Deandre Trotter, 24, was shot and killed on April 7, 2016, on the 3400 block of West Chicago Avenue in the Humboldt Park neighborhood of Chicago. The shooting happened in the afternoon and struck Trotter and another person, 18-year-old Deangelo Black; both men died. The attack was described as targeted and was reported amid a sharp rise in Chicago homicides in 2016.

Coverage of the year placed this killing in the context of wider problems: persistent gang-related violence, ready availability of firearms, and local debates about policing and community violence-prevention efforts. Those broader issues were cited as factors that affected neighborhoods like Humboldt Park and left residents at heightened risk.

If anyone has information about the April 7, 2016 shooting or knew either victim, please share what you know with investigators.
