Missing Ride-Share Driver Found Dead In Trunk Of Car

CHICAGO, IL - A south suburban man who was reported missing a few days earlier was found dead in the trunk of a car parked in the city's Beverly neighborhood on Tuesday. Multiple reports indicate 37-year-old Aaron Wiley of Calumet City was the victim. Police said he sustained gunshot wounds to the neck and head.

Police said Wiley's body was found around 4:45 p.m. in the 9700 block of South Charles Street, just two blocks east of Ridge Park, according to a Chicago Tribune report. The Cook County Medical Examiner's Office later confirmed Wiley's identity.

As the investigation into his death unfolds, police plan to track his ride-share fares and phone activity to see if there are any leads there that help with the case, WGN reported.

No one is in custody in connection with the shooting as of Thursday morning and the circumstances surrounding it remain unknown, Chicago police said.
