Upon arrival, officers discovered that an altercation occurred, but both parties had already fled the scene.
“The investigation revealed that there was a verbal altercation in the parking lot, which escalated into pushing and shoving,” said Public Safety Director Joseph Marsh. “One of the males involved pushed the suspect, at which time the suspect produced a handgun, firing several shots, striking the victim multiple times.”
The victim, a 29-year-old Wyandotte resident, survived the shooting and was listed in stable condition at an area hospital.
The suspect is described as black, 5 feet 9 inches to 5 feet 11 inches tall, and weighing between 180 to 200 pounds. At the time of the incident, he was wearing dark-colored pants, a dark-colored jacket with a yellow or white hoodie underneath and white shoes.
The suspect fled in a black Chrysler 300, with dark-tinted windows and black rims.
Within minutes of the incident, numerous people who live in the area posted on Facebook that they heard gunshots. One person who said she lives in the area of Fort Street and North Line Road, the same area where the bar is located, reported hearing eight gunshots. Others corroborated that report, also saying they heard eight gunshots.
Although police did not confirm where the victim was located, several people listening to the incident play out on a police scanner reported that the victim was found near the intersection of Dix-Toledo Road and Eureka, in a vehicle.
Anyone with information about this incident or the suspect is asked to contact Detective Sgt. Tim Demers at 734-258-3056 or the Southgate Police Department at 734-258-3045.
