FLUSHING (CCN) — At 8 pm on Friday (Sept. 27 2024) police officers had crime tape closing off one full block of Downtown Flushing in front of a group of businesses and in the parking lot behind them. Witnesses say there was a shooting where the victim has died.
Flushing police did not respond to a call to the daytime office number to confirm a death despite dozens of Facebook posts saying the victim was shot and killed.
Flushing Mayor Joseph Karlichek took to social media at about 9:30 pm to say the victim is in good condition at a local hospital in Flint.
He said a suspect is now in custody.
Arrested was a 46-year-old man from Garden City. The victim is a 29-year-old man from Flint.
Mayor Karlichek said they had a dispute over a road rage incident.
The Shiawassee & Genesee County 911 Scanner had posted a bulletin that is at right if you are reading on a laptop or PC, or scroll down to see if you are reading on your mobile device.
The bulletin said the suspect was on the run. He was last scene leaving the City of Flushing westbound in a Maroon Ford F150. He was described as a white mail driver with brown hair and glasses.
Multiple witnesses near the scene told The Daily Gazette that they heard gunshots.
Officers from the City of Flushing were assisted on the scene by officers from the Flushing Township Police Department and troopers from the Michigan State Police.
Mayor Karlichek said, "We want to thank the swift response of our police and medical team along with various law enforcement agencies."
Flushing's Mayor added that more information is to follow but assured residents that there is "no threat to the community"
The Daily Gazette arrived on the scene as a Flushing city police cruiser and an ambulance were arriving to attend to a male body on the pavement behind the building where multiple businesses are located. Three of them serve alcohol.
The last fatal shooting incident this year in the Flushing community was in March when a woman was hospitalized in critical condition and her ex-boyfriend was discovered dead at the scene in a 3:30 am shooting in the 8000 block of Potter Road in Flushing Township. The woman called 911 to report that her ex-boyfriend shot her multiple times, according to the Flushing Township police.
