CPS Special Ed Teacher Killed

Erika Prince, 32, was shot and killed yesterday near 87th and Euclid. Prince was a special education teacher at Arthur Dixon elementary school, where she'd taught for the last six years, and she herself was an alumn. Her nine-year-old daughter is an honor student there, too.

Prince was shot while parked outside a relative's house, while her niece and two children went inside to pick up their things. Police haven't identified a motive yet and say it may be a random shooting or a case of mistaken identity. So sad. [Trib, S-T]
