Deevon Cornea Brown, 36, was shot in Pontiac, Michigan, in the early morning of November 15, 2025. Neighbors on the 200 block of Osmun Street reported gunfire just after 6 a.m.; one resident on the 80 block of Wall Street later found a bullet hole through their front door. Deputies arriving on Osmun Street located Brown wounded and he was taken to a hospital, where he died of his injuries. Investigators later found his body under the deck of a nearby house.

Oakland County investigators reviewed nearby video and Flock license plate reader data as part of the search for a suspect. The Oakland County Sheriff’s Office Fugitive Apprehension Team arrested 41-year-old Anthony Louis Ward in Farmington Hills later that day. Ward was charged with Second Degree Murder, being a prohibited person in possession of a firearm, and two counts of felony firearm, and was ordered held without bond at arraignment.
