On January 28, 2025, 37-year-old Hispanic woman Oriana Rodriguez was found dead from a gunshot wound to the head in an alley in the South Shore neighborhood of Chicago. She and a 39-year-old Hispanic woman, Yeris Norelis Jimenez Castillo, were discovered in the 7700 block of South Oglesby Avenue around 4:50 a.m. and were pronounced dead at the scene.

A third Hispanic woman survived despite gunshot wounds to her face and chest; she was able to knock on nearby doors and get help and was taken to the University of Chicago Medical Center with critical injuries. Investigators say the three may have been kidnapped and possibly targeted in execution-style killings, and they are examining whether the victims were migrants or had been trafficked. Area 2 detectives are investigating, and no arrests or suspects have been publicly identified.

If anyone has information about the incident, the victims, or the early-morning activity in that block of South Oglesby Avenue, please share what you know.
