Warren police officers responded to a distressing call regarding a domestic disturbance at a residence located in the vicinity of Ryan Rd., just north of 11 Mile. Reports indicated that a man was engaged in assaulting family members, prompting swift action from law enforcement.
According to Warren Police Commissioner Charles Ruston, the situation escalated rapidly when the individual emerged from the residence brandishing a handgun. Confronted by officers, the armed individual allegedly pointed the weapon at law enforcement, compelling them to discharge their firearms in response. Multiple shots were fired, ultimately resulting in the fatal injury of the suspect.
Commissioner Ruston further disclosed that the suspect was swiftly transported to a nearby medical facility, where he was subsequently pronounced deceased. Amidst the chaos, officers valiantly administered life-saving measures until the arrival of the Warren Fire Department, who facilitated the man’s transfer to the hospital.
Emphasizing the gravity of the situation, Commissioner Ruston asserted that the internal investigative arm of the Warren Police Department is spearheading the inquiry, eschewing involvement from external entities. He underscored the pivotal role of body camera and in-car footage in unraveling the sequence of events that led to the tragic outcome.
As the investigation unfolds, pertinent details remain scant, with authorities refraining from divulging additional information at this juncture. The community awaits further updates as the Warren Police Department diligently pursues answers in this harrowing incident.
