Christina Samuel was 22 when she was shot and killed on December 25, 2014, in Detroit. A recent Indiana Tech criminal justice graduate who planned to attend law school and worked with troubled youth, she was visiting family for the holidays and sat in a parked car on Carlisle Street near Gratiot Avenue and 8 Mile Road with a 24-year-old male friend.

A dark-colored Lincoln pulled up alongside their vehicle and two men exited, opening fire. Christina was fatally wounded; her friend was critically injured and left in a coma. Surveillance from a nearby home captured a speeding car believed to be the suspect vehicle blowing through a stop sign shortly after the shooting. No arrests have been announced and the shooters remain unidentified.

If anyone has information about the dark-colored Lincoln or the two men involved, please come forward to help Christina’s family find justice.
