DJ hit by stray bullet in Grand Rapids can’t work, police continue search for suspects

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — Grand Rapids police are still searching for up to three suspects in a downtown shooting that left a local DJ shot in the foot and unable to work.

Collin Piette is a DJ whose main residency is at Mojo’s Dueling Piano Bar & Restaurant, where he performs most Friday nights. Almost two weeks ago, he was walking to his truck after a gig at another bar when gunshots rang out nearby.

“Heard commotion across the street, thought nothing of it… But then gunshots fired randomly, and it was a series. It wasn’t like one here, one there. It was boom, boom, boom, boom, boom,” Piette said.

Police say the shooting also struck a juvenile in the hand. Piette was hit by a stray bullet in the foot.
