Police: Man shot multiple times Sunday is recovering
The 32-year-old Ypsilanti Township man shot Sunday in Ypsilanti still is in the hospital, but he is improving and is no longer in critical condition, according to police.
Detective Sgt. Thomas Eberts said Monday the man had been shot in his legs and is no longer in critical condition. The man is expected to recover, Eberts said.
However, the investigation into the incident is encountering some issues because the man isn’t talking.
“All the gun shot wounds are in the lower extremities but he is not willing to talk about what happened,” Eberts said in an email. “He will recover.”
The man was discovered in the 400 block of Second Avenue in Ypsilanti, police said. He was shot at 3:47 a.m. but told police he didn’t see the gunman.
The injured man flagged down a passing driver to get a ride to the hospital, according to police.
Anyone with information on this incident is encouraged to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800 SPEAK UP (773-2537).

The cancer I was referring to is the rising tide of violence.

Barzoom stated "The cancer in Detroit is spreading west" Since there has been no mention of Detroit one can safely assume Barzoom's prejudice is showing.

So here is a person who will not help themselves. That's a slap in the face to everyone who has helped this person, including the good samaritan who gave him a ride to the hospital, that he is unwilling to help law enforcement capture his assailant.
