John Carlos Barba was 16 when he was killed in a drive-by shooting on May 27, 2020, in Chicago’s Garfield Ridge neighborhood. He and a 17-year-old companion were in a vehicle on South Cicero Avenue when a black sedan passed and someone inside opened fire. John was struck in the torso; the other teen was grazed in the back and survived. John was transported to MacNeal Hospital in Berwyn and later died at Loyola University Medical Center in Maywood.

Area One detectives investigated the case. No suspects have been publicly identified and no arrests have been announced. John’s parents, Jesus Barba and Lorena Curiel, and his many siblings held visitation and a funeral under COVID-19 attendance restrictions.
