“We were talking, and we heard two shots, two large pops, and we both looked down there at the same time when we saw the gentleman running from the side of the house. The gentlemen they put into custody, I guess that’s who it was.”

WWJ News reported that when police officers from Harper Woods showed up at the crime scene, they set up a perimeter around the home. The police officers went into the house and discovered Elam and Farmer in the bedroom upstairs, suffering from the onslaught of bullets. Farmer was already deceased, while Elam was pronounced dead after being taken to the hospital.
