On July 31, 2015, 20-year-old Tre Quan Tre D. Jones was killed in a drive-by shooting on Flint’s north side. He was taken to Hurley Medical Center in critical condition and later died. Investigators determined he was not the intended target and was an innocent bystander.

Born in Flint on March 8, 1995, Tre Quan was a father of two boys, Kyree and Kylan. He was active in his church, Vessel of God Ministry, sang in a teenage gospel group, and played with the Youth Flint Neighborhood drum line. He was enrolled in Metro Flint Youth Build to earn a GED and a building construction certification and worked through Qualified Staffing, most recently at Premier Packaging in Grand Blanc.

His funeral was held August 8, 2015, at Sheldon T. Banks Funeral Chapel. Despite investigations by the Flint Police Department and Michigan State Police, no significant arrests or publicly identified suspects have been reported and the case grew cold. If anyone knew Tre Quan or has information about the shooting, please come forward.
