Randall Young was a 16-year-old from West Englewood who was shot and killed while walking home on May 2, 2016. He and another teenager were taking a shortcut through a narrow alley off the 7100 block of South Laflin Street when a male assailant approached and fired at close range. Randall was struck in the head and chest and was pronounced dead at Advocate Christ Medical Center at 10:55 p.m.; the other youth survived with a graze wound and was treated at St. Bernard Hospital.

Family and friends remembered Randall as a caring, funny teen who loved rapping, basketball and dreamed even of becoming a neurosurgeon. His mother, April Campbell, reportedly tried to share leads with detectives but did not receive a response.

Did anyone in West Englewood see activity in that alley on the evening of May 2, 2016 or have information that could help close this case?
