In the summer of 2022 a domestic tragedy in Harper Woods, Michigan left three people dead, including 42-year-old Flossie Nicole Bray. On the evening of July 10, police responded to a Kenosha Street home after a 911 call from a woman who said she was being held hostage. The call ended with screams, and officers encountered a seven-hour standoff with Bray’s 23-year-old son barricaded inside.

Neighbors told investigators the son dropped his one-year-old child from a window onto the grass while the house was burning; the child was recovered and taken to a hospital. Inside the home, authorities found that Flossie Bray had been stabbed multiple times in the back with a butcher knife. Her stepfather, 70-year-old Robert Bray Jr., and her son’s girlfriend, 22-year-old Zlayiah Frazier, had suffered fatal blunt force trauma. The standoff involved fire set inside the residence and shots fired at police before the barricaded suspect was taken into custody.

Two days earlier the same suspect had been released on bond after being charged in a violent June 2 attack on Frazier that allegedly involved strangulation, burning and pouring gasoline. Does anyone have information about the days leading up to July 10 or knew the family?
