Lewis Putrus, 77, was shot and killed after leaving D & D Liquor Land on Schoolcraft in Detroit on September 21, 2019. He had been exiting the store, which was owned by his brother, after 11 p.m. when two armed men ambushed, robbed and shot him. He was a grandfather of ten.

Surveillance cameras in the liquor store parking lot recorded the attack. Video shows two Black male suspects, both armed with handguns. One wore a light-colored baseball hat with a white brim, a dark hooded jacket with light-colored stripes on the arms and red and black gym shoes. The other wore a knee-length black hooded jacket and black boots. The Midwest Independent Retailers Foundation offered a $10,000 reward for information leading to arrest and conviction.

Did anyone in the area see these men that night or have information about the shooting?
