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.
