Yousef Al-Gabri, 43, was killed in Detroit in the early hours of January 14, 2021. Working as an Uber driver, he arrived at a pickup on Wisconsin Street at about 2:08 a.m. and was ambushed and shot multiple times. Police were dispatched at 2:32 a.m. after an SUV crashed into the front porch of a home on the same street. First responders found Al-Gabri inside the vehicle and he was taken to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead from multiple gunshot wounds.

Investigators say the attack was plotted: authorities allege a 25-year-old used a phone under a different name to summon the ride with the intent to harm the driver. The Detroit Police Department identified Carlous Skipper Jr. as the primary suspect; he was arrested on March 9, 2021, and charged by the Wayne County Prosecutor’s Office with first-degree murder and felony firearm. He was arraigned in 36th District Court and remanded to jail, with further proceedings set for later in March.

Did anyone in Detroit see that pickup request or the SUV on Wisconsin Street that night?
