Anthony Thomas, 25, of Delray Beach, Florida, was killed on September 27, 2016, after a shootout on Southwest First Street. According to the Delray Beach Police Department, Thomas and another man, Jarrell Williams, exchanged gunfire; Thomas ran into an alley after being shot and later died of his wounds. Williams was also wounded but went to a nearby store for help and survived.

Investigators concluded Thomas was the initial aggressor and that Williams returned fire in self-defense. Police gathered witness statements and forensic evidence and ultimately decided not to file charges against Williams because his actions were ruled justifiable. The community was left dealing with the loss and the difficult questions the case raised about violent confrontations and self-defense.

Does anyone have information about the events on Southwest First Street that day or knew Anthony Thomas?
