DETROIT (WWJ) -- The search is on for a suspect in a double shooting on Detroit's east side early Tuesday morning that left a woman dead and a man injured.

It all unfolded shortly before 4 a.m. on May 6, according to DPD Cpt. John Stewart, who said police responded to Pinewood Avenue -- near 7 Mile and Schoenherr -- after getting a ShotSpotter alert.


Responding officers found a man coming out of a home who said had been shot. He was taken to the hospital, where he was listed in stable condition.

Officers then found a woman in her 20s who had been shot to death.

Authorities have not released any information about a possible motive in the case, but they do not believe there is any danger to the public at this time.

Stewart told reporters Tuesday morning near the scene that suspects were reportedly spotted fleeing the scene in cars, but no description has been given.

Anyone who may have witnessed the shooting or knows something about it is asked to call Detroit police or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-SPEAK-UP.
