Antonio Reyes, a 21-year-old man, was charged with six murders in Chicago’s southwest side in 2020, when he was only 17 years old. He pleaded not guilty to charges of first-degree murder and attempted murder on Tuesday, with all cases stemming from the same year. Reyes was already in custody for a sixth murder case from 2020. Cook County State’s Attorney Eileen O’Neill Burke accused Reyes of committing a series of shootings over nine months when he was 17, calling it sad and shocking. Reyes was first arrested in connection with the murder of Luis Davalos in December 2020. While in jail awaiting trial for that case, he allegedly attacked a fellow inmate. The new charges include the murders of five others in March, April, May, and November 2020, as well as three attempted murder charges. One incident involved a man who was killed in front of his children in November 2020. Reyes is being held in custody without bail, and his attorney information was not available. The case remains ongoing, with prosecutors working to bring justice for the victims and their families. Doha Madani, a senior breaking news reporter for NBC News, reported on the developments in the case.
