A south suburban man was shot dead inside a Harvey home early morning following a domestic involving him, his girlfriend and a male relative, authorities said.
Killed was Antwon Wormely, 28, of Calumet City, according to the Cook County medical examiner's office. Wormely died from a gunshot wound to the chest in a homicide, according to an autopsy performed today.
Wormely was shot by a man inside the home in the 300 block of East 147th Place at about 3:45 a.m. as the quarrel intensified between the victim and his girlfriend intensified, according to Harvey police spokeswoman Sandra Alvarado.
The gunman was a male "family member," according to Alvarado, who wouldn't say whether it was a relative of Wormely's or his girlfriend, who lives at the home.
The shooting came after an evening that saw Wormely quarreling with his girlfriend for much of the night, Alvarado said.
The two began arguing at a bar in nearby Markham and continued as they returned to her home.
After the shooting, Wormely was taken Ingalls Memorial Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
Police were working with prosecutors in seeking felony charges against the suspected gunman, Alvarado said.
