Doctoral student killed by stray bullet in Chicago just hours after arriving to study at Northwestern


Shane Colombo, a 25 years old California native who had studied at Columbia University in New York City the last two years, was shot
near a bus stop in the Rogers Park neighborhood on the far north side of the city few moments after he arrived Chicago. He had been scheduled to join Northwestern's psychology program.
"We Skyped and I told him like, 'you need to stay home. You need to rest. You just got in,'" his grieving fiance Vincent Perez said during a press conference on Tuesday.
"I was very concerned about him coming out here, and he was killed within four hours of being in the city, four hours of stepping off that plane," mother Tonya Colombo told ABC News "I put him on a plane that morning at 10 a.m. [in California] and I kissed him goodbye, and that was the last time I saw him alive."
Investigators say Colombo was caught in the crossfire as two suspects fired at each other. He was shot in the abdomen and passed away at a nearby hospital.
