New to this thread. Reminds me of a dateline or 48 hours I watched where a young guy was basically carjacked and beat behind a quizznos. I thought it was also in Detroit but could be wrong. He was ultimately found deceased in an abandoned home. I really think I remember this being in Detroit and how local Le were trying to rid the city of the broke down area and abandoned homes. This my opinion because the case I'm thinking of may not have been Detroit. Though I know there are abandoned homes in Det.
I remember this story well. Yes, it did take place in Detroit and his name was Matt. Such a sweet guy who decided to surprise his sick girlfriend with lunch from Quiznos to make her feel better. I can still remember his poor mom saying "My poor Matt" after finding out he had randomly been attacked, beaten, thrown in the trunk and dumped in an abandoned house. So heartbreaking.
ETA I think it was a Dateline episode.
