NextImg:Boyfriend charged with murder after woman fatally shot inside Evergreen Park Mariano’s, police say

A man who was tracked down on Chicago’s North Side less than an hour after police say he shot and killed his girlfriend at a Mariano’s in Evergreen Park where she worked has been charged with her murder.

Armoni Henry, of the 8200 block of Fairfield Avenue in Chicago, was charged with murder, Evergreen Park police said.

Henry was scheduled to appear later Friday at the Bridgeview Courthouse for a bond hearing.

A license plate reader picked up Henry’s red Ford Focus in the 1000 block of West Hollywood Avenue in the Edgewater neighborhood after authorities had flashed a message that it was wanted in the death of Jailene Flores, 21.

Henry pulled over in the 1300 block of West Thorndale Avenue but it hit the front bumper of an unmarked police car, according to a police report. Henry was arrested and police found a loaded 9mm gun in his right pants pocket, the report said. 

Surveillance video inside the Mariano’s store Flores walking away from her boyfriend, according to Evergreen Park Police Chief Michael Saunders. She was then shot multiple times around 9:15 a.m. and found dead inside a storage room, Saunders said.

The police chief said the boyfriend had previously confronted Flores.

“This victim was a previous employee at the Amazon store in Oak Lawn and had left there,” Saunders said. “Had an incident over there with this individual, the suspect, and left that store and began employment over here.”

Henry had been arrested last year in Evergreen Park when he was found with a loaded gun in his car but had no firearm owners identification card, according to court records. He was charged with unlawful possession of a gun and resisting arrest after he refused to be handcuffed by officers.

The charges were dropped months later.
