The video was clear and detailed, showing the gunman covered in what appears to be a COVID-type mask. The gunman is then seen running out of the store, dropping his cell phone, and darting into traffic on the street afterward. He also left the bike behind. Khamo was taken to AMITA Health Saint Francis Hospital in Evanston in critical condition and was later pronounced dead.
There was also a photograph of the very bicycle on which Dunnavant had pulled up to Khamo's store, as well as a gun of the same size and shape he used in the homicide, and a dark-colored jacket he was wearing at the time of the murder, Nugarus alleged. CBS 2's Marissa Perlman spoke Friday with Khamo's son. He said in the wake of the arrest, he is breathing bit of a sigh of relief.
