On the evening of April 14, 2013, Tony Baxter, 27, was found inside a vehicle on the 2300 block of Sturtevant in Detroit. Officers discovered he had been shot multiple times; he was pronounced dead at the scene at about 8:50 p.m., and his death was added to the city’s homicide total for the year.

Initial information was scarce. A blog tracking Detroit homicides listed Baxter’s death and noted he was found in a vehicle; a commenter identifying themselves as his cousin confirmed the identity and said that as of April 18, 2013, there were no suspects. As of March 2024 the investigation had produced no arrests and the case is cold, leaving the family without closure.

Does anyone who knew Tony or was in that Detroit neighborhood on April 14, 2013 have information that could help reopen leads?
