Nearly 4 years after brazen, execution-style murder, family of 71-year-old seeks answers

CHICAGO (WGN) — Jury selection begins Friday in the case of a South Side man charged with the execution-style murder of a 71-year-old man on a Chinatown street.

After years of delays, Alphonso Joyner will stand trial in connection with the shooting death of Woom Sing Tse. Prosecutors have never identified a clear motive in the deadly shooting.

According to police, Tse was walking on the 200 block of West 23rd Place around noon on December 7, 2021 when shots were fired from a silver sedan. Joyner then exited the vehicle and reshot Tse before driving off.

More than 20 bullets were fired. Joyner was arrested shortly thereafter on the Kennedy Expressway.
