Detroit Police Chief James Craig is expected to hold a news conference this morning about the barbershop shooting on the city’s east side that killed at least three and wounded seven more Wednesday night.
“It’ll be a time to clear up a lot of confusion of what happened last night,” Detroit Police Sgt. Michael Woody said at 6:30 a.m. today.
Woody told the Associated Press today that a third person died at a hospital, but he didn't immediately have additional details..
Investigators were searching for men driving two Chevrolet Impalas – one white, one black – involved in the shootout along 7 Mile Road between Mound and Ryan at about 6 p.m. Investigators said a shootout between the cars’ occupants in an alley behind the building spilled over into the barbershop. People fled for cover at neighboring businesses.
Police said the barbershop is known for gambling, and a dice game was taking place when the gunfire broke out. But a motive behind the shooting wasn’t clear.
The department did not release additional information about the investigation this morning.

Staff writers Gina Damron, Ann Zaniewski and Elisha Anderson and the Associated Press contributed to this report
