Graphic Video: Two Dead, Two Injured in Quadruple Shooting Outside Foot Locker in Eastpointe
Eastpointe, Mich. — A violent altercation outside a Foot Locker store in Eastpointe on Saturday afternoon escalated into a quadruple shooting that left two people dead and two others injured, according to the Eastpointe Police Department.
The shooting occurred shortly after 3:00 p.m. in the parking lot of the Foot Locker near 8 Mile Road and Kelly Road.
Authorities say the violence was the result of a dispute between two groups of individuals that quickly turned deadly.
Graphic video footage from the scene shows three individuals suffering from gunshot wounds—two of whom were pronounced dead at the scene, and a third individual, shot in the face, who was reportedly conscious and alert.
The remaining two victims sustained injuries that police say are non-life-threatening and are currently listed in stable condition.
According to police, the altercation began as a verbal dispute and quickly escalated.
During the confrontation, one individual reportedly drew a firearm and began striking another person with the weapon, which ultimately broke during the assault.
In response, a woman retrieved a second firearm from the trunk of a vehicle and opened fire, striking four individuals.
A third person allegedly picked up the firearm used in the shooting and fled the scene.
Detective Lieutenant Alexander Holish of the Eastpointe Police Department emphasized that, despite the chaotic and deadly nature of the incident, “we’re very lucky that bullets didn’t enter the store,” potentially endangering staff and customers inside.
At this time, no arrests have been made, and the identities of the victims have not yet been released.
Police are continuing to investigate and are working to identify those involved.
While no suspects are currently in custody, officials stated that they do not believe there is an ongoing threat to the public.
Anyone with information related to the shooting is urged to contact the Eastpointe Police Department or reach out anonymously through local tip lines.
