Schenia Smith, a 42-year-old woman from Dolton, Illinois, was killed on September 11, 2021, during a mass shooting in Chicago’s West Pullman neighborhood. The shooting happened around 9:30 p.m. as Smith and a group were leaving a birthday party and walking toward their vehicles. An unknown assailant opened fire from a passing vehicle; Smith was struck in the arm and armpit and taken to the University of Chicago Medical Center, where she was pronounced dead.

Five others were injured in the attack, including off-duty firefighter Timothy Eiland, 32, who was critically wounded after being shot in the face, and his 15-year-old niece Divine O’Neal, who was shot in the arm and survived. Three other men, aged 22, 31, and 38, sustained injuries and were reported in fair condition. The Chicago Police Department is investigating but has not announced any arrests; detectives have appealed for public help and say the lack of offender descriptions has hampered the probe.

Does anyone who was in West Pullman that evening or who has footage from nearby businesses or vehicles have information that could help identify the shooter or the passing vehicle?
