Jose L. Lopez, 37, was fatally shot on December 26, 2015, while sitting outside in the Little Village neighborhood on Chicago’s Southwest Side. His death came during a holiday weekend and was one of many homicides that year as the city experienced a sharp rise in gun violence.

Little Village is described as culturally vibrant but also troubled by high rates of violence, including activity linked to gangs. Lopez’s killing was counted among the broader surge of shootings in 2015, a year that saw over 2,900 shooting victims citywide.

Did anyone in Little Village at the time see or hear anything about Lopez that could help explain what happened?
