Lucille Barnes was 34 when she was shot and killed on June 23, 2015, on the corner of 75th and Stewart in Chicago’s Englewood neighborhood. According to reports, she was trying to break up a fight when a car drove by and shots were fired, striking and killing her. She was a young mother and her death prompted immediate community grief.

Three days after the killing, Tamar Manasseh and a group of mothers formed Mothers Against Senseless Killings (M.A.S.K.) and began staffing the same corner with food, games, and a presence aimed at creating a safer space for children. Local accounts say their efforts coincided with a decline in violent crime and gun incidents in that area.

Police investigated the shooting, but no arrests or publicly identified suspects have been reported and the case remains unsolved. Does anyone have information about that night or remember seeing activity at 75th and Stewart around June 23, 2015?
