The Oakland County Sheriff’s Department, along with other agencies, are currently responding to a shooting incident at the Brooklands Plaza Splash Pad in Rochester Hills. According to Oakland County Sheriff Michael Bouchard, the incident has left nine to 10 people injured, with victims ranging in age from 8 years old to adults.
During a news conference held this evening, Sheriff Bouchard stated that there were “nine, maybe 10, victims of varying kinds of injuries.” The suspect, who has been described as being “contained” in a house within a half mile from the scene, reportedly opened fire as he ascended the steps of the splash pad.
