KALAMAZOO, Mich. — Kalamazoo Department of Public Safety (KDPS) is hoping you can help them track down an SUV seen leaving the scene of a double shooting Thursday morning.
Authorities said someone gunned down 35-year-old Kalamazoo man Tyrone Jerome Potts in the 900 block of West Lovell Street. Another victim was also shot several times.
That's about a block west of Stadium Drive and northeast of Western Michigan University.
Potts was transported to an area hospital critically hurt and he died a short time later.
KDPS said this is an ongoing investigation but does not appear to be a random shooting.
According to police, the vehicle seen leaving the shooting was a white Dodge Journey with Michigan license plate 7PJS08.
Kalamazoo College did go on a brief lockdown but is back open, the department says.
Anyone with information is encouraged to call the KDPS Criminal Investigation Division at (269) 337-8139 to speak with a Detective.
Information can also be provided anonymously through the Kalamazoo Silent Observer tip line at (269) 343-2100, the “P3Tips” app, or online at www.KalamazooSilentObserver.com.
