Who killed this convenience store owner
Fawzi Abu-Hamdan, a 53-year-old grocer from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, was fatally shot during a robbery at his grocery store on December 28, 2012. The incident occurred on Milwaukee's west side, where Abu-Hamdan had been operating his business.

The case remained unsolved for several years, but in 2021, charges were finally filed in connection with his murder. The investigation, which had been ongoing for nearly eight years, led to the identification of a suspect.

The suspect, who was charged with homicide, was linked to the crime through evidence gathered during the lengthy investigation. According to reports, Milwaukee police had been working diligently to solve the case, and the release of new video evidence played a significant role in advancing the investigation.

If the suspect is found guilty, they could face a significant prison sentence, potentially up to 71 years. The charges marked a significant development in a cold case that had left the community seeking justice for the slain store owner.
