Just after sunrise, calm turned into chaos at the hospital when alarms sounded and safety protocols were activated in response to a reported shooting in the parking garage.

Staff and police quickly secured areas, and alerts urged those inside and nearby to shelter in place while law enforcement responded to the frightening situation.

Officials later confirmed that a 25‑year‑old hospital employee had been shot in the arm by a coworker in a targeted incident and was treated for non‑life‑threatening injuries at the same facility.

Multiple agencies—including local police and sheriff’s deputies—worked together to search for the suspect, who was located and taken into custody without incident in a nearby township.

The incident, initially treated as an active shooter situation, left staff and patients shaken because it occurred at a place meant for care. Corewell and local authorities offered support and counseling services to help employees and community members process the stress and emotional impact in the days that followed.

In the aftermath, attention shifted toward restoring normal operations and healing. The focus remains on ensuring safety, supporting those affected, and learning from the response to strengthen preparedness, even as the hospital resumes routine care and community solidarity continues.
