Artilia Cunningham was 25 when she was fatally shot inside her Auburn Gresham home on the South Side of Chicago on November 26, 2021. The shooting happened about 1:45 a.m. when an unknown assailant fired multiple rounds through a front-room window; Cunningham was struck once in the chest. She was taken to the University of Chicago Medical Center, where she was pronounced dead.

At the time she was sleeping on a couch with her baby, who was unharmed. Cunningham’s two children, ages five years and four months, are now being cared for by the cousin who raised her. Area Two detectives from the Chicago Police Department are investigating; no suspects or arrests have been reported and the investigation remains open.

Does anyone in Auburn Gresham have information about that night or saw anything unusual on the 7600 block of South May Street?
