Reward Upped To $25K For Suspect In 7-Year-Old's Shooting Death

CHICAGO — The FBI has upped the reward money for information leading to the arrest and conviction of a man believed to have shot an AK-47 into a car at a fast food drive-thru, killing a 7-year-old Oak Park girl.

A federal arrest warrant was issued for 22-year-old Devontay Anderson on April 29, a suspect in the murder of Jaslyn Adams, who on April 18 was sitting in a car with her father as they waited in line at the McDonlad’s drive-thru, 3200 W. Roosevelt Road, Chicago. Police believe the young girl’s father was the actual target, who suffered a gunshot wound in the back.

The reward has been increased from $10,000 to $25,000. Anderson is known to have connections in Illinois, Indiana and Florida, federal agents said. In addition to first-degree and attempted first-degree murder charges, Anderson is charged with unlawful flight to avoid prosecution. A GPS tracker last traced Anderson in the Miami, Fla., area, according to the feds.

Anderson is black, and has brown eyes and black hair. He stands around 5-feet-6-inches, and weighs around 160 pounds. Anderson has a small tattoo of capital letters written in script over his right eyebrow. He sometimes uses the birthdate of May 24, 1999. He’s been known to go by the names of “Vontay” and “Moneybag.”

Two other men said to be involved in the shooting of the young girl and her father have been arrested and are being held without bail on murder charges in Cook County Jail. Demond Goudy, 21, was out on bond for four separate criminal cases at the time of the drive-thru shooting when he was arrested on April 27.

Marion Lewis, 18, led Chicago police on a wild chase down the Eisenhower Expressway on April 22, when he drove his car into a ditch. He was shot by police when he allegedly tried to carjack another vehicle.

Anyone with information on Devontay Anderson’s whereabouts is asked to contact their local FBI office or American Consulate, or call the Chicago FBI Office at 312-421-6700.
