DETROIT – Dozens of friends and students gathered Monday night outside Malcolm X Academy in Detroit to remember a teacher who was killed over the weekend.
Marcus Davis was shot during a domestic incident at a home on the city's west side. The 36-year-old was a math instructional specialist for Detroit Public Schools.
Davis's fraternity brothers said he was very knowledgeable, and that's what they'll remember the most about him.
"He's probably one of the smartest people I know," said a friend.
Police said Davis was shot by his father-in-law, who claims he fired in self-defense. The father-in-law was taken into custody. It's not clear if he will face charges.
