CHICAGO — With her son’s death in the heart of Chicago still roiling the city, Seandell Holliday’s mother said she didn’t give the 16-year-old permission to go downtown before he was fatally shot near The Bean on Sunday night.
Seandell was Chanell Holliday’s oldest of six children, and she tried to keep them home as much as possible, worried about Chicago’s violence.
“Whenever my kids even be outside, I’m concerned about my kids. This is Chicago. Aren’t you concerned about your life in Chicago?” Holliday said. “I said, ‘You’re not going to go downtown.’”
