On the evening of January 27, 2016, 17-year-old Isaiah Devere Blue was fatally shot after stepping off a Rapid bus at 44th Street and South Division Avenue in Wyoming, Michigan. During the confrontation, 18-year-old Mitchell Steven Savickas brandished a rifle and fired multiple shots as Blue tried to flee; Blue ran across the street and then collapsed from his injuries.

All three alleged attackers were taken into custody after an investigation that included a four-hour standoff. Savickas and 16-year-old Daniel Benavides were charged as adults with felony murder, armed robbery and weapons offenses; 15-year-old Bryshaun Scott faced armed robbery counts in juvenile court and later testified against the others, after which his charges were dropped in March 2016. Savickas represented himself at trial, was convicted of felony murder and armed robbery, and received a mandatory life term; Benavides pleaded guilty to second-degree murder and was sentenced on August 3, 2016.

Does anyone have additional information about Isaiah’s life or that bus stop area that could help build a fuller picture of what happened?
