The woman was shot in the shoulder and drove herself to a Detroit police precinct. Officials then took her to the hospital for non life-threatening injuries.
Prior to the shooting, the 23-year-old woman, from Clinton Township, was reportedly dropping friends off at their home in Downtown Detroit after attending a party.
While on eastbound I-94, the woman decided to exit the freeway to get gas. However, at the gas station, she had an “uncomfortable feeling and chose not to get gas,” police said Monday.
The woman got back on the freeway, traveling westbound. It was “soon after” that a vehicle approached hers and an unknown person or persons shot at her, police said.
Investigators reportedly found two shell casings on the freeway after closing it for a search. The suspect or suspects are unknown, and police say there is currently no suspect description.
The investigation is ongoing.
