Widow of carjack victim: “I want my husband back”

A tearful widow spoke to CBS2 in Chicago in a heart-wrenching interview after a group of carjackers shot and killed her husband.

Video shows 33-year-old Shuai Guan losing his life during an apparent carjacking.

The Chicago Sun Times and WGN report it happened just as he exited his car and another car approached alongside.

“I want my husband back,” his wife Hongyu Bai said to CBS2. “It’s the worst day of my life.”

Bai said she received a call from her father telling her she better get home. When she arrived and saw the police vehicles, her heart sunk.

“I just asked him, ‘Please tell me he’s alive, he’s still alive,’ they say, ‘Sorry.’ They say, ‘Sorry,’ And they wouldn’t let me see him. I don’t touch him.” 

The incident captured the attention of city leaders as reports of carjacking in rises dramatically in Chicago.

“This wasn’t a carjacking. It was murder,” said Ald. Patrick Daley Thompson.

There are conflicting reports of whether Guan resisted the carjacking. CBS2 reports he gave up the keys to his car and backed away. The Sun Times and WGN report he refused to give up his keys and called 911.

There have been  1,335 carjackings so far this year compared to 514 all of last year.
