LIVONIA (WWJ) -- A Redford woman was killed and other two people were wounded in a shootout early Tuesday at a Livonia party store.
Just before 1 a.m., Livonia police responded to the store on Merriman Road, near I-96, to find the 27-year-old victim dead in the parking lot.
According to investigators, there was an argument inside the store involving the victim and the suspect, identified as a 24-year-old woman from Detroit.
The two women then went out to the parking lot, where police said it's alleged the suspect pulled a gun and fatally shot the victim.
A 25-year-old Detroit man — who was an acquaintance of the victim, according to police — also had a handgun on him. He returned fire, shooting both the suspect and a 24-year-old Warren man who was with her.
Police arrested the suspect and she and the Warren man were treated for gunshot wounds at a local hospital. Police noted that the woman did have a concealed pistol license (CPL).
Officers also arrested the Detroit man who fired shots. Police said he had an expired CPL.
Both guns were recovered by police at the scene.
Police said it appears that the two women involved did not know each other prior to their argument inside the store.
No names are being released at this time, as the investigation continues.
The prosecutor's office will determine charges once the investigation is complete.
