Jose Manuel De Jesus Flores, 22, was fatally shot on the evening of July 30, 2023, while walking on the 700 block of East Kalamazoo Street in Lansing, Michigan. The killing was described in court as a shooting for sport, underscoring the apparent randomness of the attack. Flores was a father of two and did not speak English.

Police say the investigation included a high-speed, 25-minute chase before officers apprehended suspects. Authorities identified two defendants, 16-year-old Aiden Wilson and 18-year-old Bradli Stoutmiles. Prosecutors charged Wilson as an adult and both faced multiple counts including open murder, assault with intent to murder, receiving and concealing a stolen vehicle, third-degree fleeing and eluding, and several weapons counts.

Both men were convicted of first-degree murder at trial in November 2024. Sentencing followed, with Aiden Wilson receiving 35 to 70 years (effectively a minimum of 37 years due to consecutive terms) and Bradli Stoutmiles receiving 27 to 60 years. If anyone knew Jose Flores or has information about what happened that night, please come forward.
