Eric Washington was 25 when he was fatally shot on April 29, 2015, in the University Village neighborhood of Chicago. The shooting happened shortly after noon in the 1200 block of West Washburne Avenue, near his residence. Police say Washington was standing in a parking lot when he was shot in the back and abdomen; he was taken to Stroger Hospital and pronounced dead at 12:45 p.m.

The killing occurred during a week of heavy gun violence in the city, when at least three people were killed and ten others wounded in separate shootings across Chicago. In August 2015 police arrested 20-year-old Dejon Curtis and charged him with two counts of murder, aggravated battery with a firearm and aggravated battery on an occupied vehicle; authorities stated Curtis shot Washington during the April 29 attack and he was ordered held without bond.

Washington’s death is remembered on sites dedicated to victims of gun violence. Does anyone have information about Washington, his movements that day, or the neighborhood parking lot where he was shot?
