OTTAWA COUNTY, Mich. — In Holland Township, police responded to a barricaded suspect in the 12100 block of Falcon Lane who was wanted in connection to a Monday morning shooting.
The suspect was taken into custody around 7:45 p.m. and has been identified as 55-year-old David Moses Martinez of Holland.
In an exclusive interview with 13 ON YOUR SIDE, the brother of the suspect, Isaias Martinez, said he hoped David would come out peacefully.
"He did what he did, we all make mistakes, just give up and turn yourself in, get this done with, and go on with life," Isaias said when asked what he would say to David. "It happened... I wish I could do more than that."
The incident started Monday around 6:45 a.m. when Ottawa County police responded to Adient Manufacturing 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.
Deputies confirmed a handgun was used during the altercation.
Police later tracked David to a home on Falcon Lane and worked to contact him.
"I just hope that this all ends right. I don't want anybody else to get hurt," Isaias said. "It's been enough already. I just don't understand how we can't get to him."
Isaias said their mother wanted to talk to David, but police were not allowing relatives to speak with him.
Police say David has been charged with assault with intent to commit murder, felon in possession of a firearm, felony firearm and discharge of a firearm inside a building and as a habitual offender,
This incident is still under investigation. Anyone with information surrounding the incident is asked to call the Ottawa County Sheriff’s Office or Silent Observer at 1-877-88-SILENT.
