Stephen Henderson, 21, was killed in a December 1, 2015 shooting in Detroit’s east side outside the Hayes Troester Market on Hayes Street near Houston Whittier. He had reportedly just picked up three children from school and was sitting in a vehicle with a 13-year-old girl, a 14-year-old girl, and a 7-year-old boy when two gunmen approached and opened fire.

Henderson tried to flee, driving the car across the street before it crashed into a vacant building. He and the 13-year-old front-seat passenger were fatally shot. The 14-year-old was hospitalized in critical condition; the 7-year-old was listed in stable condition. The two children who had been riding on the hood were thrown from the vehicle during the crash.

A federal investigation under the Detroit One initiative identified the attackers as members of the 6 Mile Chedda Grove street gang. In 2016 federal indictments unsealed charged Edwin Lamont Mills and Carlo Dajuan Wilson with murder in aid of racketeering and related firearm offenses for the deaths of Henderson and the 13-year-old passenger.
