George Phillips, a 54-year-old Black man from Birmingham, Alabama, was found shot to death inside a Chevrolet pickup truck on July 11, 2010. His body was discovered about 7:30 a.m., slumped in the cab and bleeding from his head, in an alley behind a vacant apartment building at 4555 13th Avenue North. The death was recorded as Birmingham’s 21st homicide of 2010.

Detectives learned that several people saw Phillips riding around the neighborhood on Saturday, the day before his body was found, and a witness reported hearing two gunshots that Saturday night, though police could not determine who fired. The investigation continued without an arrest and went cold. In June 2014 Police Chief A.C. Roper publicly appealed for anonymous tips, asking anyone with information about Phillips’ final days, who he was going to see, or whether he had been in trouble to come forward.

Who knew George Phillips or was in that neighborhood on July 10 and can offer information to help solve this case?
