Anthony Rico, known as Tony T-Bone, was 45 when he was shot near the corner of Rural and New York streets in Indianapolis during the early morning hours of September 25, 2016. He had just finished a shift at the Rural Inn at Rural and Michigan streets and was walking the short block to his apartment when he was confronted and shot. His body was found the next morning behind a closed business near the scene, and the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department opened a homicide investigation.

Tony was remembered as intelligent and artistic, a self-taught linguist who spoke four or five languages and enjoyed drawing. A long-time Indianapolis resident, he was described as devoted to his family. His mother had been killed years earlier during a convenience store robbery, a case that resulted in arrests; Tony’s murder, by contrast, remained unsolved with no arrests publicly announced and no motive established. Family members, including his brother Tim Rico, have kept his memory visible in the neighborhood and asked for anyone with information to come forward.

Did anyone in the area around Rural, Michigan and New York streets on September 25, 2016 see or hear anything that could help the investigation?
