In the late hours of a Friday night in Louisville, Kentucky, on August 26, 2016, a burst of violence tragically cut short the life of Anthony T. Coleman. An African-American male of 37 years, he was fatally wounded in a double shooting that unfolded on M Street. The specific details of what led to the incident remain shrouded in mystery, leaving a community to grapple with the sudden and violent loss.
In the aftermath, the Louisville Metro Police Department launched a homicide
investigation into the death of Coleman. Despite their efforts, the case has remained unsolved, with no suspects publicly identified or apprehended. The silence surrounding the motives for the shooting and the identity of the perpetrator or perpetrators has left a painful void for those who knew and loved Anthony.
Left to cherish his memory are his children, a son named Anthony J. Coleman and a daughter, Aniyah J. Brown, as well as a grandson, Jaquez Coleman. He is also survived by his siblings, Patrick and Patricia Coleman, and his grandmother, Margaret Stoutmire. His lifelong companion, Shaconda Brown, along with a host of other family members and friends, continue to mourn a life taken too soon, still awaiting answers and the justice that has so far remained elusive.
