Just before midnight on Saturday, Nov. 11, the Kent County Sheriff's Office Communications Center received calls of a shooting at the 4 Mile Show Place along 4 Mile Rd NW.
Initial information was reporting someone was shot and hundreds of people were in the building at a party. As deputies, Walker Police officers, and troopers arrived, they found hundreds of people inside the venue and many leaving. Upon checking inside, police did not find anyone struck by gunfire. However, people injured from a fight were found with minor injuries.
Our initial investigation finds that a large party had occurred for several hours. Just prior to 911 being called, several groups of people started fighting and at some point a male suspect walked inside the building and fired a shot into the ceiling. After a bystander confronted the shooter, they were pistol-whipped in the face with the butt of the pistol. The suspect was described as a male wearing all black who left in a sedan.
Investigators are still working to obtain more details about the incident. If you may have been inside and have a video of what happened, you are encouraged to contact the Kent County Sheriff's Office.
