Gary Williams was 38 when he was shot and killed in Detroit in the early hours of March 31, 2018. He was in his vehicle on the city’s southwest side, on Michigan Avenue between Lonyo and Wyoming near Lawndale Street, after leaving a birthday gathering around 2 a.m. A black SUV pulled up, gunfire struck the van while he sat inside, and the SUV fled the scene.

Family members said he had been visiting from Arizona and called him Big Ral and Big Reel, describing him as devoted to his children. No arrests had been announced, and a reward of up to $2,500 was offered for information leading to an arrest.

If anyone knew Gary, saw activity on Michigan Avenue that night, or has information that could help, please share what is known with investigators.
