Demario Collins, 19, was fatally shot in the North Lawndale neighborhood of Chicago on the evening of April 24, 2014. He suffered multiple gunshot wounds, including to his head, arm, and shoulder, and was taken to Mount Sinai Hospital where he was pronounced dead.

The shooting occurred in a neighborhood described as plagued by persistent gun violence tied to poverty, limited economic opportunity, and ongoing gang conflicts. 2014 was a year of numerous shootings across Chicago, with North Lawndale among the hardest hit, and Collins’ death is noted as part of that broader spike in violence.

Does anyone have information about the April 24, 2014 shooting or knew Demario Collins and can share details that might help understand what happened?
