Arnold Minor, 49, was killed in Flint, Michigan, in the early morning hours of August 2, 2010. He was found with two stab wounds on Saginaw Street near 12th Street and died shortly afterward. His death was one of several violent stabbings in the city that summer that left multiple people dead or seriously injured and alarmed the community.

Investigators later linked Elias Abuelazam to Minor’s killing. Minor’s DNA was found in blood inside Abuelazam’s SUV and on the suspect’s personal belongings, and survivors of other attacks identified Abuelazam as the man who approached them before stabbing them. Abuelazam was arrested in August 2010 while attempting to leave the country.

At trial in May 2012 the jury convicted Abuelazam of first-degree murder in Minor’s death after an eight-day trial; the jury deliberated about an hour. In June 2012 Abuelazam received life in prison without the possibility of parole. Does anyone have memories of the neighborhood or that night that could shed more light on Minor’s last known movements?
