Trevon D. Smith was 15 when he was killed by gunfire in Chicago on July 17, 2016. He was an African American male, and his death came during a week that saw multiple shootings in the city.

The scarcity of reporting and public detail on Trevon’s case is striking and reflects a wider pattern of limited coverage for some young Black victims of gun violence. That lack of information can make it harder for families and communities to keep a case in the public eye.

If anyone knew Trevon, witnessed the shooting, or has information that could help investigators, please come forward to the Chicago authorities.
