On September 26, 2015, 19-year-old Patrice Anderson was shot in the chest at the intersection of Shelf Font and Cherry in Detroit while driving with her boyfriend. A dark-colored car pulled up, an occupant opened fire without warning, and Patrice was taken to a nearby hospital where she died shortly after arrival.

Patrice was a daughter and the mother of a young son. Her family described her as vibrant and ambitious; she worked two jobs and hoped to become an attorney. Investigators were uncertain about the motive, considered mistaken identity, and did not know whether Patrice or her boyfriend was the intended target. Detectives believed others were in the shooter’s vehicle and might have witnessed the attack.

No arrests had been announced, and the case had gone cold. Does anyone who was in that area that night or who knew Patrice have information that could help bring answers to her family?
