On the morning of February 6, 2017, two men were found shot to death on a street near Newburgh and Michigan Avenue in Westland, Michigan. Victims were 35-year-old Howard Wick of Westland and 19-year-old Jordan Baker of Wayne; their bodies were discovered separated by a significant distance. Investigators reported evidence at the scene, including a bag of drugs, that led them to treat the killings as drug-related rather than random.

Within a day, three people were arrested: Dominik Charleston, 19, of Taylor; Kobi Taylor, 19, who was homeless; and Amber Marie Tackett, 17, of Taylor. The Wayne County Prosecutor charged Charleston with two counts of first-degree premeditated murder, two counts of felony murder, two counts of armed robbery and felony firearm offenses. Taylor and Tackett each faced two counts of felony murder and two counts of armed robbery; Taylor also faced felony firearm charges. All three were arraigned in 18th District Court and remanded without bond.

Did anyone in the area see activity around Newburgh and Michigan Avenue that morning or know more about the victims’ movements before the shootings?
