This is video from a story we broke on March 23, 2017. DPD units from the 9th Precinct responded to reports of a shooting on a DDOT Bus at Harper & Whittier on Detroit’s east side..
Upon arrival, responding officers reported that none of the fired rounds took effect, then quickly amended their report stating some rounds had struck the bus.
The incident began when the DDOT bus was flagged down by a woman at Harper & Whittier. She was quickly followed by the suspect, DeWilliam Pugh. An argument between the suspect and woman took place inside the bus when the bus driver intervened.
The bus driver repeatedly ordered the suspect off the bus until he pushed Pugh off.
Pugh then appears to fire at least 2 rounds in the direction of the driver, missing him. At least 1 round struck the door of the bus.
Update: The rounds DID take effect, striking the DDOT Bus, but no injuries, thankfully.
