Floyd Peterson, 32, was shot and killed on July 24, 2011, on the 7400 block of East 74th Street in the Greater Grand Crossing neighborhood of Chicago. The shooting happened one evening after an argument with three men escalated into violence; Peterson was struck multiple times, including in the chest, and died shortly afterward.

His death was one of 433 homicides recorded in Chicago that year, a figure mentioned as part of a wider pattern of firearm-related disputes and dangerous confrontations in public spaces. The neighborhood where the shooting occurred is described as having a heightened crime rate and Peterson’s killing was cited as an example of the city’s struggle with gun violence in 2011.

If anyone remembers the incident or has information about the men involved in the argument, please come forward.
