Police Urge Public to Avoid Area After Early-Morning Shooting at Corewell Health Beaumont Troy Hospital
Authorities are asking residents to stay clear of the area surrounding Corewell Health Beaumont Troy Hospital following a serious early-morning shooting that triggered a large police presence and a temporary lockdown of the medical campus.
According to preliminary information from law enforcement, the incident occurred shortly before sunrise inside the hospital’s parking structure. A 25-year-old employee was reportedly shot twice in the arm. Medical teams on site responded immediately, and officials confirmed that the victim survived and is receiving appropriate care.
Police say the suspected shooter, described as a coworker of the victim, left the scene shortly after the gunfire. Officers quickly secured the hospital grounds, issued shelter-in-place instructions, and expanded patrol operations throughout nearby neighborhoods as a precaution. Local schools and surrounding facilities were also notified while authorities worked to contain the situation.
Witnesses described moments of confusion and tension as hospital staff and visitors were directed to safe areas. Emergency protocols were activated, and administrators coordinated closely with first responders to ensure the safety of everyone on campus. Law enforcement vehicles remained stationed around entrances and access points while investigators began processing the scene.
The search for the suspect concluded later in the morning when officers located and detained the individual at a residence in Macomb Township. Authorities confirmed the arrest was made without additional injuries. While the investigation remains ongoing, early indications suggest the incident may have stemmed from a dispute between individuals who were acquainted.
Officials have emphasized that there is currently no active threat to the broader public. However, certain sections of the hospital’s parking structure and nearby areas remain restricted as investigators continue gathering evidence.
Hospital leadership released a statement expressing appreciation for the swift response of staff members and emergency personnel. Support services are being offered to employees and patients affected by the event.
Police continue to encourage anyone with relevant information to come forward as detectives work to determine the full circumstances surrounding the shooting. Further updates are expected as more confirmed details become available.
