On the morning of May 14, 2011, 29-year-old Elisia Degreaffenried was shot and killed on Detroit’s west side near Eight Mile Road and Livernois. She was about one month from giving birth. Around 5:30 a.m., Degreaffenried and her boyfriend, Tobias Anderson, had gone to meet someone at Santa Rosa and Chippewa when an unknown assailant ambushed them, robbed them and opened fire. Anderson was shot multiple times in the face and survived; Degreaffenried was fatally wounded, and her unborn child also died.

Family members issued public pleas for information and Crime Stoppers of Michigan offered a $2,500 reward, but the case has since gone cold. No arrests or publicly identified suspects have been announced. If anyone has information about that early-morning meeting or the attacker, please come forward and share what you know.
