Jesus Escobar, 16, was fatally shot on May 6, 2017, while standing outside on the 4800 block of South La Crosse Avenue on Chicago’s Southwest Side. A 19-year-old who was with him was also wounded. The shooters fired from an SUV and fled the scene in the Garfield Ridge neighborhood.

A $10,000 reward was offered for information leading to the arrest of those responsible. Friends and family remember Jesus as quiet and shy; an online memorial page has gathered tributes and candles in his honor. The shooting was one of many gun violence incidents in the city that year.

If anyone knew Jesus, saw the incident, or has information about the shooters or the SUV, please come forward to help bring answers.
