On the evening of February 25, 2021, 18-year-old Carlesa Ley’na Taylor was fatally shot while a passenger in a car on Schoolcraft Road on Detroit’s west side. The attack was a triple shooting that also killed 17-year-old Terrence Armour and left a third 17-year-old passenger in critical condition. Taylor had been a high school senior and scored 27 points for Ecorse High School just hours before the shooting, a detail teammates and the community recalled while mourning her loss.

Detroit police identified a gray or black Dodge Durango as connected to the incident and developed enough evidence to name a suspect; a warrant was sent to the Wayne County Prosecutor’s Office in April 2021 for a charging decision. By September 2021 the victims’ families publicly criticized delays in filing formal charges, while the prosecutor’s office said the warrant was under review and noted staffing shortages affecting its caseload.

Who in the community has information about the vehicle or the events on Schoolcraft Road that night?
