18-Year Old Woman Found Dead in Lansing Apartment


An 18-year-old girl, whose family said attended Kenwood Academy in Chicago, was found dead Sunday morning in a suburban Lansing apartment.

Summer Mitchell was found fatally shot in a first-floor apartment in the 17700-block of Commercial Avenue, which she shared with her boyfriend. Her family said she was shot in the chest.

Lansing police gave few details, only confirming that they are conducting a death investigation. They would not say whether they are looking for a suspect.

Mitchell's family said they have not seen the boyfriend and allege that he left in her car, a gold Grand Am.

Mitchell was a high school senior who spent most of her time studying or at her job at the Dollar Store, her family said.

"I talked to her last night, she was happy. She was laughing ... She was fine, nothing was wrong," said sister Kahla Mitchell said.


Relatives said Mitchell is a relative of Chicago community activist Andrew Holmes.
