Bar, bank blamed in drug shooting

On Jun. 19, 2005, police say, at the Keg of Evanston pub in suburban Chicago, Antoine Hill, then 19, shot to death Robert Gresham, 22, in a dispute over drugs. Now Gresham’s estate is suing the bar, for allegedly letting Hill inside and serving him alcohol; and a bank, as well as Hill himself. “Charles Jacques, the attorney representing Gresham’s estate, said he suspects the bank might own the building the bar is in.” Hill has pleaded not guilty to charges of first-degree murder.
