A Chicago man charged in the shooting deaths of a father and son who owned a Little Village jewelry store was arrested in St. Louis, according to Chicago police.
Muhammad Thomas, 35, faces nine felony charges including two counts of first-degree murder, three counts of armed robbery, two counts of aggravated battery, burglary and armed vehicular hijacking, according to police. The charges are from three separate burglaries that span three years. Three warrants were executed with his arrest.
Thomas is accused of killing Berwyn resident Faustino Alamo, 63, and his son, Luis Angel Alamo, 25, after he grabbed some jewelry from their store and they ran after him the afternoon of Nov. 8, 2025. Faustino Alamo fired off one or two shots with his own weapon, according to a police report.
He’s also accused of shooting and “seriously injuring” a 26-year-old man July 28, 2023, in the 1700 block of West Maypole Avenue and a July 16, 2024 armed robbery in the 2300 block of West Cermak Road.
Thomas is expected in court Friday.
