Ricardo Gomez was 29 when he was shot and killed on September 18, 2018, in the Back of the Yards neighborhood of Chicago. He was sitting inside his 2007 Cadillac SRX in the McDonald’s parking lot at 4158 S. Ashland Ave when three men allegedly pulled into the lot in a stolen gold Toyota, approached his SUV armed with a rifle and handguns, and opened fire. Ricardo attempted to back out and collided with the Toyota before the attackers riddled the Cadillac and him with bullets.

Three men—Jose Gomez, 34, and brothers Steven Calderon, 25, and Edwin Calderon, 30—were charged with first-degree murder. Investigators say the Calderon brothers and Jose Gomez fled in the Toyota, which was pursued by officers; the vehicle was abandoned in an alley near Sacramento and Archer avenues and the three were taken into custody. Officers and investigators recovered two .45-caliber handguns and an AR-15 rifle at the scene.

Does anyone have information about Ricardo, his routine in that neighborhood, or the events leading up to that evening?
