Heiberto Rodriguez was 29 when he was fatally shot in Chicago on July 24, 2011. His death came during a summer that saw a very high number of homicides in the city; that year totaled 433 killings. Rodriguez was killed on a summer night amid a wave of gun violence tied to gang activity, personal disputes, and wider socio-economic problems affecting multiple neighborhoods.

Reports indicate there were few substantial leads in his case, a situation shared by many 2011 homicides as investigators struggled to gather information and witnesses. The murder of Heiberto Rodriguez remains one of numerous unsolved killings from that year that underline calls for more resources and broader efforts to reduce gun violence.

If anyone knew Heiberto or has information about what happened that night, please come forward.
