Eric OReilly, 27, of Chicago was shot in the Back of the Yards neighborhood on March 20, 2016 and died two months later at Stroger Hospital, where he was pronounced dead at 5:05 p.m. on May 16, 2016. He is described as a companion, stepfather, son and brother whose family and community held vigils and marches after his shooting.

The Chicago Police Department investigated; initial reports say he was shot during an altercation. Investigators worked to identify a shooter and a motive, but reports say no arrests were made immediately and the case later grew cold as evidence and eyewitness accounts were limited.

Anyone who knew Eric, witnessed the March 20 incident in Back of the Yards, or has information that could help identify a shooter is asked to come forward.
