Jazzy Dudley, a 21-year-old man, was fatally shot in Detroit, Michigan on Thursday, November 3, 2016. The incident took place around 2 a.m. near the 8600 block of Burt Road on the city's west side.
On the night of his death, Dudley had just left a gas station after buying a phone charger when an unknown assailant appeared from between two houses and shot him. The gunman fled the scene immediately after the attack.
Dudley's sister received a call on that Thursday informing her that her brother may have been shot, and upon arriving at the location, she found police had secured the area where his body was discovered.
At the time of his death, Jazzy Dudley was a graduate of the Academy for Business Technology of Melvindale, where he had been a member of the basketball team. He was employed at Forge Industrial in Livonia and was also an active member of his church, Detroit World Outreach, where he served as a volunteer audio assistant.
In the wake of the shooting, a reward of up to $2,500 was offered for information that could lead to an arrest and conviction in the case. Despite the reward and police investigation, no arrests have been publicly announced, and no suspects have been identified in connection with the murder. The case remains unsolved.
