Pray for the people that none were hurt.

So tired of this.

This is right behind my house. I drove by the shooting site about an hour before it happened. Very shocking.

I'll share any local updates as they come through.

I did see an Oakland County Sheriff helicopter fly just north of my house a few minutes ago, presumably still searching for the shooter.

Shooter has presumably been located. Police are currently barricading a subdivision in Shelby Township about a mile north of the shooting site. Will send a photo momentarily. MOO.

SWAT armored vehicles belonging to Oakland County Sheriff's Department entering into the barricaded complex now.

Wasn't able to capture a photo unfortunately. MOO.

We had an active shooter at the splash pad on Auburn in Rochester Hills. That is still an active crime scene and we potentially have the suspect contained nearby, but we asked for the moment people stay away from the area. We have numerous wounded victims. More to follow.

Here's another armored vehicle approaching the site. Apologies for the black sidebar and volume menu; it's a screenshot from a video clip I took.

So sorry - I know from experience how awful these situations are when they happen nearby. Very upsetting. Take care.

As many as ten people were shot at a splash pad in Rochester Hills around 5 p.m. Saturday after a "random" gunman got out of a vehicle and unloaded 28 gunshots from a handgun at the streetside park, Oakland County Sheriff Michael Bouchard said.

The shooting occurred at the Brooklands Plaza Splash Pad, 1585 E. Auburn Road, in Rochester Hills, according to the Rochester Police Department and Oakland County Sheriff's Office.

The gunman drove up to the water park, got out of a vehicle, opened fire with a 9mm Glock semi-automatic handgun, reloaded, fired and then reloaded a second time, leaving three bullet magazines at the scene, Bouchard said.

Police later recovered the handgun and magazines, Bouchard said.

Addressing reporters at 7:30 p.m. near the Rochester Hills park, Bouchard said there were nine or ten shooting victims.

Bouchard said the gunman was contained in a home a half mile away from the park and that a swat team was being assembled.

He is pointing out this is the same county/area where Ethan Crumbley shot and killed four students at his school three years ago. And now another mass shooting. Fyi, the ticker has shown 9 to 10 people shot including an 8 year old. That's all the info showing, no updates on condition.

"Nine, “maybe 10” victims were injured in the shooting at Brooklands Plaza Splash Pad in Rochester Hills and transported to multiple hospitals with “varying kinds of injuries,” Oakland County Sheriff Michael Bouchard said during a Saturday evening news conference.

The sheriff did not have further details on the extent of the injuries but said he knew at least one person was out of surgery and “did well.”
