On July 13, 2024, at about 4:45 p.m. police responded to a shooting at the intersection of Cardoni and Robinwood streets in Detroit and found 23-year-old Tavita Hunter on the grass with a gunshot wound to her back. The Detroit Fire Department responded but Hunter was pronounced dead at the scene.

Investigators identified 17-year-old Brandon Butler of Farmington Hills as a suspect. Authorities say an altercation between Butler and Hunter escalated, and Butler produced a handgun and fired, then fled. Butler was arrested and charged as an adult with first-degree murder and felony firearm; he was arraigned in 36th District Court on a $200,000 cash/surety bond with a GPS tether and house arrest. A probable cause conference was set for August 13, 2024, and a preliminary examination for August 19, 2024.
