That is why Crime Stoppers of Flint and Genesee County continues circulating its Unsolved Cold Cases Deck throughout Michigan jails, prisons, and the broader community.

According to MLive, just after midnight on September 8, 2020, officers in Flint responded to the 300 block of Stockdale Street, between Euclid and Mason, for reports of a shooting.

Inside the home, police found 28-year-old Ridge Williams, who lived at the residence, dead from multiple gunshot wounds. Investigators said a witness reported the shooting may have occurred during a suspected robbery. What began as a call in the middle of the night became another family left without answers. Years later, the case remains unsolved, but not forgotten.
