GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — The Grand Rapids Police Department is investigating a homicide that occurred at an "after hours" party early Sunday morning.

GRPD said a call came in from the 1800 block of 28th Street SE just before 3 a.m. that four people were fighting in the parking lot of a commercial building. Officers discovered the fight stemmed from an "after hours" party that was occurring at a business.

Officers were addressing the group in the parking lot when shots were fired from inside the building. The crowd spilled outside, bringing with them a 31-year-old man who had been shot. Officers began life-saving efforts before advanced medical care arrived, but the man was pronounced dead at the scene.

This was the 14th homicide in Grand Rapids this year.

The major case unit was called and is following up on leads. There is no suspect information at this time.

A shooting in the same area occurred in 2016 that killed one man and left eight others injured.
