ANN ARBOR, Mich. – Shots were fired into an apartment on the University of Michigan’s North Campus after a woman with a knife asked a resident for water and then got into a scuffle with him, police said.
The shooting happened around 8:25 p.m. Monday, June 5, at the Northwood II building in the 1600 block of Cram Circle in Ann Arbor.
Police learned that a woman had shown up to a resident’s apartment and tried to force her way inside. She entered without permission after requesting a glass of water and directions, according to authorities.
The resident said the woman had an unopened folding knife in her hand, and he suffered minor injuries during a brief scuffle, officials said.
The woman left the apartment after the scuffle, and less than a minute later, two gunshots were fired through his window, according to police. Nobody was struck by gunfire.
