From ktar.com (2016 article):
If losing a loved one to violence isn’t bad enough, losing them around a holiday or special date makes it even more tragic.
“Unfortunately, the family gets haunted every year by the memory of their loss,” Phoenix Police Sgt. Jamie Rothschild said.
Investigators need help finding the killers of 26-year-old Henok Woldu. His body was discovered in his car at 4:30 a.m. on Thursday, Dec. 24, 2015 — Christmas Eve.
The officers who found him were responding to calls of shots fired near 27th Avenue and Indian School Road.
“There were witnesses in the area who saw two men and a woman flee the area in a black SUV,” Rothschild said. “We know there were more people out at that time of the morning and we really need anyone who saw anything to contact us.”
Woldu worked two jobs. One was at the airport doing wheelchair transport. The other was at a convenience market.
Rothschild said Woldu was very involved and well-known in the Ethiopian community.
“We don’t have any indications to believe that he was anything other than a hard-working man trying to support his family and be engaged in the community he serves.”

Thoughts? The above is from a different local channel but Phoenix's ABC station has also covered Henok's case and keeps a seemingly fairly accurate database of unsolved murders in Phoenix. Unfortunately, as of this posting date (11/8/2018), Henok's case is still listed as unsolved on their listings: www.abc15.com/news/news-photo-gallery/phoenix-cold-cases-murders-missing-persons#id0
