KALAMAZOO (WKZO-AM/FM) — A Comstock Township man has been arrested and charged with Kalamazoo’s latest shooting.
Matthew Derr, 47, is now charged with attempted murder, two felony gun counts and operating a drug lab following an assault on 40-year-old Ryan Harrington of Plainwell.
Harrington was found along East Michigan Avenue near Sprinkle early Tuesday morning by a passerby suffering from multiple gunshot wounds.
He remains in critical condition in a medically-induced coma at the trauma unit of Bronson Methodist Hospital. Sheriff’s deputies were quickly able to identify a suspect who lived less than a mile away and take him into custody.
Derr is being held in the Kalamazoo County Jail on a $250,000 bond.
