'Unity Walk' in memory of Paige Stalker and Christina Samuels

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 P
aige 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.
