An arrest has been made in connection with the fatal shooting of 18-year-old Sheridan Gorman, a freshman at Loyola University Chicago.
Gorman was shot in the head in the early hours of March 19 while walking with friends near Tobey Prinz Beach, close to Loyola’s Lake Shore campus in Chicago.
A 25-year-old Rogers Park man, identified by police through a surveillance video showing a distinct limp, is the suspect.
The suspect opened fire at the group before fleeing the scene, striking Gorman fatally as she tried to run away.
The suspect has previous charges, including a misdemeanor for shoplifting from the State Street Macy's in June 2023.
Gorman was a member of the Christian campus club Cru and a business student at Loyola, described by peers as active and enthusiastic about campus life.
