Ryan Andrew Tygercat Arliskas, 27, was fatally shot in the neck on April 8, 2022, while walking home in the McKinley Park neighborhood of Chicago. The shooting occurred in the 2000 block of West 35th Street after three teenage boys approached him, pushed him into an alley, and shot him; nothing was taken from him and the motive remains unclear.

A 14-year-old was arrested and later charged with first-degree murder; he pleaded guilty in March 2023 and received a five-year sentence in juvenile detention. A second teenager, 15, was also charged and arrested on the Near West Side. A third boy seen in surveillance images has not been taken into custody or questioned.

Ryan is remembered by family and friends for his passion for music and his vibrant personality. Does anyone have information about the third teenager seen on surveillance or about Ryan’s movements that night?
