Ramon Salgado was 21 when he was shot and killed in Chicago on March 21, 2012. His death occurred during a surge of violence that month, when the city recorded 53 homicides in March 2012 alone.

The killing came amid broader factors cited for the spike in murders that year: an unusually warm March that increased street activity and the disbanding of specialized police units that had focused on crime hot spots and gang-heavy neighborhoods. Salgado’s death was one of many that underscored how gun violence disproportionately affected young men in neighborhoods struggling with limited resources.

Does anyone have information about Ramon Salgado, where he spent time, or the circumstances of that March 21 shooting?
