A family dispute in Pontiac, Michigan, on the evening of Monday, February 7, 2022, ended with 32-year-old Antonio Scooby Lee Mayes shot and killed inside his mother’s apartment at the Phoenix Place Apartments on Woodward Avenue. Mayes, a Black male, was found by his sister the next day; she called the Oakland County Sheriff’s Office just after 12:40 p.m. on Tuesday to report the shooting and identified the alleged shooter as Stanford Clirteese Sharp Jr., the 18-year-old boyfriend of her 17-year-old daughter.

Deputies who entered the apartment found Mayes in a bedroom with multiple gunshot wounds to his torso. Investigators recovered spent shell casings on the floor just outside the bedroom. Authorities searched for Stanford Sharp and took him into custody the Wednesday after the shooting; he was charged with open murder and possession of a firearm in the commission of a felony and held without bond.

Are there witnesses or neighbors who remember hearing or seeing anything at the Phoenix Place Apartments the night of February 7?
