Patrick Hopson Jr. was 20 when he was found shot to death inside a parked SUV in Gary, Indiana on the evening of November 21, 2014. A graduate of West Side High School and a sophomore at Alabama A&M College, he worked at a Johnson & Johnson warehouse and was described as a cherished son, brother, and grandson.

Officers responded after neighbors in the Glen Park area reported gunfire and discovered Patrick and another 20-year-old man, Avery Flynn, both shot in the front seats of the vehicle on Massachusetts Street. Investigators reported no weapons or drugs were recovered from the SUV; the neighborhood was known to police for drug-related activity. The Gary Police Department’s Violent Crimes Unit asked the public for help.

The double homicide remains unsolved and no arrests or suspects have been publicly identified. Can anyone with information about that night or about activities in the Glen Park area help investigators bring answers to the families?
