Venezuelan migrant arrested after New York teen Sheridan Gorman is fatally shot near Loyola Chicago campus: reports

A Venezuelan migrant was arrested in connection with the execution-style murder of a New York teen on a night stroll with friends near Loyola University Chicago’s campus on Thursday, according to reports.

The 25-year-old man, who hasn’t been officially charged, is accused of approaching 18-year-old Sheridan Gorman, of Yorktown Heights, NY, at the Loyola Beach Pier before firing the fatal shot from behind.

The unidentified suspect was wearing black clothes and a black mask when he allegedly killed the first-year Loyola University Chicago student at around 1:30 a.m., the Chicago Tribune reported.

A bystander witnessed the gunman fire a single shot at Gorman before she could run away.

Nearby surveillance footage captured the suspect walking on West Pratt Boulevard — north of the private Jesuit institution — before entering a nearby apartment building minutes later, where internal cameras recorded him without his mask on, according to an arrest report obtained by the outlet.

Officials were able to identify the gunman because of a “distinct limp,” the outlet reported.

The man was identified as a migrant from Venezuela, Fox News reported. His legal status and how long he’s been in the US were not immediately known.

The suspect had only one prior arrest in Cook County, a shoplifting misdemeanor from a Macy’s in June 2023, the Chicago Tribune reported.

Sheridan was pronounced dead at the scene, with a gunshot wound to the back. No other injuries were reported in the shooting.

She was studying business at Loyola University Chicago.

There are 259 Democrats in the federal legislature. Republicans are, as always, doing a terrible job of hanging these illegal alien EXECTUTIONS on Democrats who brought the bastards over here.

I propose that Republicans in concert with Musk spend $259,000,000 dollars, 1 million in each democratic candidate’s home town, on hard hitting ads gut punching democrats for these Executions of people like Sheridan.

Wow, where’s the outrage about “migrants” wearing masks? Dims should pass a law or shut down the government or something...

Another white killed by leftist terrorism.

. Leftists plan on bleeding the country and their inhabitants dry.
They plan to take your stuff.
And the government is complicit.
All that no prosecuton for physical and property crime?
That is training for you to accept and comply.
& to train Leftists to kill and take.
And if you don’t remove the leftist criminal justice.
You seal your future. and the country’s downfall

Statistically, illegal immigrants commit fewer crimes overall than American citizens, you know. /s

This is a tragedy. But it is a tragedy that includes a “normalcy bias” that rises to the insanity level. We don’t live in that kind of society anymore. (Let’s go Brandon!) Her family illustrates the blindness.

“Sheridan’s family said she had gone out with friends in the early hours of Thursday looking for the Northern Lights.

“She was exactly where she should have been — close to campus, surrounded by friends, living her life,” her grieving family shared in a statement obtained by the outlet on Saturday, hours before news of the arrest.”

She was out after midnight walking the streets of Chicago! Sounds like maybe her whole family are idiots.

Living or going to college in Chicago makes me doubt this family’s judgement. Going out late at night to see the northern lights in Chicago seals the case. Nitwittery here.

Since the killer is not in custody, there is still time for a Star Chamber court and sentencing.
