Christopher Fields was 17 when he was killed in a drive-by shooting on June 11, 2016, in Chicago’s Back of the Yards neighborhood. A sophomore at Urban Prep Englewood Campus, Fields was shot in the back and later died at Stroger Hospital. A 19-year-old who was with him was also wounded in the attack.

The investigation led to the arrest and conviction of Deonte Davis; Davis received prison terms that include 30 years for first-degree murder, 15 years for aggravated battery with a firearm, and five years for attempted armed robbery. Three months after testifying against Davis, Fields’ pregnant cousin Treja Kelley, 18, was also gunned down in September 2019.

The Fields family has lost multiple relatives to gun violence and continues to grieve. If anyone knew Christopher, Treja, or has information about either killing, please come forward to help the families seek justice.
