Donnell Hudson Jr. was 17 when he was fatally shot on May 13, 2017, in the Roseland neighborhood of Chicago. Known as Shorty, he was standing outside when someone shot him; police described the circumstances as initially unclear and opened a homicide investigation.

No immediate arrests were made, and investigators reported difficulty getting witnesses to come forward. His death intensified grief and calls for action in a neighborhood already affected by gun violence.

Anyone who knew Donnell or has information about what happened that night is asked to contact the Chicago Police Department.
