Edgar Rodriguez was 19 when he was fatally shot on September 26, 2009, on Chicago’s West Side in the Humboldt Park neighborhood. He was walking near the 800 block of North St. Louis Avenue when he was approached by a group; an argument followed and Rodriguez was shot.

The killing occurred during a year of intense violence in Chicago — 2009 saw more than 450 homicides — and Humboldt Park was described as an area especially affected by gang activity that sometimes spilled over onto residents not directly involved. Police and community leaders were reported to be working to address the rise in homicides amid widespread availability of illegal firearms and ongoing social and economic challenges.

Does anyone have information about Edgar, his movements that day, or witnesses who were in the area of North St. Louis Avenue on September 26, 2009?
