Carlous A. Wires, 48, was fatally shot in his Quincy, Illinois, home at 706 N. 4th Street on the night of November 24, 2015. He was found by police after a report of shots fired and had been shot twice in the head.

Born September 23, 1967, in Quincy, Wires worked at Hesse Flooring and Carpet and refereed at the YMCA. He was active in his church, serving as an usher and attending men’s Bible study at the Cathedral of Worship, and was known locally as a DJ who enjoyed smoking turkeys, barbecuing, and playing basketball. The primary suspect in the case was Steven Gavin, who faced multiple charges related to the shooting; his trial began in January 2020 after an earlier mistrial in February 2019.

Does anyone who knew Carlous or was in that neighborhood in 2015 have information that could help clarify what happened?
