GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — The Grand Rapids Police Department is looking for a suspect who fled after an officer-involved shooting.
According to GRPD, it happened at 11:44 p.m. Saturday when two officers with the Department's Special Response Team made a traffic stop in the 1900 block of South Division Avenue.
Police say the vehicle pulled into a parking lot before a man got out of the passenger side and took off into an alley.
The officers chased the eastbound man until he ran between two houses in the 1900 block of Horton Avenue Southeast.
They say that's when the man took out a semi-automatic handgun and fired several rounds at the officers, who returned fire.
Gunfire did not hit either officer, but the man continued running away, and it's not clear whether he was hit by the gunfire police returned.
As of 6 a.m. Sunday, the suspect hasn't yet been caught.
GRPD describes the suspect as a light-skinned Black or Hispanic man in khaki pants and a black, puffy hooded coat. Anyone who might know anything is asked to call GRPD Detectives at (616) 456-3380 or Silent Observer at (616) 774-2345.
Michigan State Police now is investigating the officer-involved shooting, and the two officers are on administrative leave, per procedure.
