Jaron Gist, 24, was fatally shot on the morning of July 31, 2012, at the Visible Change barber shop on Detroit’s west side near Joy and Dexter Roads. According to reports, the attack began outside the shop about 10:30 a.m.; Gist ran inside to escape but was pursued and shot there. Two other people were wounded: 59-year-old barber Stanley Kirby, critically shot in the chest and abdomen, and 47-year-old customer Gary Anderson, seriously injured by a gunshot to the hand.

Some witnesses said Gist was armed and returned fire. Gist, a business student at Henry Ford Community College, left behind children including one born months after his death. Detroit police have not announced any arrests and a Crime Stoppers reward was offered as family and community members appealed for tips.

Does anyone who lived or worked in that neighborhood at the time have information that could help this unsolved case?
