On Saturday, February 8, 2014, 63-year-old Athir Putres was killed by a gunshot to the head while working as a clerk at the Clark gas station at the corner of Rochester and South Boulevard roads in Troy, Michigan. Two shots were fired inside the station between about 1:20 p.m. and 1:30 p.m.; the shooting was discovered when two teenagers entered and found Putres behind the counter.

Troy police reviewed surveillance from the gas station and nearby businesses and developed a composite sketch from witness cooperation. The suspect was described as a Black male, about 40 to 50 years old, roughly 5 feet 9 inches tall, medium build, with a mustache, and seen at the rear of the station wearing a light gray, mid-thigh-length winter parka. Despite public tips, no arrest has been announced and the case has gone cold.

Putres was a father of three. Does anyone who was near Rochester and South Boulevard on the afternoon of February 8, 2014, remember seeing a man matching that description or anything else that could help this investigation?
