Anthony Blackman, 29, a Black male, was found on the night of December 17, 2007, at 10:25 p.m., lying on the sidewalk outside 2433 West Auer Street in Milwaukee. He had been shot multiple times and died where he fell, the quiet of a winter Monday broken by gunfire that left no immediate answers, only the hard geometry of a crime scene under streetlights.
Detectives treated the killing as an open case and sought the public's help, a sign that no arrest had been made and no suspect publicly identified. Years later, his name still appears in cold-case listings connected to that date and location, underscoring that investigators have not announced any charges in his death.
