Antonio "Tony" Larry died Tuesday of injuries suffered in a shooting a week earlier in the Chicago Lawn neighborhood on the Southwest Side.
Officers responded to a shooting at 1:12 p.m. Wednesday, May 24, at a home in the 6000 block of South Fairfield, according to Chicago Police and the Cook County medical examiner’s office.
Inside the home, they found the 37-year-old Larry shot multiple times.
Larry, who lived on the same block as the shooting, was taken to Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn, where he was pronounced dead at 8:07 p.m. Tuesday, authorities said.
A GoFundMe page has been set up to help with funeral expenses.
The author of the page wrote of Larry: "Tony was amazing friend and brother and son to his family friends and mother. He was not perfect but to his family he was their strength. ... He never said no when someone needed help he truly was a rock. All of our lives he taught us so much about what family truly meant and how important it was to him..."
