Jossean Rueda was 19 when he was fatally shot on June 7, 2015, in Chicago’s Austin neighborhood. The shooting happened about 3:50 a.m. while Rueda and a friend, 19-year-old Richard Rodriguez, were driving; a light-colored vehicle pulled alongside and someone inside opened fire. Rueda was struck multiple times in the torso; Rodriguez was shot in the head and torso. Both were taken to Stroger Hospital and later pronounced dead.

Police arrested 31-year-old Jose Ortiz in April 2016 on the city’s Southwest Side and charged him with two counts of first-degree murder; he was held without bond. The motive for the attack has not been disclosed.

Did anyone in the Austin neighborhood see or hear anything that night, or have information about the light-colored vehicle involved?
