Matthew Miller-Hernandez, a 15-year-old Hispanic male and sophomore at Reavis High School, was shot and killed on November 24, 2021, in Chicago. The shooting occurred about 6:35 p.m. on the sidewalk in the 2500 block of South Blue Island Avenue in the Heart of Chicago neighborhood. He was with a group waiting for a ride-share when a vehicle approached, someone in the car spoke to the group and then opened fire. Matthew was struck in the chest and both shoulders and was pronounced dead shortly after arriving at Stroger Hospital.

His death affected his school and community, and family members including his sister Bianca received public sympathy. Chicago Police Department Area Four detectives are investigating; as of the latest reports no arrests or suspects have been identified and the motive remains unclear. The neighborhood had experienced an increase in homicides and shootings prior to this killing.

Does anyone who was in the area that evening or who knew Matthew have information that could help investigators?
