Superior shooting
Two victims in a Superior Township shooting were hospitalized with non-life-threatening injuries Tuesday.

“An altercation broke out between the two subjects,” a report from the Sheriff’s Office said. “The suspect displayed a shotgun (and) the victim ran into the residence fearing for his life.”
Police said the Ousley then went on to break several windows in the home before leaving. Deputies located Ousley, placed him under arrest and transported him to the Washtenaw County Jail.
Only minor injuries were reported, according to police.
