1 dead, 1 injured in shooting at birthday party at Detroit Airbnb, police say

One person is dead, and another was hospitalized after a shooting at a birthday party at a short-term rental property on Detroit's west side early Tuesday morning. The shooting happened around 3 a.m. Tuesday in the 18700 block of Monica Street near Clarita Street, according to police. Police say the suspect was attending the party and fired shots, striking a 19-year-old man, who was later pronounced dead, and a 20-year-old woman, who was taken to a local hospital. At this time, no suspect is in custody.


"Oh my God why do they do this? There's somebody shot. That's what I believe I heard," Says wa;ler during the incident "I heard a male and female exchange words. It sounded like someone got kicked out of a car, or somebody voluntarily got out, and there was a lot of commotion and back-and-forth arguing," he said. "Then about 30 minutes later, shots rang out had to be at least seven or eight.".

The home where the shooting happened is listed online as a "stylish" Detroit short-term rental. Neighbor George Ford says gatherings at the property are common. "Usually, on the weekends is when the bigger crowds come. But throughout the week, you still have individuals coming through," Ford said. However, Ford said this particular party was different. "This crowd was extraordinary. I'm telling you, there were so many cars from here all the way down to the corner just lined up," he said.
