Deanna Marie Caudillo, 30, was shot dead on September 1, 2018, in an alley in the 700 block of North Central Avenue in the Austin neighborhood on Chicago’s West Side. She was among a group of people when at least one person approached and opened fire; she was struck in the back of the head and pronounced dead at 4:28 a.m. The Cook County medical examiner ruled the death a homicide.

Her killing occurred amid multiple violent incidents in Austin that morning and was the third shooting and second homicide reported in the neighborhood that day. Area North detectives handled the homicide investigation, but there were no immediate arrests or publicly identified suspects in connection with her murder. Deanna lived in Melrose Park and is survived by her children Adrian Corral and Jayline Corral, her parent Minerva Duran, siblings Danielle Caudillo Solis and Jonathan Caudillo, and grandparent Maria Garcia.

Does anyone who was in that area that morning or who knew Deanna have information to help investigators?
