Tiara M. Parks, 23, was shot and killed on April 23, 2016, in the Roseland neighborhood of Chicago. The shooting happened around 9 p.m. at 114th and South Stewart Avenue as Parks and two other people were exiting a vehicle; an unknown assailant opened fire. Parks was struck in the head and pronounced dead at Roseland Community Hospital. The two men shot with her — a 24-year-old hit in the lower back and a 27-year-old hit in the left leg — were taken to the hospital and later stabilized.

The shooting occurred near Haley Elementary Academy, identified as a Safe Zone, and about 20 people were on the block that night. The car’s driver tried to take the victims to the hospital but crashed en route. Community activist Andrew Holmes distributed flyers hoping school surveillance might yield leads. Parks was a recent college graduate, a single mother to a 3-year-old boy, and the daughter of a Cook County Sheriff’s deputy; the Sheriff’s Office offered condolences to the family. No arrests have been announced and the investigation remains ongoing.

Did anyone in Roseland see or record something that night that could help bring answers?
