The suspect shot in Skandia Township in an altercation with Michigan State Police (MSP) Thursday night remains in the hospital Friday.
MSP 8th District Public Information Officer Lt. Mark Giannunzio said in an email to TV6 that the suspect is listed in “critical but stable condition” by UPHS-Marquette staff.
According to the MSP, the shooting happened when troopers were attempting to arrest the suspect on a felony warrant during a traffic stop on US-41 near the intersection of South Carshend Rd., also known as County Road 456. South Carshend Road was closed Thursday night while investigators responded.
Giannunzio said the MSP has not released further details about the sequence of events leading up to the suspect being shot because the MSP Incident Response Team is still investigating those details.
An arraignment will not be scheduled until the suspect is released from medical care, which Giannunzio said may take several days. The suspect’s name will not be released until the arraignment is held.
