A neighbor who lives nearby spoke to FOX 2's Hilary Golston and said she heard the gunfire near Fielding and Cambridge at 11:10 a.m.

"I was pulling out of my garage to go down the opposite way from Fielding and I heard gunshots and it was more than just one, it was over eight," she said, "I could hear them fly over the car, but I didn't see where it was coming from, I was just ducking down trying to get out of the way."

She said she noticed one vehicle flee from the scene but could not give a description. 

"I didn't see anything, but when I got to the corner of Patton, I saw a car zooming down Vassar," she said. "I didn't see what color it was. But I saw he was going really fast. I was just trying to get away."

There is no status on the conditions of the three hospitalized victims. Police say there may be more injured.

"We need the community’s help to solve these senseless crimes," said DPD Deputy Chief Jacqueline Pritchett. 

Producer note: Detroit police originally said that three teens were wounded in one shooting. The story above has been updated with new DPD details.
