DETROIT – It’s been a dangerous week for Detroit Police officers.
Saturday was the fourth time in seven days that suspects had fired shots at officers.
“It’s a very dangerous, dangerous time for police officers across this country and particularly here in the city of Detroit,” said Detroit Police Commander Darin Szilagy.
“At that point, everybody inside of the vehicle opened all the doors and begin running away from the officers,” Patterson said.
“The male then leaned out of the vehicle and fired shots, or led to fire shots at the officers.”He said the gunman tried to runaway and pointed his weapon at the police, who fired back but didn’t strike him.
