Transgender Woman Shot to Death in Englewood

Second Transgender Woman Killed in Chicago in Less Than Six Months

A 24-year-old transgender woman was shot to death Tuesday morning in the Englewood neighborhood on Chicago's South Side.

Family and friends knew her as Tiara Richmond, but she also went by the name Keke Collier, said LaSaia Wade, an advocate for transgender rights with Brave Space Alliance.

Richmond was in a vehicle with a male at 6:14 a.m. in the 7300 block of South May Street when the male fired shots, Chicago Police said. When officers arrived, they found Richmond lying on the ground nearby with gunshot wounds to her chest, arm and hand.
