On Thursday morning, Corewell Health Beaumont Troy Hospital, just north of Detroit, became the site of an active shooter incident that began around 7:08 a.m. Panic spread as news broke that someone had opened fire in the hospital’s parking garage.
The shooter, later confirmed to be a hospital employee, shot a 25-year-old coworker twice in the arm. The victim was quickly transported to the emergency department, where he was listed in stable condition.
The incident triggered an immediate lockdown of the hospital. Police, SWAT teams, ATF agents, drones, and canine units arrived on the scene. Surrounding schools and neighborhoods were advised to shelter in place.
