Angelo Young was an 18-year-old Rufus King High School graduate from Milwaukee who was fatally shot during an apparent robbery on the night of July 21, 2015. He was walking home from work near East Garfield Avenue and North Palmer Street around 11:40 p.m., less than a block from his residence, when multiple people reportedly tried to rob him. He suffered a serious gunshot wound, was taken to a hospital, and died; some reports list his date of death as July 21 while initial news accounts said he died at the hospital on July 22.

Investigators searched for a distinctive black, gray, and silver Element-brand backpack believed stolen in the robbery; it may have contained an iPhone 6 with earbuds, silver headphones, and an Educators Credit Union card. Surveillance showed a dark-colored Chevrolet Suburban, thought to be a 1997–1999 model with an unusually loud engine or exhaust, traveling near the scene. No arrests had been announced and detectives later described the case as cold.

Angelo’s family and community have held memorial events and a scholarship in his name while offering a reward for information. Does anyone have information about the distinctive backpack, the Suburban, or the night of July 21, 2015?
