Police: Fear of retaliation makes criminal investigations even harder
SAGINAW, Michigan (WNEM) A 26-year-old father is in critical condition after an exchange of gunfire in broad daylight Wednesday afternoon.
The man’s nine-year-old son was in the backseat of the car as his father was struck by several bullets and fired back at the shooter on Glenwood Street on Saginaw’s southeast side.
The child was unharmed.
“A very disturbing thought that the nine-year-old could’ve been struck,” said Michigan State Police Sgt. Joe Rowley.
State police said the victim isn’t cooperating with detectives. A problem that Rowley said is too common.
