Fifteen-year-old Jazmyne Jeter was shot and killed on May 8, 2018, while sitting on a porch in the Englewood neighborhood on Chicago’s South Side. A freshman at ACE Technical Charter High School who loved basketball and dance, Jazmyne was visiting her former neighborhood with her older sister when a vehicle drove by and someone inside opened fire. She was struck in the chest and later pronounced dead at Advocate Christ Medical Center.

Investigators concluded the shooter fired from the vehicle rather than from a gangway and did not believe Jazmyne was the intended target; police said the group she was with had returned fire and that the gunman may have been dropped off in an alley as part of a getaway. Jazmyne was one of at least 16 people shot across Chicago that day. No arrests had been announced and the case remained under investigation.

If anyone remembers that night or has information about the vehicle or people involved, please come forward to help Jazmyne’s family find answers.
