FRENCHTOWN TOWNSHIP, Mich. (AP) - Two people have been wounded in southeastern Michigan after shots were fired into a vehicle carrying six people, including two children.

The vehicle was traveling in Frenchtown Township about 10:15 p.m. Monday when a man exited a car that had pulled alongside it and opened fire, the Monroe County sheriff’s office said.

An 18-year-old Monroe woman who was driving the first vehicle was shot multiple times and was listed Tuesday in critical condition at a hospital.



A 17-year-old female passenger received minor injuries. Two 20-year-old women and two children in the vehicle were not hurt.

The man who fired the shots fled in the second car. The shooting was not believed to be random.

Frenchtown Township is about 44 miles (71 kilometers) southwest of Detroit.
