It is with deep sorrow that we acknowledge the tragic passing of 20-year-old Treyhon McCurdy, who lost his life in a shooting incident in Chicago’s West Pullman neighborhood. His sudden and violent death has left his family, friends, and community devastated, as they mourn a young life taken far too soon.
According to police and family accounts, Treyhon was driving in the area near 122nd Street and Harvard Avenue on Sunday night when gunfire erupted. During the incident, he was on the phone with his mother, sharing his final moments with her as the tragedy unfolded. His vehicle subsequently crashed into a parked car, where he and another individual were later found with gunshot wounds. Both were transported to a nearby hospital, where they were pronounced deceased.
The pain of his loss is especially felt by his mother, Alicia Warford, who was speaking with him during the shooting. In her heartbreak, she recalled hearing her son cry out for help as danger surrounded him, followed by his final words of love to her before the call went silent. Those final moments have become an unimaginable source of grief for the family.
Treyhon had recently celebrated his 20th birthday and was remembered by loved ones as a young man with promise, warmth, and deep affection for his family. His passing has left a profound void in the lives of those who knew and cared for him.
As the investigation continues and no arrests have been made, family and community members are calling for justice and answers. Authorities are working diligently to determine the circumstances surrounding the incident.
We extend our heartfelt condolences to the McCurdy family during this incredibly painful time. May they find strength in one another, support in their community, and comfort in the cherished memories of Treyhon’s life and love.
