Edgar Arroyo, 30, was fatally shot the night of August 2, 2025, in Chicago’s Brighton Park neighborhood. He and a 57-year-old man were standing outside in the 3000 block of West 37th Place around 9 p.m. when a white car pulled up, three men got out with guns and opened fire. Arroyo was struck in the shoulder and lower back, taken to Mount Sinai Hospital in serious condition, and later died; the other victim was also hospitalized in serious condition.

Police and the Cook County medical examiner identified Arroyo and confirmed the location and date. An obituary from his family says he was born in Chicago in 1995 and notes his family ties. No arrests have been announced, no one is in custody, investigators have not released a motive, and the shooters fled the scene.

If anyone in Brighton Park that night saw the white car, the shooters, or has dashcam or doorbell footage, please share what you know with investigators.
