Triple Shooting In Northwest Detroit, At Least 1 Dead


Dispatch Audio Ashton Shooting Scene

Detroit – 9:10PM April 5 2017: Detroit police officers from the 11th Precinct were dispatched to the 6800 block of Ashton between Whitlock & W Warren on reports of shots fired into a dwelling.

911 dispatchers were told that shots had been fired into a known “drug-house” and that children may be present.

Additional reports state a small dark colored SUV was seen leaving the area following the shooting.

Detroit Fire’s Engine 55, Medic 22 and DEMS Medic 4 were dispatched to the scene. Engine 55 was advised by Central Dispatch that 2 people had been shot at the scene.

Later, an 11th Precinct Scout reported 3 males had been shot and there was at least 1 fatality.

Detroit evidence techs have been directed to the scene by Detroit Homicide.

Sources: The 3 victims may have been shot while sitting in a vehicle and a dwelling had absolutely nothing to do with the shooting. Sources also state the shooting occurred 3 blocks south of the actual shooting scene, so there’s that.

Best wait until the DPD sort through the mess.

Detroit And Hamtramck Police Chase Kidnapping Suspect

Dispatch Audio Of Pursuit Through Hamtramck

A Little Bit Of Florida Sunshine In Detroit

The D -10:00AM April 4 2017: Detroit Police were taken on a wild ride through the streets of Detroit & Hamtramck early this morning by a “delusional” kidnapping suspect.

What started off as a routine possible kidnapping call on Detroit’s border with Hamtramck ended up as a highlight worthy of an NFL post-game show…if this were football season, and it ain’t…but who cares?

Detroit Police scouts of the 11th Precinct were called to the area of Gable & Nevada at around 10:00AM on reports of a possible kidnapping.

On arrival, the officers were advised by a witness that a child had been heard screaming and a blue panel van was seen leaving the scene at a high rate of speed.

The officers caught up to the van and starting following it, not pursuing, just following. The vehicle, bearing Florida license plates, was connected to a felony and wanted by law enforcement.

The vehicle also matched the description of a vehicle that had fled DPD officers earlier.

As the officers followed the vehicle driven by a white female, permission was asked for and granted to “activate” lights and sirens.

Once the pretty lights started to flash and the wailing of the siren was heard by the suspected kidnapper, she floored it, leading the DPD, Hamtramck and a couple of other law enforcement agencies on a circuitous route through the beautiful City of Hamtramck.

The driver, obviously unaware of Michigan traffic laws, sped through the streets, drove over lawns and committed the most serious offense by leading police on a pursuit driving a flippin’ panel van.

In the beginning of the pursuit and the driving force behind the pursuit was the belief a child had been abducted and still inside the vehicle.

The Detroit Police have a very conservative pursuit policy and most pursuits are terminated due to public and officer safety.

The belief; later proved false, that a child was inside the pursued vehicle gave DPD supervisors the ability to approve the pursuit.

Towards the end of the pursuit, Hamtramck took the lead, a typical occurrence when a pursuit enters another jurisdiction, when a very aggressive Hamtramck PD Unit crowds the suspects vehicle at Caniff and the I-75.

Could this be our soon to be heroine?

So there we are, screaming through the streets of Hamtramck when the driver makes her FIRST serious mistake, she stopped.

The SECOND serious mistake was she stopped in the immediate vicinity of Officer Barbara B. Badass, now identified as Hamtramck Police Officer Nikole Jabour.

“Sunshine”; our suspected kidnapper from Florida, leaped from her speedy blue panel van and made a beeline for a chain link fence that borders the I-75 freeway.

Enter Officer Barbara B. Badass or now known as Officer Nikole “Crusher” Jabour .

From off camera (televised by Local4News & WXYZ) a streak was momentarily captured on screen.

The streak, Officer Barbara B. Badass sporting a ponytail, wearing glasses and strapped with a very large semi-automatic hogleg on her hip, promptly checked Sunshine from Florida against the boards, well, a chain fence.

Officer Badass grappled Sunshine to the ground, face-planting the miscreant into some of the most excellent SE Michigan mud you’ll ever find.

Other officers soon followed Officer Barbara B. Badasses cue and joined in the take down…but only after watching for a moment or two.

The suspect was then cuffed and placed in the back of a Detroit Public Schools Police unit. She was taken to Detroit Receiving Hospital for a mental evaluation and probably a couple of bandaids.

She was then sent to the 11th Precinct where she was conveyed to the Detroit Detention Center, a block from where the incident started.

Officer Barbara B. Badass was last seen wrestling a very large crocodile that had somehow showed up on the scene.

I kid, but she would.

Police Dashcam Footage Of Detroit Piston Caldwell-Pope DUI Arrest

By Leave a Comment

[fvplayer src=”https://youtu.be/NF429xK_q58″ width=”853″ height=”480″]

Auburn Hills, Michigan – March 30 2017: Auburn Hills Police Department has released dashcam footage of Detroit Piston’s Kentavious Caldwell-Pope’s DUI arrest on March 30, 2017.

The arrest at 02:50AM followed the Detroit Piston’s loss to the Miami Heat on the evening of March 29, 2017.

When he was stopped by Auburn Hills police early Wednesday morning, Pistons guard Kentavious Caldwell-Pope said he had had two drinks and water.

He was driving his Jeep Wrangler and at about 2:52 a.m., an officer observed him going 45 mph in a 25 mph zone on Auburn Road near Squirrel Road in Auburn Hills. After the officer pulled the car over, he reported “a strong odor of intoxicants emitted from the interior” and that Caldwell-Pope’s eyes “were very glossy and his breath smelled of intoxicants.”

That was the beginning of an arrest for Caldwell-Pope, 24, on a charge of operating while intoxicated (OWI), according to the police report, obtained by The Detroit News through a Freedom of Information Act request.

The arrest came just hours after the Pistons lost to the Miami Heat on a last-second shot, on Tuesday night at The Palace.

The police report indicates that Caldwell-Pope told officers he had two Hennessy cognac drinks, along with water and the last drink was at 2 a.m., almost an hour before he was stopped. The officer requested that Caldwell-Pope take a field sobriety tests, which included walking and turning, standing on one leg, reciting the alphabet and counting backwards.

The report noted that Caldwell-Pope did not pass all of the tests:

■ He did not walk heel-to-toe on multiple steps walking forward and stopped and restarted during the test.

■ He counted incorrectly while standing on one leg and did not have his foot the required height from the ground.

■ He was instructed to say the alphabet from “B” to “N” and continued past “N,” almost to the end.

■ He was asked to count backwards from 86 to 69 and missed one number, but ended at the correct number.

Caldwell-Pope submitted to a Breathalyzer test at the scene, which yielded a result of 0.098% blood alcohol content (BAC).
