On the morning of June 29, 2022, a domestic dispute at a mobile home park on Glenwood Road in Westland, Michigan, ended with the fatal shooting of 41-year-old Tabitha Cornwall. Responding officers found her inside her Jeep Grand Cherokee; she had been shot twice in the left side of her head and was pronounced dead at the scene. Reports say she was trying to escape an argument with her ex-boyfriend when the shooting occurred, and her mother stated Cornwall had been attempting to leave an abusive relationship.
The suspect, identified as 41-year-old Cary Anthony Taylor, fled the immediate area and barricaded himself in a nearby trailer. A standoff with law enforcement lasted more than eight hours before the Western Wayne County SWAT team negotiated his surrender; he was taken into custody without further incident. Taylor was charged with first-degree premeditated murder and a felony firearm violation and was arraigned in the 18th District Court, remanded without bond, with preliminary court events scheduled for July 2022.
If anyone has information about Cornwall, her movements that night, or the events at the mobile home park, please share what is known.
