Dearborn man shot and killed in Detroit clothing store, police say

Police are investigating after a 27-year-old man was found shot to death inside a Detroit clothing store on Wednesday.

Ali Wissam Aoun was found dead inside Goodfellas Wear on Woodward Avenue after police and EMS were called to the location at about 6 p.m., the Detroit Police Department said. He was identified as the store owner's son.

"He was a good guy. Always gave me discounts on my clothes for my kids," said Rondell Glenn.

Glenn says his kids loved coming to the store, but after learning that he was killed there, he says it's hard to believe.

"I didn't know it was him (Aoun) involved with it. I thought it was some people from the street maybe met up inside the store," he said.

Aoun will be buried on Friday in Westland, according to an announcement from the Islamic Institute of America in Dearborn Heights. A memorial Isbouh service will take place on Sunday.

"May Allah have mercy on Ali's soul, grant him the highest level of Paradise, and give his mother, father, siblings, relatives, and loved one's strength and patience through this unimaginable loss," the notice said. 

Police ask that anyone with information about the shooting send their tips to Crime Stoppers of Michigan at 800-SPEAK-UP, DetroitRewards.TV or to the Detroit Police homicide unit at 313-596-2260.
