Corey Bowens, 24, was fatally shot inside his apartment in the 1400 block of South 11th Street on Milwaukee’s south side during the early morning hours of Saturday, May 16, 2015. Milwaukee police pronounced him dead at the scene after discovering he had suffered fatal gunshot wounds. Authorities did not immediately say how the gunman gained access to the residence, whether an argument or confrontation preceded the shooting, or whether Bowens knew the person responsible.

Police confirmed Bowens’ identity later that afternoon and said the circumstances were under investigation; no suspects were reported in custody at that time and investigators had not publicly identified a possible gunman or motive. Reporting offers few additional details about the events inside the apartment, and no subsequent arrest, charges, trial, or conviction directly linked to the killing is verifiable in news coverage. His case remains listed in publicly accessible cold-case records with the core questions of who fired the fatal shots and why still unanswered.

If anyone knew Corey, saw activity around the 1400 block of South 11th Street on May 16, 2015, or has information that could help, please come forward.
