TOWN DETROIT LOCAL FOR NEWS AT FIVE STARTS NOW. THEY WERE FRANTICALLY TRYING TO GET OUT
AND GET TO SAFETY. BUT THE CLERK
DIDN’T UNLOCK THE DOOR. NEW
VIDEO SHOWS THE TERRIFYING
MOMENTS BEFORE THREE PEOPLE WERE
SHOT INSIDE A DETROIT GAS
STATION. POLICE SAY THE ARGUMENT
BETWEEN A CUSTOMER AND A GAS
STATION CLERK LED HIM TO SHOOT
THREE RANDOM CUSTOMERS. THANKS
FOR BEING WITH US. I’M KIMBERLY
GIL EVANS KILLIAN. THE ARGUMENT
WAS ALLEGEDLY OVER FOUR. DOLLARS
AND AS IT ESCALATED, THE CLERK
HIT A BUTTON LOCKING THE DOORS,
BUT THAT LEFT THREE OTHER
CUSTOMERS WITH NO WAY OUT AND
SHORTLY AFTER BULLETS WERE
FLYING, LEAVING ONE PERSON DEAD
, TWO OTHERS WOUNDED SEAN LAY.
THE BIG QUESTION HERE IS WHETHER
THE CLERK BEARS ANY KIND OF
RESPONSIBILITY. GOOD EVENING,
DEVIN. THAT CLERK HAS NOT BEEN
ARRESTED. THE CLERK HAS NOT BEEN
CHARGED, BUT WE CAN ONLY SHOW
YOU JUST A LITTLE BIT OF THIS
VIDEO FROM INSIDE THE GAS
STATION. IT IS JUST SO DIFFICULT
TO WATCH. THERE WAS NOWHERE FOR
THREE CUSTOMERS TO GO. THEY WERE
TRAPPED WHEN THAT CLERK LOCKED
THE DOOR, LOCKING THEM IN WITH
THE GUNMAN. WE HAVE THE LEGAL
EXPERT ABOUT THE CLERKS ACTIONS.
APART FROM THE LEGAL COMPONENT,
I’M GOING TO TELL YOU IT’S ALSO
JUST SO INHUMANE. I MEAN, APART
FROM JUST THE LEGAL ASPECT, IT’S
JUST INHUMANE. LOCAL FOR LEGAL
ANALYST NEIL ROCKIN, REACTING TO
THE DEADLY SHOOTING THAT TOOK
PLACE INSIDE THIS WESTSIDE GAS
STATION, MAY 6TH PROSECUTORS SAY
THE CLERK BEHIND PROTECTIVE
GLASS ARGUED WITH THE MAN OVER
$4 WORTH OF ITEMS, THE CLERK HAS
THE ABILITY TO LOCK THE STORE’S
DOOR AND HE DID. POLICE SAY THE
MAN ARGUING WITH THE CLERK IS
ANTHONY MCCRAY. MCRAE WAS LOCKED
IN THE SIDE THE STORE WITH THREE
INNOCENT CUSTOMERS. PROSECUTORS
SAY MCRAE MAKES IT CLEAR THAT IF
THE CLERK DOES NOT UNLOCK THE
DOOR, HE WILL SHOOT THE THREE
INNOCENT CUSTOMERS. WE CAN ONLY
SHOW YOU A MOMENT OF THE
CHILLING SECURITY CAMERA VIDEO
OF THE CUSTOMERS BEGGING THAT
CLERK TO LET THEM OUT. BUT THE
DOOR REMAINS LOCKED. THE THREE
CUSTOMERS ARE SHOT 1 37 YEAR OLD
GREGORY KELLY IS KILLED. MCRAE
IS CHARGED WITH MURDER AND
ATTEMPTED MURDER. COULD THE
CLERK BE ARRESTED AND CHARGED
LOTS OF THOSE PEOPLE IN AS
THEY’RE BEGGING TO GET OUT,
LOCKED HIM IN WITH SOMETHING
THAT HE KNEW OR SHOULD HAVE
KNOWN WAS LIFE THREATENING. AND
AS IT TURNS OUT, IT WAS THAT
CLERKS GOT REAL LIABILITY.
POTENTIALLY IN CRIMINAL COURT,
BUT ALSO IN CIVIL COURT. THEY’RE
BEING ON THE DOOR TO LET THEM
OUT. YEAH, IT’S UNCONSCIONABLE.
ALRIGHT BACK YOUR LIFE AGAIN.
THE VIDEO IS SO DISTURBING, BUT
ALL THREE MEN, THE INNOCENT
CUSTOMERS ARE AT THE GLASS HAD
TO REGISTER ASKING THE CLERK TO
LET THEM OUT. THE GUNMAN IS
RIGHT THERE. EVENTUALLY THE
GOVERNMENT OPENS FIRE AT POINT
BLANK RANGE REALLY DIFFICULT
STUFF HERE BUT AGAIN CLERK IS
NOT CHARGED, HAS NOT BEEN
ARRESTED. WE ASKED POLICE
SPECIFICALLY ABOUT THE CLERK,
THEY SAID EVERYTHING REMAINS
UNDER INVESTIGATION. DEVIN I
ASKED WAYNE COUNTY PROSECUTOR’S
OFFICE. THEY’RE EXPECTING A
WARRANT. IT’S FOCUSED ON THE
CLERK. THEY’VE GOTTEN BACK TO US
. I’LL LET YOU KNOW WHEN THEY DO
BACK TO YOU. THERE IS SO MUCH TO
THE SEAN AND YOU YOU TALKED WITH
ONE OF THE CUSTOMERS WHO WAS
SHOT IN FACT, SHOT THREE TIMES
BUT SURVIVED IT. SHOT THREE
TIMES RIGHT NEXT TO HIM, HIS
BEST FRIEND GUNNED DOWN. IT’S
ABSOLUTELY BRUTAL. OF COURSE. HE
BLAMES THE GUNMAN. BUT TONIGHT
HE ALSO BLAMES THAT CLERK.
ALRIGHT SEAN, OUR OTHER TOP
STORY TODAY AT FIVE. SOUTH
FIELDS CHIEF REFUTING CLAIMS OF
POLICE BRUTALITY IT COMES AS
VIDEO POSTED ONLINE IS PICKING
UP STEAM ON SOCIAL MEDIA WOODS
LIFE TONIGHT WITH THE VIDEO AND
WITH THE CHIEF IS SAYING ABOUT
IT, MEGAN KIMBERLY 27 YEAR OLD
CLINT WILLIS IS NOW PARALYZED
FROM THE NECK DOWN AND POLICE
SOUTHFIELD POLICE ARE SAYING
THAT HE DID THAT TO HIMSELF. HE
ALSO HARMED A POLICE OFFICER AND
THEN HIS FAMILY. WE SPOKE TO
THEM. THEY DIDN’T WANT TO GO ON
CAMERA, BUT A LAWSUIT HAS BEEN
FILED AND THEY SAY CLINCH
SHOULDN’T HAVE BEEN ABLE TO HARM
HIMSELF IN THE FIRST PLACE. TAKE
A LOOK. KIND OF TAKE YOUR HANDS
OUT OF POCKET. ONE THIS IS JUST
ONE OF THE MULTIPLE BODY CAMS
RECORDING AROUND EIGHT A.M.
APRIL. 5TH POLICE SAY IT
INITIALLY CAME IN AS A DOMESTIC
VIOLENCE CALL CALLERS FROM THE
FAMILY. I SUGGESTED THAT THE
SUSPECT NAME OF MR CLINTON
WILLIS. HAD ASSAULTED HIS
ELDERLY MOTHER, RENDERING HER
UNCONSCIOUS, ALSO SAYS THE
SECOND CALL CAME IN ABOUT
CLINTON, DAMAGING A VEHICLE TO
FAMILY TELLS US THEY CALLED TO
HELP CLINT WITH A MENTAL HEALTH
CRISIS DURING THIS ALTERCATION,
STRUCK AN OFFICER IN THE HEAD
NEAR HER EYE. YOU KNOW, I GOT
IT. I GOT IT. TAKE CARE OF YOUR
LIFE IS THEN PINNED DOWN IN CUPS
. YOU CAN HEAR HIM MUMBLING TO
HIMSELF. HE’S THEN TAKEN TO THE
JAIL INSIDE SOUTHFIELD POLICE
DEPARTMENT VIDEO IS NOT FLYABLE.
AND SO ME WANTING TO BE VERY
TRANSPARENT AS ALWAYS SOUND.
CLINT IS WITHOUT CUFFS AS
CONTRACTED STAFF FROM ALLIED
UNIVERSAL TRYING TO GET HIM INTO
A HOLDING CELL. BUT WHEN HE
DOESN’T WANT TO GO, THAT’S WHEN
THINGS TAKE A TURN IN THE VIDEO
. HE GOES TO THE REAR OF THE
CELL. AND THEN RUNS A HEADFIRST
INTO THE GLASS WAR. ATTORNEYS
SAY HE HAD A BROKEN NECK AND
NEEDED EMERGENCY SURGERY. HE IS
NOW PARALYZED FROM THE NECK DOWN
AND IN A REHABILITATION FACILITY
WANTED THE FAMILY TO HAVE THE
INFORMATION BECAUSE THEY WERE
FUNCTIONING OFF OF WHAT THEY
WERE TOLD. AND WHILE CLINTON IS
RECOVERING, HE’S FACING MULTIPLE
CHARGES AND HIS FAMILY FEEL LIKE
THERE WAS NEGLIGENCE, A LACK OF
COMPASSION AND THEY WANT AN
OUTSIDE AGENCY OR ORGANIZATION
TO DO AN INVESTIGATION AND THIS
WEEKEND ON SUNDAY, THE ATTORNEYS
WILL HAVE A PRESS CONFERENCE IN
FRONT OF THE POLICE DEPARTMENT.
LIVE IN SOUTHFIELD. I’M MEGAN
WOODS. LOCAL FOUR WILL BE
COVERING THAT. ALRIGHT MEGAN.
