Antwone J. Price was an 11-year-old boy shot and killed on September 2, 2015, inside a home in the 7400 block of South St. Lawrence Avenue in Chicago around 9 p.m. He was struck in the abdomen and taken to Comer Children’s Hospital, where he died less than an hour later; an autopsy ruled his death a homicide.

The shooting involved Antwone’s 19-year-old uncle, Eurel Wilford, who was handling a gun when the child was hit. Wilford was found with two firearms — a semi-automatic handgun and a loaded pistol — and was charged with unlawful use of a weapon and one count of involuntary manslaughter. Neither weapon was linked to a concealed carry permit or a Firearm Owner’s Identification card for Wilford, and he was held on $100,000 bail.

Antwone was described as a mature sixth grader at Comer College Prep Middle School who had talked about owning a funeral home and had helped plan a relative’s funeral. His death came amid one of the city’s deadliest days since 2003 and followed earlier gun deaths in his family, including his father, Antwone Price Sr., who was found dead in a car in May 2013, and a grandfather killed in 2000.

Does anyone have information about unsecured firearms in that neighborhood or who might be able to shed light on the events that night?
