Collin Mitchell, 23, was shot and killed outside his LakeView Apartments residence on Elkerton Avenue in Kalamazoo Township, Michigan in the early hours of September 21, 2021. Emergency responders arrived about 12:20 a.m. and found Mitchell on the ground; he was pronounced dead at the scene from a single gunshot wound.

Investigators focused on 24-year-old Jayshaun Bishop as a suspect. Police say the fatal confrontation grew out of Bishop’s belief that Mitchell had stolen his dog. Bishop reportedly denied involvement to officers but allegedly admitted to two other people that he had shot Mitchell.

Bishop was later arrested and charged with second-degree murder and felony firearm. In September 2023 he pleaded guilty to both counts and received a prison term of 23 to 50 years for the murder plus a consecutive two-year sentence for the firearm charge.
