A social media dispute in Detroit ended in gunfire that killed 26-year-old Jevon Javon Parker on a Thursday night. Parker, a landscaping worker and father of a nine-month-old daughter, was with four others outside his cousin’s home on Nashville Street near Gunston Avenue when a dark-colored Oldsmobile Alero pulled up and an occupant opened fire. Investigators believe the intended target had left moments earlier; the family says they are certain Parker was not the target and call his death a mistaken identity.

A week later grief turned to further violence during Parker’s visitation at Cantrell Funeral Home on Mack Avenue. Two or three people entered the viewing; multiple weapons were reported and a 24-year-old man attending the service was shot and killed. Witnesses described the suspects fleeing in an older red Honda or Toyota. No arrests, suspect identifications, or charges have been reported in either killing.

Family members have publicly urged anyone with information to come forward. Does anyone have information about the shootings or saw the vehicles involved?
