Oakland County Man Injured In Road Rage Shooting: Police
DETROIT — An Oakland County man was injured in a Wednesday road rage shooting on a Detroit freeway, according to police.
The shooting at 2:35 p.m. Wednesday on the Lodge Freeway, known as M-10, and 7 Mile Road in Detroit, according to police.
The 64-year-old Birmingham man was taken to a nearby hospital where he is expected to survive, according to police.
Police said the man was alert and conscious while on the scene. They also found the man’s vehicle, which had several bullet holes, police said.
Police determined road rage was the motive for the shooting.
Officials did not release the suspect vehicle or a description of the shooter, as the investigation continues.
“It is disappointing to hear that another traffic dispute led to gunfire,” said First Lt. Mike Shaw. “I cannot stress enough that it is only driving. A driving error should never lead to the use of a weapon.”
Police asked anyone with information to call 855.MICH.TIP or crime stoppers 800.SPEAK.UP.”
