5 family members shot after fight between brothers
By Dave Herndon and Camille Amiri
DETROIT (FOX 2) – Two brothers are in critical condition, and at least three other family members were shot after an altercation at a house in the 14500 block of Sussex Street in Detroit on Saturday afternoon.Assistant Chief Charles Fitzgerald of the Detroit Police Department said that two brothers were arguing over a family matter, when they got into a fight.
A family member who called FOX 2 said that the two brothers were fighting over something to do with their mother, who had died earlier in the day.
Fitzgerald said that during a fight, the gun fell out of one of the brother’s waistbands, the other brother picked it up and opened fire. He said that other family members then returned fire to defend the first brother who was shot.
Two people, including the brother who is thought to be the original shooter, have been arrested. Fitzgerald said they were “still sorting out” the rest.
Preliminary information shows that the younger brother was shot in the chest, and the older brother was shot in the right shoulder. Both are listed in critical condition.
Three women were also injured. They were also shot, and are in temporary serious condition.

ATF Deputy Director Marvin Richardson Forced To Retire
Darwin Nercesian
Marvin Richardson, long-time Deputy Director of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), has been fast-tracked to the unemployment line after he was given the option of voluntary retirement or forced removal. Richardson had been with the ATF for decades, serving under numerous administrations with his record stretching back to the 1993 conflict in Waco, Texas, leaving seventy-six Branch Davidians dead, including over twenty children, a massacre for which he was awarded the Treasury Department’s Hostile Action Medal.
Richardson is the latest holdover to part ways with the ATF as the Trump Department of Justice (DOJ) under Pam Bondi seeks to clean house at the agency after its political weaponization by the Biden administration. Earlier this year, ATF Chief Counsel and fellow anti-gun sweetheart Pam Hicks received her walking papers and was subsequently replaced by Second Amendment scholar and professor, Robert Leider, but not before doing her fair share of damage alongside Richardson by targeting the firearms industry and American gun owners with unconstitutional regulation and prosecution for years.
Richardson, who saw pistol stabilizing braces as an affront to his beloved infringement, the National Firearms Act of 1934 (NFA), was an instrumental force behind the ATF’s declaration of war on Americans who had equipped firearms with them based on the agency’s previous rules declaring braces a non-NFA accessory. He was also one of the key tools in the Biden administration’s attack on privately manufactured firearms, for which the left has now attached the made-up moniker, “ghost gun.”
No Score

Well, bye.
For those that will fight for it, FREEDOM has a flavor the protected shall never know.

A family circular firing squad.
They all need more range time.
And so soon after dear Mom passed.
No respect for the deceased.
Nothing says “Brotherly Love” like shooting up the family at Dear Departed Mom’s Wake. Probably just another way the boys made Dear Departed Mom proud. Sadly, I see this type of article right regularly, but usually the perp is not injured or DRT by return fire. A little bit of a stretch for a true FGS but the pickens have been real slim of late.
Good riddance. The weaponization of the feebies started long before sniffy creepy came along. He will retire with a nice cushy pension and the ones he helped murder will still be dead.
Anything worth having is worth fighting for.
“…good for varmits and pest control…” That would be two (2) legged varmits and pests…right?
Looks more like a caulking gun than a belt accessory.
Bah!
Getting Richardson out of the office is a good start.
But he’s still consuming too much O2 and retirement pay.
He needs to to have a 3AM knock-and-crash at his front door, and with all the noise and confusion, he’ll be shot (ironic, eh?) and placed on a morgue slab…..just the same as he’s inflicted on too many innocent gun owners.
Just because he didn’t pull the trigger, doesn’t mean that he doesn’t have blood on his hands.
Anyone who doubts the lethality of a 5.7 should look at the killed/wounded counts at Ft. Hood when Hassan shot it up.
Be very wary of Bondi. Much like Trump, she is pro-gun in speech but has often supported anti-2A measures – she is most definitely an unreliable pol.
