On June 26, 2011, Detroit police and fire personnel responded to the 19000 block of Westmoreland near 7 Mile Road and found the bodies of two young men, 26-year-old Martez Norwood and 24-year-old Charles W. Reid. Both had been shot and their bodies were burned to the point of being unrecognizable.

The deaths were described as violent and shocking to family and the community. Despite an investigation by the Detroit Police Department, no suspects or persons of interest have been officially identified and the case later grew cold. Family members and the community have held events to honor Norwood and Reid and to keep attention on gun violence.

What information might help move this case forward for the families and investigators?
