Royal Oak Police say they have made an arrest in the weekend shooting at Hookah Joes.

No details have been released on the suspect.

According to police, the incident began on the second floor of the building between two suspects and another person. During the "altercation," one suspect pulled out a gun and another motioned like he had a gun in his waistband.

Security took both suspects out of the building, but were confronted by the person outside as they were walking to their vehicle.

Police said that's when the suspect fired a shot at the person before getting in their vehicle. As he walked back inside Hookah Joe's, he pulled up and fired three or four shots directly into the lounge, hitting an employee in the head. He suffered a minor injury.

According to police, the suspect's vehicle is likely a silver or gray Dodge Charger with chrome rims, tinted windows and a dent on the passenger side door. The first suspect is described as a black male, 6-feet to 6-feet-3-inches tall with a thin build. The other suspect is described as a black male, 6-feet tall with medium build and long hair pulled into a pony tail.

It's not clear which suspect is in custody.
