South Holland, Pfleger Offer Reward in Teen Shooting

The Village of South Holland and Father Michael Pfleger are offering a $10,000 reward for credible information leading to the arrest of those responsible for the fatal shooting of 16-year-old Davell Holden, a Thornwood High School basketball player, who was killed by multiple gunshot wounds near 160th and Drexel on August 2. Holden, who was about to begin his junior year, is mourned by his family and community, with his mother expressing gratitude for the support and the positive impact he had on others. A memorial and balloon release were held at Thornwood High School to honor his memory. Authorities urge anyone with information to contact the South Holland Police Department, assuring anonymity and confidentiality for tipsters. The reward will only be paid after an arrest is made based on credible information that significantly aids the investigation. Officials emphasize their commitment to achieving justice for Holden and his family.
