On January 24, 2019, three-year-old Christian Miller was riding in his godmother’s car in Detroit on the way to see Sesame Street Live when a bullet struck him while he sat secured in his car seat on the Southfield Freeway. He was taken to a nearby hospital and died the next day, January 25, 2019.

The driver of that vehicle, identified as Derrick Durham, became enraged. A passenger, Jena Ewais, testified she saw Durham with a gun and heard a loud bang; Strickland heard her window break and later found a bullet hole in Christian’s car seat.

Durham surrendered to Michigan State Police and was charged with open murder and related felonies; Ewais was granted immunity in exchange for her testimony. Christian, described as a lively child who loved dancing and ate chicken nuggets and pizza, left a grieving family and community.

Did anyone in Detroit see the vehicles involved that night or have information about the road incident?
