Royal Oak police are searching for suspects in a shooting that happened outside of Hookah Joe's early Sunday morning.

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.

The man inside Hookah Joe's confronted the suspects as they walked to their car. Police said one of the suspects fired a shot at the man before they got in their vehicle.

As the man walked back inside Hookah Joe's, the suspects 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.

Anyone with information is asked to call police at 248-246-3500.
