Triple Shooting in Monroe County

Monroe County Sheriff's Department

Authorities say a triple shooting in southeastern Michigan has left one man dead and two others injured. 
Monroe County Sheriff's officials say shootings early Sunday morning at a home in London Township killed a 32-year-old Romulus man and hurt a 35-year-old Taylor man and 38-year-old Brownstown Township woman. The injuries weren't life-threatening.
 A sheriff's release says the men got into a fight and several witnesses unsuccessfully tried to break it up. The homeowner fired warning shots into the ground, but fighting resumed after a brief break.
Investigators say the Romulus man grabbed his gun from a vehicle and shot the Taylor man in the chest. The homeowner then fatally shot the Romulus man once in the chest.
The woman was shot in the hand.
