Anthony Collins, 30, of Maywood, Illinois, was fatally shot on November 19, 2017, in Chicago’s Austin neighborhood. At about 1:46 p.m. he was in the 1600 block of North Mango Avenue when a gunshot struck his leg; he was pronounced dead at roughly 2:28 p.m. Reports say Collins pleaded with the gunman in the moments before he was shot, trying to stop further firing.

No arrests or identified suspects have been reported and the case remains unsolved. Family and friends remember Collins as funny and devoted; he is survived by four children. A memorial on the National Gun Violence Memorial lists 247 candles for him.
