The 37-year-old suspect is dead, police say, and no officers were injured.

MSP said they were called to the scene to investigate the shooting. Our crews on scene counted more than a dozen evidence markers at the scene.

Trenton Police Chief Mike Hawkins said officers responded to the scene after a reported shooting in Inkster around 2 a.m.

Inkster Police Chief Tamika Jenkins said the suspect was at Bogart's Lounge when he got kicked out. We're told he got into an argument with a security guard and then shot the security guard.

Officers received a message that the suspect's vehicle was pinging at the Van Horn location.

When they got there, officers encountered an armed suspect. That's when a shooting occurred, and the suspect was killed.
