New details emerge in synagogue attack in Michigan

The suspect who rammed his vehicle into a Detroit-area synagogue was killed by a security guard, and his vehicle apparently caught fire from reported explosives inside. The armed suspect had a rifle and reportedly drove his car through the doors at the location into a hallway, said Sheriff Michael Bouchard of Oakland County, Michigan. His name was not immediately released. Multiple security guards were at the location during the incident, Bouchard said. One of the security guards was hospitalized with injuries after he was hit by the vehicle. He was expected to recover. No other injuries were reported. “Something ignited in the vehicle,” Bouchard said. The sheriff added that bomb squad investigators were wearing gas masks, looking for other explosive devices or improvised explosive devices, and sent dogs to check the area. Smoke was rising from the location as law enforcement was responding to the area and clearing the fire.”I’m told by law enforcement source that the suspected shooter at the Michigan synagogue was armed with a rifle, rammed a vehicle into the building and was killed in shootout w/ armed security. I’m told vehicle caught on fire and the suspect’s body is burned. No ID yet,” Fox News correspondent Bill Melugin wrote on X.
