Chicago authorities are intensifying efforts to find the 7-year-old nephew of Oscar-winning actress Jennifer Hudson while investigating the shooting deaths of Hudson’s brother and mother.
An Amber Alert is still in effect for Julian King, who went missing from his South Side neighborhood home on Friday. That was the same day that the bodies of his grandmother — 57-year-old Darnell Donerson — and 29-year-old uncle Jason Hudson were found in the home they shared.
Their deaths have been ruled homicides.
Chicago police spokesman Dan O’Brien says the search for King is citywide. But on Sunday residents and officers are focusing their search efforts “in the immediate vicinity” of Hudson’s home.
Searchers plan to comb streets on foot and hand out fliers.
