A South Lyon man, who had been hospitalized since he was shot inside his home, has succumbed to his injuries.
43-year-old Kevin Stamper passed away Tuesday after being hospitalized in critical condition following the December 30th shooting that killed his 17-year-old son Dylan. South Lyon Police Chief Chris Sovik told WHMI the family made the difficult decision Monday evening to remove artificial life support, which happened this afternoon. He noted that Kevinâs body was fighting infection among other challenges. Sovik says an autopsy was performed this morning at the Oakland County Medical Examinerâs Office to determine cause of death and retrieve evidence, a bullet. He says theyâll discuss the death with the Oakland County Prosecutorâs Office and possibly amend charges against the two persons who are currently in custody.
