Police Continue To Investigate Death Of Woman, 31, Fatally Shot While Running On Rural Road

ROSE TOWNSHIP, Mich. (WWJ/AP) - Police are investigating the death of a woman who was fatally shot while running on a rural road in Oakland County.

State police Lt. Mike Shaw says it's possible that 31-year-old Alexandra Brueger was familiar with the shooter.

Shaw says a white or light colored four-door sedan was traveling at a high rate of speed on Fish Lake Road between 2:35 p.m and 2:45 p.m. Saturday.

Shaw says a Rose Township resident heard gun shots outside his home and went to investigate.

"He noticed that the young female was laying face-down on his property," said Shaw.

Shaw says the victim's relatives said she regularly ran on Fish Lake Road. He says investigators are trying to determine if there's someone she "might have been having some kind of difficulties with."

Police want to talk to that driver, who they say, was headed southbound. Anyone with information is asked to contact police right away.
