UPDATE TO JULY 13 PRESS CONFERENCE- MURDER SUSPECT IN CUSTODY

July 14, 2017

Eaton County Sheriff Tom Reich is pleased to announce that murder

suspect Nathaniel Bowers turned himself in to the Michigan State
Police Multi-Jurisdictional Fugitive Apprehension Team in Detroit.
Eaton County Sheriffs Office Detectives, Lansing Police and Capitol
Area Violent Crime Initiative had been working with this team since the
night of July 11th in an effort to locate Bowers. Sheriffs Detectives are
transporting him to the Eaton County Jail to be held for arraignment on
the charges issued by the Eaton County Prosecutors Office.

Sheriff Reich stated, We extend our deep appreciation to all of these

outstanding agencies that joined in the search for the suspect who is
now in custody.

On July 11, 2017 at 4:32 p.m., Eaton County Sheriffs Office Deputies
responded to a report of a shooting which occurred in the parking lot of
the Quicky Convenience Store at 4820 S. Waverly Road in Delta
Township. Upon arrival Deputies observed a 22-year-old male victim,
Trevon McDuffy of Lansing, lying in the parking lot with multiple
gunshot wounds. Delta Township Fire Emergency Medical Services
responded to provide emergency medical treatment, but Trevon died
from his wounds on scene.
Our Detectives began investigating to locate and identify the suspect
who had fled the scene. The suspect has been identified as Nathaniel
Marcelious-Antonio Bowers, black male, 23 years old, 5 4 tall with a
thin build. As a result of our investigation, the Eaton County
Prosecutors Office has authorized an arrest warrant for Open Murder
and Felony Firearm.

The Lansing Police Department, Capitol Area Violent Crime Initiative

Team, Michigan State University Police Department, and the Michigan
State Police Fugitive Team have provided tremendous ongoing
assistance in this murder investigation and search for suspect Nathaniel
Bowers.

Bowers is considered to still be armed and we are making every effort

to arrest him and remove this dangerous threat to public safety from
the streets. We are asking that anyone who sees or has information
about the location of Nathaniel Bowers to call 911 immediately.

If you are a witness or have any information regarding this crime, we

are asking that you call Eaton County Sheriffs Office Detective Sergeant
Josh Ivey at 517-652-3315 or Mid-Michigan Crime stoppers at 517-483-
