The shooting happened near the intersection of Anglin Street and Stender Avenue, and involved a red Jeep, a black sedan, and a possible third vehicle. Police say the 6-year-old boy was hit when a stray bullet from this shooting entered his home. Police do not have anyone in custody, but the red Jeep is a vehicle of interest.
"To the persons who did this. To the persons. Do yourself a favor. If you didn’t pull that trigger, you need to be telling us right now who did, cause a baby is dead," said Detroit Police chief Todd Bettison. "We will catch you. Trust us when we say that. We have an excellent track record we have technology. And we will bring them to justice. *
After seeing the amount of rounds on the ground, Chief Bettison believes one of the people involved may have also been hit, and is asking hospitals and residents to be alert of anyone needing help from gunshot wounds.
