A $10,000 reward was being offered for information leading to an arrest in the deadly shooting of a much loved Office of Emergency Management and Communications employee Friday morning in her West Ridge apartment.
Da’J Flowers, 36, was found inside her apartment in the 6900 block of North Bell Avenue around 9:15 a.m. with a gunshot wound to her abdomen, Chicago police and the OEMC said.
Flowers died of multiple gunshot wounds and her death was ruled a homicide, according to the Cook County medical examiner’s office, which performed an autopsy Saturday.
The OEMC said Flowers was a senior administrative assistant assigned to their investigations division who joined at the beginning of the year. Flowers previously worked for the Chicago Department of Public Health.
“Da’J’s passing is a terrible loss to her family and to us here at OEMC and the City of Chicago,” OEMC said in a statement.
The Cook County Crime Stoppers offer a reward up to $10,000 for any information leading to an arrest. No one was in custody as of Monday morning.
“Another woman has been killed in our city, and it is unacceptable,” said Paul Rutherford, Executive Director of Cook County Crime Stoppers. “This was a senseless act of violence, and someone out there knows who is responsible. We urge anyone with information, no matter how small it may seem, to come forward. Your tip could be the one that brings accountability and justice to the victim’s family.”
Anyone with information is encouraged to call 1-800-535-7867 or submit tips at www.CPDTIP.com.
