On August 23, 2014, officers responded to a home on the west side of Detroit at 8574 Prest Street, near Joy Road and Greenfield Road, and found 32-year-old Dwayne Weathers deceased. Initial reports described his death as a murder, though those first releases did not specify the exact cause of death.

Detroit Police canvassed the neighborhood and gathered evidence while detectives tried to establish a timeline, identify a motive, and locate people who had been with Weathers before the killing. Despite those efforts, leads were limited and no suspects were publicly named or arrested in the weeks that followed. The case remains an unsolved homicide and the file is being kept open.

If anyone has information about Dwayne Weathers, his movements on August 23, 2014, or the area around 8574 Prest Street, please contact the Detroit Police Department or an anonymous tip line.
