Two other incidents occurred in Greektown on Saturday and Sunday, leaving another 19-year-old dead and two others injured.

Due to the large number of witnesses in both incidents, Crime Stoppers is hoping that someone has information and will come forward anonymously.

"A bystander is anyone who sees a crime or situation that could cause harm to someone else. An active bystander is someone who does something about it," said John Broad, CSM President. "We are asking those who know anything about that night to be active, stay anonymous and to speak up. Even the smallest detail could lead police to the shooter."

Crime Stoppers is offering a cash reward of up to $2,500 per incident for information that leads to an arrest.

The Crime Stoppers program is completely anonymous; Tipsters are never asked for personal information, and not even Crime Stoppers knows the identification of a Tipster. 

To submit a tip to Crime Stoppers on any felony crime, call 1-800-SPEAK-UP, visit the website at: www.1800speakup.org or text CSM and your tip information to 274637 (CRIMES).
