Police are urging everyone to stay away from this area

On Thursday morning, Corewell Health Beaumont Troy Hospital, located just north of Detroit, was the scene of an active shooter incident that commenced around 7:08 a.m. Panic ensued as reports emerged that an individual had discharged a firearm in the hospital’s parking garage.

The shooter, who was later identified as a hospital employee, shot a 25-year-old colleague twice in the arm. The victim was promptly transported to the emergency department, where he was reported to be in stable condition.

The incident prompted an immediate lockdown of the hospital. Law enforcement, including police, SWAT teams, ATF agents, drones, and canine units, responded to the scene. Nearby schools and neighborhoods were instructed to shelter in place.

Authorities quickly clarified that the shooting was not random but rather a targeted act stemming from a personal dispute between the suspect and the victim. The shooter fled the scene in a vehicle, prompting a regional search operation.

By 9:30 a.m., police apprehended the suspect at a residence in Macomb Township. He was taken into custody without resistance. Surveillance and data tracking enabled authorities to locate him swiftly.

Hospital operations were temporarily disrupted but resumed later that morning after the site was deemed secure. Emotional and logistical support was provided to staff and patients.

Corewell Health pledged to reschedule any affected procedures and reaffirmed its commitment to workplace safety. This incident highlighted the critical need for robust security measures and the potential dangers of internal violence.
