Around 7 a.m. on Thursday, police responded to reports of an active shooter at Corewell Health Beaumont Troy, located 24 miles north of Detroit. Authorities issued a shelter-in-place order as hospital employees barricaded themselves inside. The victim, a 25-year-old man, was shot twice in the arm but is in stable condition after receiving treatment. Early reports suggest the incident was a “targeted attack” in which a hospital employee fired at a co-worker, discharging five shots in the parking lot and striking a nearby vehicle. A large-scale manhunt ensued, and the suspect was eventually arrested at a home in Macomb Township after surrendering to police officers who contacted him by phone. His identity has not yet been released. Witnesses described the terrifying scene, with one medical assistant recalling
how a coworker warned her to stay in her car as police officers arrived with guns drawn. “It’s scary. You go to your workplace thinking you’re going to be safe,” she told Local 4. Social media users shared warnings urging people to avoid the area, and nearby schools also went into lockdown following reports of the shooting.
