Benson Collins, 55, was fatally shot on June 12, 2015, in Chicago’s Austin neighborhood. Reports say Collins was not the intended target and was struck during what is described as a drive-by shooting that occurred amid a period of elevated gun violence in the city.

The Chicago Police Department’s homicide dataset records the incident at the block level rather than giving a precise address. Collins’ death is one of many listed in Chicago’s 2015 homicide spike, a year that saw hundreds of people killed in the city.

Does anyone have information about Collins, where he lived or was that day, or other details that might help clarify what happened?
