David Gergel, 45, was shot and killed in southwest Detroit on September 6, 2015. He was driving near Dix and Woodmere that Sunday afternoon to collect payment for a paint job when a newer-model black four-door Cadillac stopped in the street. As Gergel went around the stopped car, an occupant of the Cadillac opened fire. A single bullet entered through the driver’s seat and struck Gergel in the back.

Despite his wound, Gergel managed to drive a few blocks to a nearby store where the owner called emergency services. He was taken to Detroit Receiving Hospital and pronounced dead on arrival. Authorities describe the incident as a road rage shooting; surveillance footage captured images of the black Cadillac. No arrests have been announced and the homicide remains open, with a cash reward offered for information.

If anyone has information about the Cadillac, its occupants, or the shooting, please come forward to assist the investigation.
