Antonio Lopez Nino, 44, was killed at his Fort Wayne business, The Smoke House Tobacco Outlet on South Lafayette Street, on a Monday morning in April 2014. Police responded to a call and found Nino in critical condition; surveillance footage later showed the final moments inside the shop.

Tips from the public, including from members of the suspect’s family, led investigators to Jamel C. Coleman, then about 22 or 23. Court records say Coleman entered the shop intending to rob Nino; a struggle followed and Coleman used Nino’s own gun to shoot him.

Coleman later pleaded guilty to murder and robbery and was sentenced to 60 years in prison in February 2015. If anyone remembers Antonio, his shop, or events around that April morning, please share what you know.
