Sheroid Liggins, 19, was fatally shot in the head on February 16, 2012, in Chicago’s Greater Grand Crossing neighborhood. Police found him on the sidewalk in the 6400 block of South King Drive at about 6:46 p.m.; he was taken to Stroger Hospital in critical condition and was pronounced dead just before 11 p.m. on February 20, 2012. The Cook County medical examiner confirmed his identity and an autopsy resulted in the case being classified as a homicide.

Investigators described the assailant and motive as unknown and said no suspects had been identified at that time. The shooting underscores ongoing gun violence in some Chicago neighborhoods and leaves many unanswered questions about why Liggins was targeted.

If anyone has information about Sheroid Liggins, his activities that evening, or the 6400 block of South King Drive on February 16, 2012, please come forward.
