WARREN, Mich. – Police are investigating a double shooting at a home in Warren on Friday morning.

ORIGINAL STORY: 1 killed, 1 injured in shooting at home in Warren

According to authorities, there was a shootout at about 2:30 a.m. with the homeowner and a home invasion suspect suspect in the 3000 block of Blancke Drive, near 13 Mile and Hoover roads. 

The home invasion suspect was killed and the homeowner was injured, police said.
