Lester Taylor, 60, was shot to death at his Detroit home after answering the door in the early morning hours of a November day. Taylor was with his wife when someone rang the bell; after he opened the door he was struck by a single, fatal gunshot. Three people were reported to have been involved, and the two others allegedly attempted to force their way into the bedroom where his wife was staying. She escaped by jumping from a window and hiding behind bushes, from where she called for help.

Taylor, a father of thirteen, was taken to the hospital and died of his injuries. Investigators reportedly found marijuana plants inside the house, prompting speculation that the home invasion could be connected to the couple’s participation in Michigan’s medical marijuana program.

Does anyone have additional verified information about the people involved or about charges filed in this case?
