Travion Collins was a 13-year-old African American boy who died after being found shot in the head on December 30, 2021, in a bedroom of a home in the 300 block of West Swann Street in the Fuller Park neighborhood on Chicago’s South Side. He was discovered around 5 p.m., taken to Comer Children’s Hospital, and succumbed to his injuries the next day; the Cook County medical examiner’s office confirmed his death and an autopsy was performed.

Area One detectives described the matter as a death investigation while they work to determine the circumstances that led to the shooting. Initial reports said Travion was found alone in the bedroom; investigators have not released information identifying suspects or announcing arrests. His death came days after another child, 12-year-old Marcell Wilson, was killed in a separate shooting in Englewood, intensifying community grief over youth gun violence.

What information can anyone share about Travion, that neighborhood, or events that evening that might help investigators?
