On the morning of March 20, 2025, a shooting occurred in the parking garage of Corewell Health Beaumont Troy Hospital, a major medical campus just north of Detroit. Police received the first report of an “active shooter” at approximately 7:08 a.m., prompting a rapid law enforcement response and security alerts in the community. The incident was later described by authorities not as a random attack but as a targeted confrontation between two hospital employees. One man was struck by gunfire and subsequently treated at the hospital; his injuries were reported as non‑fatal and he was listed in stable condition.
Troy police and multiple area agencies quickly mobilized to secure the scene and locate the suspect as initial reports spread confusion about the nature of the shooting. Officers cleared surrounding areas, and an emergency alert advising residents to stay away from the hospital was issued while police searched for the gunman. Though early information was limited, authorities confirmed that the victim was able to identify his attacker, aiding in the investigation.
By mid‑morning, the situation shifted from a potential ongoing threat to one in which the suspect was in custody. Officers found and arrested the alleged shooter at a home in Macomb Township later that morning, concluding the search without further violence at the hospital. Police clarified that the shooting appeared to be an isolated workplace incident, and that there was no continuing threat to the public once the suspect was detained.
The immediate response included a lockdown of the hospital, shelter‑in‑place notices for nearby schools and community members, and a large multi‑agency law enforcement presence. Hospital operations were temporarily disrupted, with elective procedures postponed and patients sheltered in secure areas as staff worked to maintain safety and calm. Healthcare workers and visitors experienced fear and uncertainty as authorities cleared the building and communicated updates.
In the days following the incident, prosecutors charged a 21‑year‑old man from Macomb Township in connection with the shooting. The suspect faced assault with intent to murder and firearm charges, underscoring the seriousness of the confrontation, which investigators described as stemming from a personal dispute between colleagues. Court proceedings moved forward with bail denied and further hearings scheduled.
While only one person was physically wounded, the episode highlighted concerns about safety in healthcare environments, especially when routine workplaces can suddenly become scenes of violence. Local officials and community members praised first responders for their swift action, and hospital administrators emphasized support services for staff and patients affected by the traumatic event. As operations gradually resumed, the focus shifted toward healing and reflection on workplace tensions and emergency preparedness.
