Faizon Smith, an 18-year-old from Chicago, was killed on October 14, 2016, in the West Garfield Park neighborhood. His death occurred during an unusually violent weekend in the city when eight people were killed and at least 40 others were wounded in shootings. Faizon was one of many young victims within Chicago’s broader surge in homicides that year; 2016 recorded 764 murders in the city, a rise linked in reports to gang activity and gaps in community policing to address violence hotspots.

Does anyone who knew Faizon or who was in West Garfield Park on October 14, 2016 have information about what happened that day?
