Gino Martin G-Money Carrasco, 22, was shot and killed in the early hours of April 23, 2016, while leaving a store in the 3200 block of West 16th Street in Chicago’s North Lawndale neighborhood. He was shot at about 1:14 a.m. and was pronounced dead shortly after the attack.

His death occurred amid a sharp rise in gun violence across Chicago in 2016, a year that saw over 760 people killed. North Lawndale was one of the neighborhoods heavily affected by that wave of shootings, linked in reports to gang activity, disputes, and widespread firearm availability.

Friends and family remembered Carrasco as a beloved community member with a vibrant personality. If anyone knew Gino, was in North Lawndale that night, or has information about the shooting, please share what is known.
