[QUOTE]DETROIT (WJBK) - Two were killed by gunshots in an ambush in northwest Detroit. A Mercury Grand Marquis was riddled with bullets, probably from an AK-47, according to police sources. Teenagers inside the car were in a dispute with at least two others at a Detroit home. The Mercury was driven off, and that party was followed by people in a black SUV. That SUV ambushed the Mercury on the southbound Southfield Freeway service drive at Cathedral near Joy Road. "We have a two fatal victims, one a female and one a male," said Inspector Dwane Blackmon from Detroit Police. After he was shot, the male got out of the car and ran before collapsing and dying on the service drive. The female was found dead in the car. Both are only teenagers. A third victim, a female teen, sustained glass fragment cuts to her face. She'll be okay. Veteran homicide investigators are sadden to notify both families on the deaths of the two young people, and they say the disagreement and the ambush that followed never should have happened. "It seems to be that what we're lacking is the ability to resolve conflicts without shooting," Blackmon said. "This particular incident from what I'm being told is something that could've been, I believe, handled without shots being fired at people inside vehicles." A restraining fence could have very well kept the car from catapulting onto the freeway. As many as two suspects and two guns may have been involved in the shooting. Detroit Police are investigating. If you have any information, you are asked to give them a call.

Lots of guns use the same caliber as the AK-47. Could have been a cheap SKS for all we know.

theres something wrong with people on this planet. but the real question is, why are they that way
I would like to note that people will most likely say that this is something that happens everywhere, all of the time, and that that attitude is just horrible. Please, don't rail Detroit for this, but don't say that stuff like this just happens because of the age we live in. I know you can't do much about what happened, but taking such an apathetic approach is not going to resolve anything. A more assertive, vibrant approach might not do anything either, but at least when you pretend to care you don't give the feeling that we have all given up hope for the planet.

Trust me I know that the City is trouble. It's an established fact. I'm just thankful the only way to get to me is over a bridge or through a tunnel. Violent crimes are a common occurrence in Detroit. Any time I sit down to dinner, I hear of a shooting, murder, execution or fire bombing from the city.
Don't forget how every month, the state lowers the budget for that cities police force and other public services.

This sort of thing happens all the time, but there's an active state-enforced media blackout on gang activities to prevent notoriety for the gangs and prevent general panic. The fact that this is here and doesn't mention anything about gang violence leads me to believe that it's not gang related at all. Just some info for you.

The Florida FP'ers are recuperating from every single story about Florida ever. It's hard to tell where this thread is going, it's alternating between arguments with no point and a small little gun debate in the background.
