Seventeen-year-old Pierce Curry was fatally shot on August 27, 2013, in Chicago’s Washington Park neighborhood. He was riding in the backseat of a car near the 6200 block of South State Street when another vehicle pulled alongside and an unknown assailant opened fire. Curry was struck in the head and died shortly afterward.

The shooting occurred during a year marked by an intense spike in drive-by shootings and youth victims in Chicago, and the area had a history of gang-related activity. Authorities believed the attack could have been gang-related, but specifics about motive and suspects remained unclear.
