In a tragic shooting at a Detroit suburb splash pad, an 8-year-old boy was critically injured and at least 7 others, including children, were shot. The suspect opened fire indiscriminately before being contained in a home, where they died by suicide. The random attack shattered a summer day outing and left the community reeling from another senseless act of gun violence just over a year after the Oxford High School mass shooting nearby.
