Man charged in slaying of uncle on Detroit's west side

Detroit — A 28-year-old man is being charged in the slaying of his uncle on the city's west side last weekend, police announced Wednesday.

Mark Williams was arraigned Tuesday on felony charges of first-degree murder, felon in possession of a firearm and felony firearms.

Bond was denied. His next court appearance is scheduled for Tuesday.

Police said Williams was visiting relatives at a home in the 6600 block of Sparta about 8:40 p.m. Saturday when he started arguing with his uncle, Robert Williams, 46.

After Mark Williams left, police said, "he fired shots into the dwelling, striking Mr. Williams, who has died from the injuries."

Detroit Police Homicide investigators requested help from the Detroit Fugitive Apprehension Team to find and arrest Williams.
