When it was all over, near the intersection of Mack and Cadillac, the suspect vehicle had crashed into another vehicle, injuring two people.

Detroit Police assisted at the scene of the crash.

Police arrested a 36-year old Harper Woods man.  According to family members, the suspect has mental issues.
