Police are working to identify a man's body found in a vacant Detroit home. The mother of a missing woman stumbled across the crime scene. She was following a tip, hoping to find her daughter.
A stretcher was wheeled up to the front door of a house in the 4000 block of West Philadelphia Thursday where the body of a shooting victim was found.
The heavyset man in his thirties or forties was up in the attic. Pamela Johnson spotted him on a desperate search for her own missing daughter.
"I went through five vacant houses on this block off of a tip, and I did find a body. It's not my child, but I brought closure to somebody's family," she said.
Johnson has been looking for 26-year-old Kalisha Madden, an exotic dancer who goes by the stage name "Mocha." She was last seen Sunday leaving the Vegas Strip Club on Michigan Avenue, which used to be called the Sting Bar.
Madden is a mother of six children.
"I don't want them to think that their mommy just left them. She didn't just leave you. Somebody took her, and I just want to bring my baby home whether she's dead or whether she's alive. I'm hoping and I'm hoping," said Johnson.
