She’nyah O’Flynn was 12 when she was struck and killed by a stray bullet on June 14, 2018, while visiting her father in Chicago. The shooting happened about 11:20 p.m. in the 4200 block of West Wilcox Street in the West Garfield Park neighborhood. She’nyah had been returning from a relative’s graduation party and was exiting a car while holding her 1-year-old cousin when gunfire erupted; she was hit in the neck and was pronounced dead shortly after arrival at Stroger Hospital. A 36-year-old man who was with her was shot in the leg and survived.

Witnesses reported seeing two males shooting near the scene, and it appeared neither She’nyah nor the man with her were the intended targets. No arrests or suspects have been identified and the case remains unsolved; Cook County Crime Stoppers is offering a $15,000 reward for information leading to an arrest. Her family described her as a smart, fun-loving girl who enjoyed hip-hop, dance and soccer and excelled in school.

If anyone has information about that night or the people seen shooting near West Wilcox Street, please share what is known with investigators.
