Do you know who murdered Anthony Stidam? On a Saturday night in Washington, D.C., the life of Anthony Bruce Stidam, a male, was cut short by gunfire. The incident occurred on September 14, 1996, at approximately 10:35 p.m. in the 4100 block of Martin Luther King, Jr. Avenue, SW. The shooting left him dead at the scene, marking the start of a long and so far unresolved homicide investigation.
In the years that have passed since that fatal evening, the case of Anthony Stidam's death has remained open.
The Metropolitan Police Department has continued to seek assistance from the public in gathering information that might lead to a breakthrough in the investigation. Despite their efforts, no suspects have been publicly identified or arrested in connection with the killing. The circumstances surrounding the shooting and a motive have not been released to the public, leaving a void in the narrative of what happened that night.
The case is now considered a cold case, one of many unsolved homicides in the nation's capital. To encourage potential witnesses to come forward, the police department has offered a substantial reward for any information that leads to the arrest and conviction of the person or persons responsible for Anthony Stidam's death. The official records from the Metropolitan Police Department confirm the details of the incident and the ongoing appeal for public assistance, but provide no further insight into the personal life of the victim, such as his age at the time of his death.
