Just after midnight on February 14, 2025, gunfire in a west Detroit home at Coyle and Keeler streets left two people dead. Police found 39-year-old Edward Clark III and 21-year-old LaTriece Galloway fatally shot inside the residence. Edward, born May 14, 1985, was remembered by his father as a bright man who loved video games and dearly cherished his daughter.

Authorities arrested 30-year-old Keith Arrington, who lived in the same house and was related to Clark as his cousin. Police say the confrontation began as an argument over a cell phone and that Arrington used a shotgun to kill both victims. Arrington was charged with two counts of first-degree murder, felon in possession of a firearm and additional weapons-related charges; bond was remanded and legal proceedings were pending.

Clark’s parents told reporters Arrington had a history of mental health issues and sometimes missed medication, a detail they believe bears on what happened. Did anyone in the neighborhood see or hear anything that night, or know more about the relationships among those who lived in that house?
