According to police, a woman was shot about 1:30 a.m. in a SUV on Whittier Avenue at Kelly Road. Evidence markers littered the street indicating a high volume of gunshots were fired. She then drove about 100 yards down the road to near the intersection of Houston Whittier Street and Hayes Street.
It’s not known what led up to the shooting. Someone went to the Detroit Police Department’s 3rd Precinct and said they shot and killed someone. It’s unclear if that person was admitting to this fatal shooting.
Detroit police are working to figure this out.
