Early Thursday morning, Corewell Health Beaumont Troy Hospital, located 24 miles north of Detroit, was thrust into chaos following reports of an active shooter on the premises. The alarming situation began at around 7 a.m., triggering a swift response from local authorities. Law enforcement quickly issued a shelter-in-place order, as hospital employees barricaded themselves inside while the scene unfolded.

The shooting left a 25-year-old man wounded, having been shot twice in the arm. Fortunately, the victim was treated for his injuries and is currently in stable condition. Early reports suggest that the shooting was an isolated incident, with the gunman—identified as a hospital employee—firing shots at a co-worker in what authorities described as a “targeted attack.” It was later revealed that the gunman fired five shots in the hospital’s parking lot, one of which hit a nearby vehicle.
