The story is still developing, but news is breaking that Dwyane Wade’s first cousin, Nykea Aldridge, was shot and killed today in the south side of Chicago.
The mother of four children was walking with a stroller on route to register her kids for the upcoming school year.
An altercation occurred on the street between two men that were unknown to Aldridge, and she was caught in the crossfire, shot in the arm and head.
Police are saying that more details will come and they are currently questioning two men in connection with the incident. In the meantime Dwyane Wade posted this on twitter just an hour ago…
