Just after 11 p.m. on March 29, what should have been a normal Sunday evening turned into heartbreak for the Northwood neighborhood when Antoine Kennedy was struck by gunfire in a residential area. Neighbors found him bleeding and rushed him to the hospital, but despite their efforts, Antoine passed away a few hours later, leaving friends and family reeling from the sudden loss.
Police arrived promptly after reports of shots fired, but as of now, no suspects have been named and the motive remains unknown. Detectives are asking anyone with information—even the smallest detail—to come forward, hoping to piece together the circumstances that ended Antoine’s life so abruptly.
Those who knew Antoine remember a man who lit up a room with a smile that could make anyone feel seen. Always ready to lend a hand, share a laugh, or turn a simple day into a memorable one with music or good company, he left a mark on everyone around him. His absence is felt deeply, leaving loved ones clinging to memories of his generosity, warmth, and energy.
