Detroit police confirmed two people were shot, one killed and another in critical condition, following a fight in Eastern Market on Sunday evening.
Detroit Police Chief James White said officers arrested a man from the Oakland County suburb of Oak Park who is in his 30s and is licensed to carry a gun.
Eastern Market is a popular tailgate destination for Detroit Lions fans. Hundreds flock to the market during home games. On Sunday, the Lions hosted the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at 1 p.m.
“Tailgating, drinking and guns. They don’t mix,” White said.
White said a fight between two men escalated about 4:30 p.m. at one of the buildings known as Shed 6 at the outdoor market. They put up hands in preparation to fight when the suspect pulled out a gun and fired at least two rounds, White said.
