Gunfire erupted Friday during a funeral on Detroit’s west side, leaving five people injured, including the suspect.

At about 5:48 p.m., a physical fight broke out during a funeral at Greater Love Tabernacle Church on Plymouth Road, south of Interstate 96 on the city’s west side, authorities said.

During the fight, one suspect produced a handgun and fired into the crowd, striking multiple people, authorities said.

Officers were already stationed in the area, assigned to assist at a separate visitation at a nearby funeral home after police received threats of violence during that event. One officer who responded to the church in response to the fight saw the shooting and returned fire, striking the shooter.

“I want to thank the Detroit Police Department for the officer’s quick and courageous action, which prevented further harm,” Mayor Mary Sheffield said in a statement late Friday. “This was an act of senseless violence, and it has no place in our city.”

In total, five people were struck, including the suspect, police said. All were hit in the lower part of their body and were hospitalized with non-life-threatening injuries.

Police called the shooting an “isolated incident” and said there was no ongoing threat to the public.

Authorities said four of the injured parties were in their mid-20s, including the suspect. The other victim was in their mid-30s.

Sheffield said the funeral was for a young man who had died in a car crash.

“My thoughts are with them, their families, and everyone affected. I am grateful that all of the victims are expected to survive,” the mayor said.

The suspect was taken into police custody and police recovered the firearm, authorities said.

Police were not sure why the combatants were initially fighting at the church.

A Minneapolis man is charged after he drove at two campground workers in Washington County, court documents show.

According to a criminal complaint, 53-year-old Michael Fritz is facing two counts of second-degree assault and one count of fleeing a peace officer.

Washington County deputies were called to the Saint Croix Bluffs Campground on Tuesday around 1:10 p.m. in response to a caller who said Fritz attempted to run him and his wife over.

The workers told deputies they were picking up trash when Fritz argued with his girlfriend, then yelled at them to stop looking. Court documents said Fritz then got into his car and drove through multiple campsites directly at them.

At one point, one of the campground workers said Fritz “aimed the car” at her husband and came within feet of hitting him. The campground worker also said she had to run behind a large tree to protect herself, according to the criminal complaint.

Deputies spoke with a camper who confirmed Fritz drove his car directly at the two campground workers. Then, deputies took Fritz into custody after a brief pursuit.

Fritz is set for an omnibus hearing on Sept. 16.
