Robert Bob Roy Sr., 59, was struck by gunfire on April 1, 2020, near North Palmer Street and East Chambers Street in Milwaukee’s Harambee neighborhood and later died at a hospital from a gunshot wound to the head. Police recovered multiple 9mm casings at the scene after a street fight in which bystanders gathered and tempers flared. Surveillance from a nearby store and cellphone footage captured the brawl breaking up, a voice yelling get the gun, and a man pointing a handgun before shots rang out; Roy—identified in court records as the grandfather of one of the men involved—collapsed moments later.

Detectives identified the shooter as Antwon G. Matthews. According to the criminal complaint and trial evidence, witnesses and video showed Matthews with a handgun that had an extended magazine, raising and firing once toward the north as the group dispersed; additional shots followed as the person filming fled, and someone on the recording exclaimed that he shot an innocent man. Matthews was arrested and charged two weeks after the shooting, and a jury later found him guilty. Roy’s memorial page records the date and city where he was lost to gun violence.

Did anyone in the Harambee neighborhood see the fight or the shooting that morning and can provide more detail?
