CNN —At least nine people were shot at a recreation area in Rochester Hills, Michigan, on Saturday, and a suspect is contained at a home surrounded by officers near the crime scene, police said.
One of the victims was 8 years old, said Bouchard, who added he could not comment on the age of the other victims.
Bouchard said it appears the suspect pulled up to the recreation area, exited a vehicle and opened fire roughly 20 feet away, reloading multiple times.
Authorities are bringing in additional assets, including SWAT teams and armored vehicles to assist officers at the scene, Bouchard said.
“A vehicle that matched what had been described as a vehicle leaving the scene was there,” the sheriff said.
