracked using Flock Cameras as it left Ford Heights via Route 30 and Interstate 394, and recorded by other cameras nine times as it journeyed to Chicago.
Registration data from the vehicle as well as tracking data from a phone led police to Anderson, prosecutors said.
