Alfred Skinner, a 38-year-old African-American man, was killed by gunfire inside a Detroit residence on Anglin Street shortly before 10:00 p.m. on Friday, October 12, 2012. The shooting occurred after an unknown assailant knocked, was admitted, and then opened fire; two other people in the house—a 20-year-old man and a 24-year-old woman—were seriously and critically wounded.

Police treated the attack as targeted and suggested it may have been retaliation for a separate altercation on the same block weeks earlier. Investigators initially pursued leads and a reward was offered, but witnesses were reluctant to come forward and the suspect’s identity remains unknown. The case remains an unsolved homicide and Skinner’s family continues to seek answers.

If anyone has information about that night on Anglin Street or knew Alfred Skinner, please share what you know with Detroit police.
