Joseph R. Gutierrez was 20 when he was shot and killed on July 2, 2015, in Chicago’s Little Village neighborhood. He was riding a bicycle at the time he was fatally shot during a deadly July 4th holiday weekend that produced multiple shootings across the city. That weekend saw nine people killed and dozens wounded, and officials linked the surge to a wave of violence affecting several neighborhoods.

Details about motive and the circumstances of Joseph’s shooting remain unclear. The Chicago Police Department did not provide an immediate resolution about who was responsible. Family and friends remembered him as outgoing, a sports fan who could bring laughter and joy, and someone close to his family; memorials and expressions of grief followed his death.

Does anyone who knew Joseph or who was in Little Village that weekend have information that could help clarify what happened?
