Devante Hogan, 23, was killed in an ambush-style shooting in Detroit’s Midtown on Sunday, January 8, 2017. He was shot at about 3:14 a.m. while walking to his car near 2nd Avenue and Canfield Street and was taken to Detroit Receiving Hospital, where he died from his injuries.

Family remembered Devante, known as Vante, as a fun-loving sportsman active in boxing and said he had no known enemies and was not involved in street life, making the apparent targeting of him especially troubling. Witnesses described the shooter wearing a green jacket who fled in a white four-door Chevrolet Impala SS.

Crime Stoppers of Michigan offered up to $2,500 for information, and Devante’s family publicly appealed for tips as they sought answers and closure. If anyone has information about that night or the vehicle and person seen fleeing, please come forward to investigators.
