STAMFORD — Police in Connecticut have identified a man who was shot and killed this week.

Stamford Police Capt. Richard Conklin tells The Stamford Advocate that 18-year-old Antonio Robinson was killed Thursday around 9 p.m. in the city’s West Side section.

Conklin declined to comment on the circumstances around the shooting. Robinson’s death is the first homicide in the city in more than a year.

Robinson was a standout football player at Stamford High School.

Lt. Tom Barcello says the department is interviewing witnesses and gathering video.
