The murder of Zheng Shaoxiong occurred in Chicago, United States on November 9, 2021, when Dennis Zheng Shaoxiong, a 24-year-old graduate at the University of Chicago,[1] was fatally shot by Alton Spann, a 19-year-old Chicago resident, on the sidewalk in the 900 block of East 54th Street in Hyde Park.[2] Court documents say that when Spann saw Zheng, who was holding a large laptop, he and two others were driving a stolen car, and Spann used a gun to rob Zheng. The suspect shot the victim one time in the chest when the victim was struggling with the suspect and trying to escape. Zheng was pronounced dead after being taken to the University of Chicago Medical Center.[3] On November 12, Spann was charged with first-degree murder, unlawful use of a weapon, and armed robbery.[4]
Zheng was the second international student from Mainland China to be killed in Chicago in 2021.[note 1][6]
