Anthony Suarez, 27, was shot and killed in Chicago’s Back of the Yards neighborhood on July 5, 2012. Just after 2 a.m. he was riding in a vehicle on the 1800 block of West 45th Street when another vehicle pulled up alongside and a gunman opened fire, striking him multiple times in the chest. He was taken to John H. Stroger Hospital and pronounced dead shortly thereafter.

Known as Fat Boy to friends and family, Anthony’s death came during a sharp rise in homicides across Chicago in 2012, a period marked by weekend and summer surges in gun violence and gang-related conflict that hit Back of the Yards especially hard. Many cases from that period, including his, remained unsolved, and authorities and community groups urged anyone with information to come forward.

Did anyone in the Back of the Yards neighborhood have information about that July 5, 2012 shooting?
