14-year-old dead, another teen injured after shooting outside state fair

Novi police say one teen is dead and another injured after a shooting outside the Michigan State Fair in Novi on Saturday evening.

It happened just before 10 p.m. Saturday evening, with police responding to reports of gun shots in the area southwest of the Suburban Collection Showplace in the parking lot near Grand River Avenue.

According to police, two 14-year-old boys were shot in the parking lot of the fair.

Currently, police do not have a suspect in custody, but they believe the shooting was targeted.

No details have been released about the suspect.

Investigators told us Sunday morning that the two boys took an Uber from Detroit to Farmington Hills, then another Uber to the fair with some friends. They say the shooting may have stemmed from an argument that had been happening involving the teens that had been going all week.
