But our top story tonight,
a Sunoco gas station clerk shot after an argument.
It happened last night near East Seven Mile
and Mound on Detroit's east side.
That's where we find Fox 2's Ingrid Kelly.
She's live with the very latest tonight.
Ingrid.
Well, hey, Rupert, you know what?
Police say there was an argument and that led to a fight.
And then this clerk here was shot. Take a look at the video. The clerk
was shot in his upper chest and was rushed to a nearby hospital.
Now the clerk is listed in temp serious condition.
Now take a listen to what a longtime customer had to say.
What I saw last night was about 14 police units here at the gas station
at Coney Island asking people what they seen or whatever.
I just heard that it was a clerk got shot at the gas station.
He's all right. Thank God. Yeah, but you know, crime is getting worse.
So hopefully they can get it together and keep the city safe.
Back out here live, you know,
officials here at the city of Detroit, they say that crime rates
continue to go down and people who live here
and around here in this community, they say they don't
want that trend to end. Detroit has been doing
a pretty good job lately as far as the violence go,
but we definitely need to put an end
to just the hate on hate type of crime
and people handling everything with firearms.
Back out here live. Investigators want anyone
who has information to contact
DPD or Crimestoppers at 1-800- SPEAK-UP. Back to you, Rube.
Yeah, and they've obviously made a real effort
to make those gas stations safer in the last few
years with green light cameras and surveillance
and other things like that. Hopefully that'll
continue to make a difference in this case and others.
Absolutely, I was able to, they did not want to go on camera,
the people who work inside
this gas station, but they did make it clear
that police came by and they were able to
get some sort of surveillance video.
And I also went around to a couple
of these other businesses nearby, no one had anything
to share.
But we do know that that video often can lead to suspects.
The bottom line is that, they also said this person,
this clerk, he is a good person.
And he was just coming to work to do his job and did not deserve this.
And so, you know what, obviously safety is key, but end the violence.
Back to you.
All right, Ingrid Kelly for us live tonight.
Thank you, Ingrid.
