CHICAGO — A man has been charged in connection with the fatal shooting of a UPS driver on Chicago’s South Side last month, according to local police.

The family of the victim revealed that he was attempting to locate his stolen vehicle when the tragic incident occurred.

Police confirmed that Hunter succumbed to his injuries at the scene.

On Friday, police arrested 37-year-old Xavier Wilson of Chicago. He now faces charges of first-degree murder.

Wilson is alleged to have been the one who shot Hunter, according to the Chicago Police Department.

Police did not immediately provide any additional information on what led up to the fatal shooting.

Hunter’s family demanded justice from the site of his death last month.

They had been offering a $10,000 reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction in the case. The family said Hunter was their world.

“He was a provider; whenever you called, he was there,” sister Tori O’Hearn said.

Hunter was a father of three. He and his fiancée had recently bought a home together on the far South Side.

“I thought he would see me graduate and walk the stage,” stepdaughter Brooklyn Nailer said.

“Michael meant everything to me; Michael was my heart, my soul,” his fiancée Ryan Mitchell said.

Hunter’s father tearfully explained he and his son were partners, and drove long-haul trucks for UPS, splitting the driving time.

“They took my son, my driving partner,” Michael Hunter Sr. said.

His family said they found Hunter’s stolen truck the next day 3 miles away.

His family said Hunter grew up in Auburn Gresham, and he had many friends and family in the area. He had just visited his mom when his truck went missing, and he was shot.
