Ivan Lee Patrick Munford, a 32-year-old African American man, was shot multiple times and died on June 22, 2017, in the 900 block of Garfield Avenue Southwest in Canton, Ohio. Court documents say he was shot seven times outside a relative’s house in the early hours of the morning; the Canton Police Department investigated the case.

Investigators arrested 37-year-old Ronald R. Shanklin of Illinois; he was charged with murder and felonious assault. The case went to trial and in April 2018 a jury found Shanklin guilty of murder. He was sentenced to at least 28 years in prison for his role in Munford’s death.

Munford was remembered by family as a devoted fiancé, son, brother, and father who enjoyed fishing at Atwood Lake and Berlin Lake and worked to provide for his loved ones. Does anyone who knew Ivan or who has information about the shooting have anything to share with investigators?
