LaQuavis Quay Cooper, 19, was found fatally shot near a playground in Fordney Park on Saginaw’s west side on a Sunday morning in October 2015. A passerby discovered his body; he had been shot. Cooper, a Saginaw native who had recently moved to Grand Rapids, was a father to a one-year-old son. He attended Arthur Hill High School and worked for NBHX Trim U.S.A., and enjoyed music, video games, and painting cars.

Investigators say the killing stemmed from a planned robbery after Cooper cashed a check. Charles Edward Wilson Jr. and Jason Wrenn organized the scheme and enlisted Jamal Reid to drive them from Grand Rapids to Saginaw. On October 18, 2015, Reid dropped Cooper and Wrenn off near Cooper’s home; Wrenn then shot Cooper twice in the head in the nearby park and took his money. Reid later pleaded in exchange for testifying against Wilson and Wrenn; Wilson was convicted of felony murder, armed robbery, conspiracy to commit armed robbery, and possession of a firearm during a felony, and received a prison term for the murder conviction.

Does anyone with ties to Saginaw or Fordney Park remember seeing Cooper or the vehicle involved around October 18, 2015?
