James Carter, a 54-year-old Air Force veteran, was shot to death in the early morning hours of April 14, 2017, at the corner of John R and Edgevale in Detroit. He had been in the area to visit a friend when, according to investigators, a robbery turned violent; a struggle followed and Carter was shot in the chest. A passerby found his body and alerted authorities.

Police have identified suspects at various points and have considered that the killer may once have lived in the neighborhood, but a lack of new leads has stalled the investigation. Carter’s family describe him as a strong, no-nonsense man devoted to his family and have publicly pleaded for anyone with information to come forward.

If anyone was in that part of Detroit on April 14, 2017, or knew someone connected to John R and Edgevale at that time, please share what you know with investigators.
