1-Year-Old Boy Among 4 Injured In Dice Game Drive-By Shooting On Detroit's West Side

DETROIT (WWJ) - Police say a baby and three others were injured in a drive-by shooting while playing a dice game outside of a home on the city's west side.

The shooting happened around 7:30 p.m. Wednesday in the 9200 block of Memorial, in a neighborhood just east of the Southfield Freeway and West Chicago.

The group -- a 25-year-old man, 24-year-old man, 18-year-old woman and 1-year-old boy -- was on the porch of a vacant home when a car drove by and someone inside opened fire.

All four were injured in the gunfire; the baby and the 25-year-old were grazed by bullets, while the woman and 24-year-old man received multiple shots.

The victims drove themselves to two separate hospitals. All were last reported in stable condition.

Investigators have not yet discovered a motive for the shooting.

Police are now looking for two suspects, although physical descriptions were not immediately released.

Anyone with information on the incident is urged to contact police at 313-267-4600.
