On December 9, 2011, police in Detroit, Michigan, responded to a call at a residence located at 12250 Rosemary Street. Upon arrival at the scene, law enforcement officers discovered the body of a 44-year-old African American male named Aundrea Garner. The discovery was made on the city's east side, in a residential neighborhood south of East McNichols Road and east of Dickerson Avenue.
The circumstances surrounding the death led investigators to classify the case as a homicide. Garner was subsequently recorded as number 326 on the city’s homicide victim list for that year, contributing to a period of significant violent crime statistics in the region. The address where he was found, a single-family home, became the center of the initial police investigation as detectives sought evidence to determine the specific events that led to his death.
Despite the investigation into the incident, public records and crime logs from the period do not indicate that any suspects were immediately apprehended or charged in connection with the killing. The case details were later archived in databases tracking unsolved homicides and violent crimes in Detroit, leaving the murder without a reported conviction in available accounts.
