Anton Pooh Bear Sanders was a 15-year-old African American male from Chicago who was shot multiple times and found unresponsive on a Rogers Park sidewalk on January 20, 2012. The shooting happened about 10:45 p.m. in the 1800 block of Juneway Terrace; a citizen discovered his body and called 911. He was taken to a nearby hospital and pronounced dead shortly after arrival.

Investigators identified Dante Simmons, a 33-year-old neighborhood resident, as a suspect; he was also linked to another shooting at a River North Walgreens. Before police could question him, Simmons was found dead from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound in an Evanston alley, leaving key questions about motive and circumstances unresolved. After Anton’s death, members of his gang adopted the name Pooh Bear Gang (PBG) in his memory.

If anyone knew Anton, Dante Simmons, or saw activity around Juneway Terrace that night, can you share what you remember?
