Troy Sowell-Benson, known as TJ, was 28 when he was shot to death on May 12, 2014, in Detroit. The attack occurred about 3:30 p.m. shortly after he parked at the Top of the Drive apartments at 12880 W. Outer Drive near Schoolcraft. Reports describe the shooting as a targeted attack; Troy was struck multiple times and later died. He had celebrated his 28th birthday ten days earlier and left behind two daughters.

No suspects have been publicly identified or arrested, and the case remains cold. Investigators are asking the public for any information that could break the case and bring answers to the family. If anyone knew Troy, witnessed the shooting, or has information about activity around Top of the Drive on May 12, 2014, please come forward.
