Shaquandra Ratliff, a 20-year-old from Chicago, was killed on September 6, 2015, during a violent altercation at an outdoor memorial party in the Woodlawn neighborhood. The disturbance happened about 1:30 a.m. at a gathering marking the death of a gang member from the year before. Although the event was gang-affiliated, Ratliff had no gang ties and was attending the memorial; she was struck in the head when shots were fired and died at the scene.

Ratliff left behind a two-year-old daughter and a grieving family. Her younger sister Shakia described her as loving, outspoken and sometimes too trusting. Her death was one of eight killings and forty-six people wounded over that Labor Day weekend in the city, part of a broader rise in gun violence that summer.

Does anyone who was in Woodlawn that night or who knew Shaquandra have information that could shed light on what happened?
