KALAMAZOO, Mich. — A homicide investigation is underway after two people were shot in Kalamazoo early Monday morning. One of them was killed.
Officers responded to the 100 block of East South Street before 1:30 a.m., according to the Kalamazoo Department of Public Safety (KDPS).
We’re told 26-year-old Romero Devon Weakley from Kalamazoo was found with a gunshot wound. Officers and bystanders provided aid while awaiting an ambulance but the victim passed away shortly after.
KDPS says the second victim was taken to a local hospital for non-life-threatening injuries. The department expresses its sympathies to loved ones affected by the shooting.
The suspect remains at large. Authorities were looking for a dark-colored Dodge Charger with possible bullet damage. KDPS told FOX 17 Tuesday evening that investigators were able to find the suspect vehicle. It's not clear where they found it, nor have they said whether any arrests were made.
