Teron William Flowers, a Black man from Detroit, was killed on December 15, 2021, after a confrontation that began at a liquor store near Saint Aubin and Larned. Witnesses say the dispute spilled into the neighborhood; Flowers and a longtime friend, Marquese Smith, tried to flee on foot. Investigators report the pursuit ended at the Martin Luther King Jr. Apartment complex, where multiple shooters were positioned and gunfire chased Flowers through the complex. He made it to the intersection just past the King Homes before collapsing, mortally wounded.

One account described a white Dodge Charger following them from the area of Chene and Larned, slowing as the threat became clear. Police and Crime Stoppers have repeatedly appealed for witnesses; a $4,000 reward was offered for information leading to an arrest. No publicly announced arrests or named suspects have been reported.

If anyone saw the shooting, the car, or who was at the complex that night, please come forward with information.
