On the afternoon of November 28, 2015, 34-year-old Anthony Tony Vance was shot while driving on Milwaukee’s north side near N. Sherman Boulevard and W. Bernhard Place. Around 1:30 p.m., another vehicle pulled alongside his and multiple shots were fired into Vance’s car, causing it to strike a light pole. Emergency crews responded, but Vance died at the scene.

Family and friends remembered Vance as someone working to turn his life around after a recent jail release and focused on his family. The Milwaukee Police Department investigated the daylight attack, but no immediate arrests were announced and the killing remained unsolved. Investigators later linked the firearm used in Vance’s murder to two other homicides within a ten-day span and to a black Infinity involved in a shootout on I-43; two people were charged in the freeway shootout but not with the murders.

Anyone with information about Vance, the vehicles involved, or the shooting is asked to come forward.
