On June 19, 2023, 17-year-old Shaniya Robinson was killed in a drive-by shooting in the West Garfield Park neighborhood of Chicago. The shooting occurred late that night when someone in a dark-colored sedan opened fire in the 3800 block of West Gladys Avenue; Shaniya, who was on a front porch, was shot in the eye and pronounced dead at the scene. Two other teenagers—a 17-year-old girl and a 19-year-old man—were wounded and are expected to recover.

Shaniya had recently celebrated prom and her graduation from Ogden International High School the month before. Her family expressed profound grief and said they were devastated by the loss. Police have indicated Shaniya was likely not the intended target, and no arrests have been announced as the investigation continues.

If anyone saw activity near West Gladys Avenue on the night of June 19, 2023, or has information about the dark-colored sedan involved, please come forward.
