They immediately exited the field of fire but not before spotting a suspect dressed in all black firing an AR-15 with a large capacity magazine.

The police unit in question immediately turned around and entered the area again to search for the shooter. Numerous units from the 12th & 10th Precincts made the scene and established a perimeter.

A citizen on the scene told officer’s that he saw the suspect exit a vacant residence and fire at the officers, then run from the scene.

A K-9 (K-9 70) and Detroit PD’s Air 1 (Helicopter Airship) were brought in to track the suspects. The K-9 track ended at a location on Exeter & Remington Streets, east of the original encounter with the gunman.

Police were polling residences with surveillance cameras and it appears as if some of those cameras captured images of the suspects.

Those images are now being enhanced by Detroit Police evidence technicians.

Two subjects were taken into custody and transported to the Detroit Detention Center by units of the 12th Precinct. Their relation to the ambush or to the shooter is not known at this time.

The area around the old state fair grounds is known for its high crime rate and being populated by several drug houses.

A vehicle was also under investigation on Derby St. Evidence techs were dispatched to secure the crime scene and collect evidence.

Detroit Police have since exited the area and are no longer actively searching for the suspects.
