Devon Gilbert was 20 when he was fatally shot at about 3:20 p.m. on September 14, 2014, at a Marathon gas station on Detroit’s northwest side. Gilbert, who had recently bought his first home and worked in construction, was inside the station when he recognized a man he said had robbed him weeks earlier. He waited for the man to leave; when the man did not, Gilbert exited the building. Shortly afterward shots were fired and Gilbert was struck. He was taken to Sinai-Grace Hospital and died about 20 minutes later.

Witnesses described the shooter as a backseat passenger in a dark-colored, four-door Chevrolet Impala. Crime Stoppers of Michigan offered up to a $2,500 reward for information leading to an arrest, and Gilbert’s family publicly pleaded for help. No arrests have been publicly announced and the shooting remains unresolved.

If anyone has information about that afternoon at the Marathon station or about the described vehicle, please share what is known.
