Crisberly Yoeling Rea Lopez was 28 and living in Chicago’s East Side when she was shot and killed during a domestic disturbance in the early morning hours of December 8, 2025. Officers responding to reports of a disturbance on the 9600 block of South Avenue N arrived about 2:37 a.m. and found her with multiple gunshot wounds; she was pronounced dead at the scene.

Police detained a 29-year-old man on the premises who was identified by authorities and family members as the victim’s estranged husband. A firearm was recovered at the location; investigators say the shooting took place amid a domestic dispute and that one of the victim’s young daughters had secretly called for help during the incident.

Crisberly had arrived from Venezuela in February 2024 and supported her four children by working at nail salons, grocery stores, and as a food delivery driver. Her mother, Cristina Lopez, and other relatives are caring for the children while the community has organized fundraising to help with funeral and basic needs. Does anyone who knew Crisberly or her family have information that could help the investigation?
