DETROIT (WXYZ) — Police say they arrested a man wanted in connection to an attack of a woman in a Troy Target parking lot and a murder in Detroit.
The Detroit Police Department says a woman who was about 30 years old was found dead Tuesday morning. Video footage from near the scene led police to identify the suspect in the case as 31-year-old Andrew Hall.
Troy police identified Hall as a person of interest in the brutal attack of a woman outside the Target store last Friday on Coolidge Highway near E. Maple Road.
Before running off, police said he seriously injured the woman's face and pulled out a gun. The victim in this situation fought back against her attacker, according to the Troy Police Department.
Both Detroit and Troy police considered Hall armed and dangerous. Officers say he used a gun in Troy and there are indications a knife was used in Tuesday's murder. Police warned people not to approach him.
Hall was taken into custody Tuesday afternoon, police said. He was found in Dearborn Heights then was turned over to police in Detroit, Troy police said.
The Oakland County Prosecutor's Office issued a warrant Tuesday afternoon in the Target assault case, and he faces the following charges:
- Unlawful imprisonment
- Assault with intent to do great bodily harm
- Attempted carjacking
- Carrying a concealed weapon
- Possession of a firearm in the commission of a felon
