Holland Twp. shooting suspect taken into custody

55-year-old David Moses Martinez has been charged in connection to a shooting at a Holland Township business.

HOLLAND, Michigan — The suspect in a Holland Township shooting is in custody after barricading himself inside a home Monday.

Police say 55-year-old David Moses Martinez was taken into custody around 7:45 p.m. He will be lodged at the Ottawa County Jail after he is medically cleared.

The incident began when deputies with the Ottawa County Sheriff’s Office first responded to Adient Manufacturing, located on Douglas Avenue, around 6:45 a.m. Monday after receiving a report of a person with a gun and a person shot at the business.

Upon arrival, deputies found a 51-year-old woman with non-life-threatening injuries. She was taken to a local hospital for treatment of a hand wound. 

The sheriff's office identified the suspect as Martinez. He was wearing a black hooded sweatshirt, a black coat and a bandana on his head at the time of the shooting.

Deputies confirmed a handgun was used during the altercation. 

Critical response team members and crisis negotiators later responded to the 12100 block of Falcon Lane in Holland Township and attempted to contact him.
