Michael Denzel Elix, 22, was shot and killed on April 25, 2013, in his Lawton, Oklahoma, apartment in what investigators believe was a case of mistaken identity. He had moved to Lawton from Altus two months earlier, was living with two friends, and worked at a local restaurant. Authorities found him on the floor just inside his open doorway with a gunshot wound to the head after a neighbor called 911; police say two suspects knocked and shot him as soon as he answered.

Witnesses reported seeing a black, two-door Honda hatchback in the complex and three white males exiting the vehicle shortly before shots were heard. No arrests have been announced and the case remains cold; the Lawton Police Department and the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation continue to seek tips. Michael, also known as Michael Elix Carter, was born in Dallas, moved with his family to Altus, graduated high school in 2009, and was remembered as active in school life and a fan of the University of Oklahoma and the New York Knicks.

Does anyone who lived near that apartment complex in April 2013 recall the Honda or the men seen that night?
