Man walks into Detroit precinct, shoots 4 cops

In a violence-weary city, even this news was stunning: A gunman walked into a police precinct Sunday afternoon and opened fire with a shotgun, wounding four officers before return gunfire took his life.
After earlier coming into the 6th Precinct on the city's northwest side, a 38-year-old gunman returned in the late afternoon and shot Cmdr. Brian Davis, in charge of the precinct, in the hand and side. Davis underwent surgery Sunday evening, a police source said. He was in critical condition.
Officer David Anderson was shot in the head but was reportedly alert and talking and moving his limbs. Sgt. Ray Saati was also struck, as was an unidentified female sergeant. She was hit in the chest but was wearing a bulletproof vest. She was treated and released.
"Incidents like this are very sobering and remind us how vulnerable we all are," said Police Chief Ralph Godbee during a news conference at Sinai Grace Hospital, where the wounded were taken. "We have a lot of people that are shaken up."
That four were shot at once in Detroit wasn't shocking; that they were all uniformed and armed was. And it capped a weekend during which three bodies were found in an east-side home Friday and five people were shot outside a strip club early Sunday.
The shootings rattled a department that investigates more homicides per capita than almost every other city in the nation.
In every precinct, visitors are not required to pass through a metal detector, nor are they separated by safety glass. The shooting immediately spurred an internal look at safety arrangements at all precincts, Godbee said.
