Edison Castillo, 36, was shot and killed on December 13, 2009, in a garage in the Humboldt Park neighborhood of Chicago. The shooting underscores the sudden, unpredictable nature of gun violence affecting that neighborhood at the time.

In 2009 Chicago recorded 453 homicides, and police data from that period linked many incidents to interpersonal disputes and gang-related activity. Humboldt Park faced the same pressures as other communities coping with limited economic opportunities and persistent crime; responses then included increased law enforcement presence and community-based intervention programs, with uneven impact across the city.

Does anyone have information about Edison Castillo, his last known whereabouts, or the circumstances in that garage on December 13, 2009?
