On May 7, 2016, 28-year-old African American Markus Smith was found dead at a home on 7338 Minock Street on Detroit’s west side. Detroit Police classified the death as a homicide and responded to the residence that Saturday, but authorities have not released specifics about a motive or the exact manner of death beyond calling it a murder.

The case remains unsolved with no charges filed, and family members and potential witnesses have been urged to provide information that could help explain what happened that May day.

Does anyone have information about Markus, his routines, or events on Minock Street around May 7, 2016?
