"Members of the Allen Park Detective Bureau were called in and processed the scene and interviewed witnesses at the location and at the hospital. It is the policy of the Allen Park Police Department to utilize all resources to track down violent offenders to accomplish our mission of providing a safe community. The Chief activated the newly formed Downriver Violent Crimes Task Force who is assisting in the investigation. At this time, after speaking to witnesses and persons of interest, the detectives are developing probable cause to identify the shooter and obtain an arrest warrant," Allen Park police said.
