Aurora man identified as drive-by shooting victim

Montgomery police on Thursday identified the victim of a drive-by shooting last week as 20-year-old Aurora man Terelle A. Suggs.

Police said Suggs was driving with three others north on Orchard Road near Jericho Road the evening of Jan. 13 when a vehicle pulled alongside them and someone fired several rounds, striking Suggs in the head.

Suggs was taken to Presence Mercy Medical Center and then airlifted to Loyola Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead at 8:30 a.m. Saturday. Police said his name was withheld until they could identify his next of kin and immediate family.

Montgomery police are continuing to investigate and say they are trying to find witnesses.

Anyone with information is encouraged to call Montgomery police at (630) 897-8707, ext. 9058, or Aurora Area Crime Stoppers at (630) 892-1000. Callers to Crime Stoppers may remain anonymous.
