Dujuan Williams, 20, was shot and killed June 27, 2016, in Chicago’s Washington Park neighborhood. His death occurred during 2016, a year when the city recorded a marked rise in homicides, with more than 760 killings by year’s end; much of the violence that year was concentrated on the South and West Sides.

Washington Park is described as an area long affected by persistent violence and gang activity amid poverty and limited access to education and jobs, conditions cited as feeding a cycle of crime. Williams was one of many young people killed during a summer when shootings were at a peak and community efforts and policing did not stop the overall rise in homicides.

Does anyone have information about Dujuan Williams, his life in Washington Park, or the circumstances of the June 27, 2016 shooting?
