Detroit Police, Fire & Severe Weather Incidents
via MSP’s Second District: On July 18, MSP’s Trooper 2 located a stolen Hyundai traveling on Joy Rd and scouts from the Detroit Police attempted to make a traffic stop. The vehicle fled from DPD and drove reckless through the city streets and through Southfield. The 2 occupants stopped on Melrose near Greenview in Southfield, fled on foot and were taken into custody in the area of Stahelin & Melrose after a brief foot pursuit.
Detroit’s SW Side 1004PM Thursday 8 11 2022: A Detroit 4th Precinct Scout attempted a traffic stop on an improperly plated black Dodge Ram at around 10:04PM Thursday evening. The vehicle was occupied by 3 Black males. The occupants fired on the officers from inside the vehicle, striking the Detroit Police Scout Car. No officers were injured.
The 4th Precinct Scouts followed the vehicle and additional shots were fired at officers according to dispatch audio. At one point during the pursuit, the officers returned fire and struck the suspect vehicle in the area of Omaha & Electric.
The pursuit entered the 94 and 39 freeways on several occasions approaching speeds of 115MPH. The suspects ended up Southfield Rd & Snow Ave where a pit maneuver by Michigan State Troopers forced the vehicle to stop. The 3 males bailed from the vehicle. Two of those suspects was taken into custody almost immediately after running towards some ponds, with one running across the 39 Freeway in the area of Southfield Rd across from Lowes Home Improvement in Allen Park, near the ponds. All 3 suspects were taken into custody by responding units from the Michigan State Police, Detroit Police Department and Dearborn PD at around 10:32PM. The weapon used to fire on the officers; described in dispatch audio as an AR15, was also recovered.
The Southfield Freeway was closed during the investigation.
No officers were injured during the exchange of gunfire. An MSP Trooper did receive ‘bumps and bruises’ during the takedown.
Below is dispatch audio from the Detroit Police Department and the Michigan State Police.
Detroit’s East Side 11:00AM 31 December 2021: An armed robbery of a postal worker occurred earlier Friday morning in the area of Bewick & Edsel Ford Service Drive. The vehicle wanted was described as a white Chevrolet Trailblazer with a plate of EHG 3807. Shortly after information was passed to the DPD’s 9th Precinct, the vehicle was spotted by DPD’s Crime Intel and a 9th Precinct Scout at the BP gas station at Gratiot & Gunston, across the street from the 9th Precinct. The suspect was pumping gas when he was spotted.
The pursuit was initiated, according to dispatch audio, when the scout activated his lights. The suspect fled NB on Gratiot from Gunston.
The vehicle led police officers from multiple agencies through Macomb County until the pursuit was terminated by scouts performing a pit maneuver at Jefferson & Main in New Baltimore. It appears as if DPD’s Air 1 spooled up and assisted ground units during the pursuit. It also appears as if the pursuit never exceeded 60MPH. The suspect was taken into custody at around 11:59AM and the weapon recovered. Below is the dispatch audio captured.
Detroit’s East Side 6:36PM October 26 2021: DPD’s 9th Precinct scouts observed a gray Dodge Charger *ram a red Jeep* with children inside, described as infants on dispatch audio. The officers activated their lights and sirens but; surprisingly, the Muppets in the gray Dodge Charger fled the scene. Officers from the 9th, 7th, 3rd, 4th and DPD’s helicopter Air 1 all were at one time or another involved in someway with the pursuit and detention. It was quickly ordered; due to the vehicles high rate of speed and safety issues, Air 1 would take over the pursuit and notify ground units of the Charger’s location and Muppeteering.
Eventually, a Scout (Police Officer) chased down at least 1 dipshit at 20th & Michigan, taking what dispatch audio described as the driver or “head fucking Muppet” into custody. It’s unclear if more than 1 Muppet was detained.
DEMS Medic 20 was dispatched to the accident scene involving the red Jeep and children. Dispatch audio stated DEMS Medic 20 cleared the children on the scene. Below is dispatch audio from the moment the Muppet Powered Dodge Charger struck the red Jeep and ends in the detention.
Well done Detroit Police, well fucking done!
