and

DETROIT
(AP) —
The
family
of a
16-year-old
suburban
girl
fatally
shot in
Detroit
is
helping
to
organize
a
"Community
Unity
Walk"
this
spring.
The
Detroit
Free
Press
reports
the
event is
May 2
along
Mack
Avenue,
a border
between
Detroit
and the
upscale
Grosse
Pointe
communities.
Police
say Paige
Stalker
was in a
parked
car Dec.
22 with
friends
on
Detroit's
east
side
when a
man
opened
fire,
killing
the
Grosse
Pointe
Farms
teen.
Her
family
has
joined
with
others
dealing
with
similar
tragedies,
going
door-to-door
to help
solve
cases.
Jennifer
Stalker
says she
and her
family
feel
"empowered"
after
her
daughter's
killing.
The
route
was
selected
after
the
Stalker
family
bonded
with the
Detroit
family
of Chris
Samuel,
whose
22-year-old
daughter
Christina
Samuel
was
killed
around
the same
time.
