Area residents are gathering to protest Chicago violence in 2022 so far. CPD data for January is also coming soon.
People marched down 26th Street toward Pulaski Road, where the little girl was killed - caught in the crossfire between rival gang members, as she walked with her mother.
Delilah Martinez with the Mural Movement said they plan to create a mural for Melissa in Little Village."This affects me in many ways because this affects my community," Martinez said."My family is from Little Village and from Pilsen, and I could just imagine if this was my daughter, or my cousin or my little sister."
Another rally is coming from the Markham chapter of the Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, joining local elected officials to increase awareness of violence against Black women. On Jan. 14, hairstylist Tamiko Talbert-Fleming was gunned down as she parked her car before working at a Chicago Lawn hair salon. Just days before that, pregnant mom 29-year old Derricka Patrick was shot to death while she sat in her parked car in front of her South Side home.
