Geanni Boyd was 16 when he was killed on September 4, 2013, in the Washington Park neighborhood of Chicago. He was sitting on a porch with another boy when a bicyclist rode by and opened fire. Geanni was struck multiple times in his lower extremities and was taken to John H. Stroger Jr. Hospital of Cook County, where he was pronounced dead shortly after midnight. The other boy, 15, suffered a graze wound and was treated at the scene.

Both teenagers were documented gang members. Police say the shooter was 16-year-old Deven Skipper, who was arrested at his home after surviving victims identified him. The attack was reportedly connected to a fight Skipper had two days earlier with the 15-year-old and his brother. Skipper was held without bail and charged with first-degree murder and aggravated battery with a firearm.

Does anyone have information about Geanni’s life in Washington Park or the events leading up to the shooting that could help clarify what happened?
