Chicago police are working to find out who shot and killed Javonni Jenkins and Curtis Hardman on South Drexel Avenue in East Chatham.
ABC7 Chicago has blurred the child's face to protect his identity.The two victims have been identified as Javonni Jenkins and her father, Curtis Hardman.
"No one was answering, so finally the baby answered. We tried calling again through FaceTime to see if he answered, and he answered," said Viviana, one of Jenkins' co-workers who was too distraught to show her face. "All we could see was from his face up, so the ceiling the majority of the time," said one colleague who didn't want to be identified. "He was kind of just walking around, and they didn't hear any adult in the background."
"The whole time I had the baby on the phone, he was very content, playing with his toys," said Nicole Worth, another of Jenkins' co-workers. "Once I had that baby on the phone and after a certain amount of time of no parents calling the baby, you don't hear that -- there's something wrong."
