Man charged with drug-related murder in Elgin

Donte M. Durr

A Chicago man has been charged with drug-related manslaughter in Elgin, authorities said.

Donte M. Durr, 34, of the 1600 block of North Drake Avenue, was arrested August 14.

He is accused of killing 19-year-old Marcel Muyumba on December 22, 2023, by supplying him with bromazolam and fentanyl. Muyumba died of an overdose, police said.

Bromazolam is a sedative and anti-anxiety drug; fentanyl is an opioid painkiller.

According to an Elgin police report, Durr arranged to sell two tablets of a substance alleged to be Percocet, an opioid painkiller, for $40.

The address where Muyumba died and the address of the sale were redacted from the police report. The Daily Herald obtained the document through a Freedom of Information Act request as police declined to answer questions last week.

Durr is being held in the Kane County Jail. His next court date is Wednesday.
