In the early hours of a Sunday in February 2017, the body of 30-year-old Antonio Roberts, an African-American male, was discovered in a grim scene under the Briley Parkway bridge in Nashville, Tennessee. The discovery, made on February 5th, launched a homicide investigation by the Metro Nashville Police who determined that Roberts had likely been shot before his body was left at the location.
The circumstances surrounding his death pointed to a violent end, with authorities believing he
was shot elsewhere and then disposed of under the bridge. Despite the efforts of law enforcement, the case grew cold. The identity of the person or persons responsible for Roberts' death remains a mystery, and a motive for the killing has never been publicly established.
In the years that have followed, there have been no arrests announced in connection with the murder of Antonio Roberts. The investigation into his death is still considered open, but without suspects or significant new leads, it has become one of Nashville's unsolved homicides. Authorities have previously sought assistance from the public, hoping that someone might come forward with information that could bring clarity to the case and provide answers for Roberts' family.
