"Police involved in the investigation said the informant attended a meeting of gang generals when Fort reportedly ordered the killing of Willie Bibbs, 33, of 4120 S. Prairie Ave. Bibbs was shot to death by two men wearing ski masks as he emerged from a South Side tavern on June 15, 1981.
Bibbs was a competing drug dealer and a member of a gang that Fort said had 'shown disrespect' for the El Rukns by assuming 'Stones' as part of its name, mimicking the El Rukns` roots as the Blackstone Rangers and, later, the Black P Stone Nation, investigators said."
