On Thursday morning, Corewell Health Beaumont Troy Hospital, located just north of Detroit, became the scene of fear and confusion as an active shooter incident unfolded in what had begun as an ordinary workday. At approximately 7:08 a.m., gunfire erupted in the hospital’s parking garage, abruptly shattering the calm of the early morning shift. Within minutes, panic surged through the facility as reports spread that a person had been shot.
Authorities later confirmed that the suspect was a hospital employee who opened fire on a coworker. The victim, a 25-year-old man, was struck twice in the arm. Emergency responders transported him immediately to the hospital’s emergency department, where he was treated and listed in stable condition. While the injuries were not life-threatening, the emotional shock of the event rippled far beyond the physical harm caused.
