Canton police are investigating the death of a man who was found shot early Monday morning.
It occurred around 12:45 a.m. on Koppernick Road just east of Holly Drive.
Neighbor Jim Davison said he “heard a couple gunshots” and “thought it was fireworks.”
However, he said he knew something was off. When he stepped outside, Davison said he saw the headlights on a red Chevrolet Equinox that was sitting in the roadway.
“So, I took a little ride up there to see and noticed the body (on the roadway) and called 911,” he recalled.
Canton police and Michigan State Police responded and remained on scene until about 1 p.m.
“This is the wildest thing that has happened on this street in 65 years,” Neighbor Bill Krashovetz told 7 Action News.
He said something woke him up, and he saw the police lights shining through his window. Krashovetz said he called to check on his neighbor to make sure he was OK.
His neighbor informed him about the gunshots.
Residents are left wondering who the victim is and what happened.
