Anthony Bernard Wiley Ray was 15 when he was fatally shot on a street in Omaha, Nebraska, on November 8, 2008. Described as a straight-A student who loved his family and animals, Anthony’s death ended a promising life and left his family and community grieving.

The Omaha Police Department investigated the homicide, but the case went cold due to a lack of witnesses and concrete leads. The investigation remains officially open; law enforcement has periodically appealed to the public for information. No arrests have been announced and no suspects have been publicly identified.

Anthony’s family has kept his memory alive while awaiting answers. If anyone has information about what happened on that November day or remembers seeing anything unusual in Anthony’s neighborhood, please come forward and share what you know.
