Jalon Canty was 18 when he was found shot to death inside a friend’s home on Anglin Street on Detroit’s east side on September 5, 2012, one day before his 19th birthday. Family members described him as a new father and a promising young man focused on family and not involved in trouble.

Neighbors reported hearing gunshots around 10 p.m. and called 911, but police did not arrive until about midnight; by then Canty had died of his injuries. The Detroit Police Department launched a homicide investigation; detectives processed the scene and questioned at least one person, but officials said they had no suspects at that time.

No arrests or named suspects have been publicly announced and the case is unsolved. Anyone who knew Jalon, was in the area that night, or has information is urged to contact the Detroit Police Department.
