On Halloween night 2021, 39-year-old Frederick Lamar Betty, known as Gutta Gutta, was shot outside the Lions Food Market on Auburn Avenue in Pontiac, Michigan. According to reports, Betty was leaving the store when Troy Dwayne Santos, then 29, approached; after Betty glanced back, Santos opened fire and struck him in the back. Betty died of his injuries the next day, November 1, 2021. A second man was also wounded in the shooting.

Authorities said Santos fled the scene and a manhunt involving the Oakland County Sheriff’s Office and the U.S. Marshals followed. Investigators described Santos as armed and dangerous and offered a $2,000 reward for information leading to his capture. Motive was not immediately clear, and some reports indicated the two men may have been acquainted.
