On September 18, 1995, 36-year-old Anthony Branch Sr. was shot and killed inside his apartment on SE Ash Street in Portland, Oregon. Two unidentified men wearing ski masks broke the sliding glass doors to gain entry at about 8:25 p.m.; after a brief confrontation Branch was shot and left to die. Witnesses saw the assailants flee east on Ash Street on foot.

Branch was described as a known associate of the Crips and involved in drug dealing, details investigators have cited as possible motives in the case. Despite rewards and repeated appeals for information, the identities of the shooters remain unknown and the homicide is unsolved. New leads or forensic advances are being sought to bring closure to Branch’s family.

If anyone has information about that night, the suspects, or activity on SE Ash Street around 8:25 p.m., please share what you know with investigators.
