In the early morning hours of December 28, 2014, William Lamont Fultz, a 49-year-old male, was tragically killed in his home on the west side of Detroit, Michigan. The incident unfolded at approximately 4:30 a.m. when two armed men forcibly entered his residence. The motive for the home invasion was determined to be robbery. During the commission of the crime, Fultz was shot by the intruders.
A father of fourteen children, his violent death marked another grim statistic in a city that
was, at the time, experiencing a notable decrease in homicides. While Detroit had recorded its lowest number of homicides in 47 years in 2014, the murder of William Lamont Fultz underscored the persistent issue of violent crime within the community. The Detroit Police Department handled the investigation into the homicide. However, there is no publicly available information regarding any arrests made in connection to the murder, nor have any suspects been publicly identified. The case remains without a public resolution, and details regarding any potential charges, trials, or convictions are unknown.
