On April 2, 2013, Detroit officers in a high-speed pursuit cornered a murder suspect at Linwood and Hooker Street. The suspect fired from inside his vehicle, wounding an officer; officers returned fire and the suspect was killed. During the exchange, 37-year-old Detroit Police Officer Patrick E. Hill was struck in the head by what investigators believe was shrapnel from a shotgun pellet fired by a fellow officer.

Officer Hill was taken to a local hospital in critical condition. He remained in a vegetative state and died from complications of his injuries on October 19, 2013. A 13-year veteran of the Detroit Police Department, he was survived by his wife and four children.

If anyone has information about the shooting or remembers details from that April 2nd incident, please share what you know.
