Kevin Smith was 31 when he was fatally shot in Detroit on the evening of April 2, 2016. He was sitting in his blue 1998 Jeep Cherokee at the intersection of Roselawn Street and the John C. Lodge Service Drive on the city’s west side when an unknown person shot him at about 9:20 p.m. His family said he had been on the phone before leaving home around 9 p.m., telling his live-in girlfriend he’d be back shortly to go to work with her.

Smith was a father of two — a 13-year-old daughter and a 10-year-old son — and had studied computer engineering at Wayne County Community College and Baker College after graduating from Weston Technical Academy. He was renovating a home for his children, planning a cleaning business, and performed in rap battles as Kontraband Kev.

If anyone knew Kevin, saw him that night, or has information about the shooting, please come forward.
