This series takes a closer look at each card, beginning with the Ace of Hearts, Ashton Hull.

The Ace of Hearts: Ashton Hull

MLive reports Ashton D. Hull was just 20 years old when he was killed in Flint. On the night of August 5, 2013, police were called to a home in the 700 block of East Marengo Avenue, near Saginaw Street. Inside, Ashton was found on the living room floor, suffering from multiple gunshot wounds.

A handgun was recovered near the home. Witnesses reported seeing one man flee the scene. The suspect has not been identified, and no arrest has been made. More than a decade later, Ashton's case remains unsolved.

The Ace of Hearts is not just a card. It represents a life interrupted and a family still waiting for answers. Crime Stoppers hopes that by keeping Ashton Hull's face and name in circulation, someone who knows something will finally come forward. Maybe you...
