Shootings like this remind us of the pressing issues in the neighborhoods of Detroit.
A drive-by shooting around 3:40 p.m. Friday left two men dead and two others wounded on the city’s west side in the 2600 block of Hazelwood near Linwood, George Hunter and Mark Hicks of the Detroit News reports. The incident happened when when four men were sitting on the porch and three men in a black SUV pulled up and started shooting.
Police said it appeared to be a targeted shooting. Kids were around, but weren't hurt, the News reports.
There was a 4-year-old and 10-month-old outside playing right there, and these clowns come by shooting guns,” Assistant Police Chief Steve Dolunt said, according to the News. “I’m livid.
“I’m thinking this had to be retribution for something. These are all older guys.”
Police are looking for the shooters.
