ANN ARBOR, Mich. – Three people have been taken into custody after a shooting in Ann Arbor killed a teenager.
It happened just after 1 p.m. Friday, Sept. 26, outside a strip mall near the intersection of Packard Street and Platt Road.
Police said an 18-year-old man from Westland was wounded during a shootout after he exited a business. He was taken to a hospital in critical condition, where he later died from his injuries.
A first responder was working traffic enforcement when he reportedly spotted a vehicle leaving the scene. Police said the officer chased after the vehicle, which crashed into a tree near Lorraine Street.
Three suspects were taken into custody shortly after the crash. Police believe the shooting was targeted and not random, though the motive remains unclear.
