Detroit Police Dispatch Audio

The shooting occurred at the Valero gas station, 20800 W 7 Mile Rd at around 11:40PM.

The Detroit police were called to the scene for a report of shots fired but found only a pile of freshly fired shell casings, an old lotto ticket and a used condom.

Details are a bit sketchy but it appears as if the 3 victims were privately conveyed to Sinai-Grace Hospital by an unidentified man .

That unidentified man turned on his heels and ran for the hills after dumping the bleeding three amigos at the hospital.

Police say a gaggle of men were sitting inside a Chevrolet Uplander at the Valero discussing religions role in flower arranging according to sources, when two dudes emerged from a beauty salon next door.

One of those well groomed men was armed with a high powered rifle.

Rounds were fired into the van and 3 were struck by bullets, two 21 year olds and an older, much wiser 31 year old.

One of the 21 year olds died. The other 21 year old is being treated for a GSW to the brain-bucket and is in stable condition.

The 31 year old is just glad he’s shorter than the other 2. He’s being treated for non-life threatening injuries.

Police are investigating whether this was a deliberate attack or just a unfortunate misfire in the direction of the Chevrolet Uplander.

Surveillance footage from the Valero is in the hands of the investigators.

Detroit Police Officer Still In Critical Condition

Detroit – 1045PM: A Detroit police officer was shot on Detroit’s west side Sunday night.

Officers from the 2nd Precinct, Unit 21, responded to reports of an assault & battery at Joy Rd & Dawes.

As the 2 officers attempted to make contact to the reporting person, the suspect emerged and started firing on the officers with a .25 semi-automatic handgun.

Both officers returned fire and struck the suspect.

The suspect was killed and remains on the scene. The suspects weapon was also recovered.

The dead suspects relation to the original call is unknown.

The suspect tied to the original call left the scene in the assault & battery victims vehicle before the officers arrived.

The wounded officer is a 14 year veteran of the DPD. The officer’s partner, a rookie just 6 months out of the academy was not wounded.

The wounded officer was conveyed to Beaumont Hospital in Dearborn by another DPD scout while other scouts blocked roads and intersections leading into Dearborn.

The officer is in critical condition with a “devastating” gunshot wound to the back of the head.

46-year-old POS James Ray has been identified as the shooter.

“Our investigators are estimating that our officers knocked kicked a number of times on the door trying to gain entry unsuccessfully,” said Chief James Craig.

“They were responding to a domestic assault and battery, a woman calling for help.”

“As Ray left his apartment building with a gun, he has actually chambered a round in his weapon,” Craig said. “As he approached the front door that was locked he opened the front door with the gun extended. His arm was extended and the officers responded.

“The officer that was shot fired several rounds from his department issued weapon and simultaneously both the officer and the suspect fell to the ground.”

The wounded officer is the 5th Detroit police officer shot this year and the 7th officer injured or killed since September of 2016. 2 officers of the 12th Precinct were shot by a shotgun wielding knucklehead on Easter Sunday 2017 and 2 officers from the 3rd Precinct were shot on March 15th by a dirtbag thought to be connected to Sgt Collin Rose’s murder in 2016.

Ray’s carcass was eventually bagged and tagged by the medical examiners office.
