On the evening of January 26, 2021, 23-year-old Chinyelu Humphrey was fatally shot in Highland Park, Michigan. The shooting occurred shortly after 7:30 p.m. while Humphrey sat alone in his vehicle at Avalon Village, a community project founded by his mother. Two men approached the car and opened fire; Humphrey was hit multiple times, managed to get to a friend’s house and call 911, but later died of his wounds.

Humphrey’s mother, community leader Shamayim Harris, known as Mama Shu, witnessed the aftermath and has said she saw the men running from the scene. The case was initially handled by the Highland Park Police Department and later transferred to the Wayne County Prosecutor’s Office. Despite an eyewitness account and a public campaign that included a billboard, no arrests have been made and the investigation has shown little movement. Crime Stoppers of Michigan is offering a cash reward for information leading to an arrest.

Did anyone in Highland Park see or hear anything that night, or have information about Avalon Village or the two men described fleeing the scene?
