In late January 2022, a shooting outside an Eastpointe, Michigan apartment complex left 37-year-old Dorian Mitchell dead and his girlfriend Christie Davis critically wounded; Davis later died from her injuries. The attack reportedly occurred on January 27 and investigators focused on a neighbor, 62-year-old Dennis Evans, after the shooting stemmed from a dispute between the neighbors.

Evans fled the state after the killings, prompting a multi-state manhunt that ended with his capture in Texas and extradition back to Michigan. A search of his apartment uncovered a mixture of fentanyl and heroin, and his record included two prior convictions for second-degree murder. In February 2024 a jury convicted Evans of two counts of first-degree premeditated murder in the deaths of Mitchell and Davis, along with multiple firearm and drug-related charges; the first-degree murder convictions carry mandatory life sentences without parole.

Did anyone in Eastpointe know Mitchell or Davis, or did neighbors see or hear anything the night of the shooting?
