Marlan Dixon was a 20-year-old African American man who was killed in a drive-by shooting in Chicago on August 11, 2015. The shooting happened in the Altgeld Gardens neighborhood in the 700-block of East 131st Street just before 11 p.m. He was found with gunshot wounds to his face and chest and was pronounced dead at Roseland Community Hospital at 11:33 p.m.

Witnesses reported shots coming from inside a dark-colored SUV that fled the scene. No suspects were immediately apprehended and the investigation remains open. Marlan’s family and community have expressed grief and frustration over the lack of arrests and have called for increased efforts to address gun violence.
