Peoria County Coroner Jamie Harwood said Jordan L. Allison of Peoria was pronounced dead in an operating room at OSF HealthCare Saint Francis Medical Center. At 2:48 a.m., officers responded to a ShotSpotter alert of multiple rounds fired in the 2300 block of North Peoria Avenue, said Peoria police spokeswoman Amy Dotson. Upon arrival, officers located a crime scene at the intersection of Peoria and Archer avenues, she said. At 2:55 a.m., officers were notified that a victim of a shooting had been dropped off at the hospital via private vehicle, Dotson said. "Despite aggressive efforts, Allison was pronounced deceased at 4:06 this morning in the OR," Harwood said. Autopsy findings indicate Allison was shot once in the upper back, which caused "a detrimental amount of bleeding that unfortunately was not able to be controlled," Harwood said. One bullet was recovered during the autopsy, however, the caliber of the weapon is not known, he said. According to the autopsy, Allison did not have defensive wounds or any other injuries. Police did not immediately furnish more details about the shooting. Sunday morning, officers and detectives canvassed the area seeking anyone with information. Officers used dogs at the scene to search for evidence. This was the city's 12th criminal homicide of 2018. Anyone with information regarding this shooting is asked to contact the Peoria Police Department at (309) 673-4521 or CrimeStoppers anonymously at (309) 673-9000.
