Anthony Riggs, a 25-year-old African American man from Rockford, Illinois, was found dead in his home on February 2, 2014. Initial reports said he suffered multiple gunshot wounds, and the Rockford Police Department treated the death as a homicide. Authorities say Riggs had been involved in a dispute in the weeks before his killing, with threats reported, and that he was apparently confronted by at least two people who forced their way into his residence on the night he was shot.

The case against them reportedly relied on ballistics, DNA and eyewitness testimony; both pleaded not guilty at trial. The violence shocked the Rockford community and prompted calls for increased local intervention to prevent similar incidents.

If anyone knew Anthony, his movements before February 2, 2014, or has information about the confrontation at his home, please come forward.
