Erik D. Loggins, 40, was shot and killed in Chicago on April 14, 2012. His death came during a year that saw a sharp rise in homicides across the city, with 2012 ending with more than 500 murders and a roughly 60 percent increase in the early part of the year compared with the prior period.

Police data place Loggins’s killing within a wider surge of gun-related crime affecting multiple neighborhoods, driven in part by conflicts in areas facing socioeconomic challenges and problems with illegal firearms and gang activity. The spike reversed earlier progress in reducing violence and left many communities dealing with the consequences.

Does anyone have information about Erik Loggins, or recall details surrounding the April 14, 2012 shooting?
