2/27/13 - Two suspects have been charged in the 2010 murder of a former Livingston County man who was shot and killed while working as a security guard in Flint. 53-year-old John Mick of Goodrich (pictured) was shot to death at the Flint River Village Apartments in August of 2010. Mick, who lived in Brighton for 14 years, had worked as a security guard at the GM Proving Grounds in Milford before retiring to take the security job in Flint. Security footage from the apartment complex captured a newer-model Chevy Impala backed into a parking lot and police had been searching for two suspects, but more than two years passed without an arrest. That changed after two suspects, 19-year-old Floyd Gene Perkins and 21-year-old Kenya Ali Hyatt, were arrested in connection with another crime in Mt. Morris Township. Flint Police say they were able to obtain information that the two may have been involved in Mickâs shooting and sought charges. After some follow-up investigation, Perkins and Hyatt were charged with felony murder, armed robbery and conspiracy to commit armed robbery by the Genesee County Prosecutor's Office. They were both arraigned on charges last week and are due back in court February 26th. (JK)
