KALAMAZOO (WKZO AM/FM) — Kalamazoo Public Safety officials are looking for two young black males after a carjacking Sunday night.
Capt. Shannon Bagley says it began around 10:30 p.m. when the suspects approached two men in a vehicle in an alley off Hays Park in the Edison Neighborhood.
The suspects allegedly offered to sell the men marijuana. When they refused, the two victims say one of the young suspects produced a hand gun and fired it into the ground and quickly fled.
The other suspect carjacked the vehicle, and was spotted soon after by Public Safety. After a short chase into Portage, he had a minor crash and fled on foot.
The gunman who fired is described as 6-foot, light-skinned black male with short curly hair wearing a grey sweatshirt and jeans.
The carjacker is about 5’9” with hair in dreadlocks, wearing a black sweatshirt and sweatpants.
Both men were in their 20’s.
