DETROIT (WWJ) -- A 29-year-old Detroit man is facing several charges in connection to a double shooting.
Wayne County Prosecutor Kym Worthy charged Edward Mack Anderson on Monday with the non-fatal shootings of two Detroit residents -- a 63-year-old man and a 56-year-old woman.
According to officials, on March 14, at approximately 9:14 p.m., Detroit police officers were dispatched to a residence in the 350 block of Newport Street for a reported shooting.
Upon their arrival, officers located the male victim with a gunshot wound to the right arm, and the female victim with a gunshot wound to the left thigh. Both were transported to local hospital for treatment.
Authorities allege that Anderson forced his way into the victim’s home and fired a handgun, non-fatally wounding the victims before fleeing the scene.
