On a summer evening in Detroit, 28-year-old Christopher Reed was sitting in a vehicle in the drive-thru at a Wendy’s on Grand River Avenue with his two young sons when a man approached and opened fire. Reed was shot multiple times and later died at a nearby hospital. A 9-year-old son was hit in the hand, treated for his wound, and released. The attacker then stole Reed’s car, cash, and a Rolex before fleeing.

Police identified and arrested 24-year-old Dezmen Faqua of Westland. He was charged with first-degree murder, felony murder, two counts of assault with intent to murder, armed robbery, carjacking, and multiple firearm offenses. At a bench trial, Faqua was found guilty of second-degree murder and the related charges. A judge sentenced him to 25 to 50 years in prison; during sentencing Reed’s young son addressed the court about the family’s loss and the children’s ongoing trauma.

Does anyone have information about the night at the Wendy’s or details that could shed more light on what happened?
