SWAT/SRT Callout on the east side of Detroit

Detroit Police & Fire Response To Conner St Barricaded Gunman

Detroit Police had a SWAT/SRT call-out last night and into this morning on Connor & Freud in the east side of Detroit,  5th Detroit Police Precinct.

What started off as just a call of a possible armed robbery ended up being a full-blown in your face barricade with children and adults involved. Detroit Police units from the 5th precinct made the scene late Monday night and were met with gunfire from inside the house. It’s not believed any of the shots were actually fired at officers.

5th precinct supervisors quickly set up a perimeter and contained the scene. Attempts were made to negotiate with the suspects inside the dwelling but they quickly deteriorated, requiring a declaration and call-out of  Detroit PD’s SRT/Hostage Negotiation team.

DPD working a declared barricade situation (SRT call out) w/1 hostage. Suspect appears to be armed. Connor/Freud area. 5th Precinct. #MC911

Negotiations have been ongoing for awhile now, but they’ve broken down. SRT hostage negotiators are making their way to scene. #MC911

The suspect had at least 1 hostage according to scouts on the scene.

A wide perimeter had been established due to the proximity of the house and the surrounding neighborhood.

Previous attempts at negotiation had failed and at least 1 attempt “to take out” the armed suspect failed when he went back into the house.

Detroit Fire’s 6th Battalion under the command of Battalion Chief 6 responded to the scene and staged nearby at Clairpointe & Freud.

At around 1:25AM, DPD reported the house was on fire and that the suspect had fired rounds from the dwelling. The 6th Battalion was notified to hang tight until the all clear was given by the DPD.

Battalion Chief 6 reported that they had rescued 1 small child during the search. 1 suspect is in custody after being tackled by an SRT Commander. It’s unknown if the 2nd suspect escaped or became a crispy critter during the fire.

2 children were injured and conveyed to a local hospital. 1 child is said to be in critical condition.
