Detroit police are asking for the public's help identifying a suspect in the case of a 45-year-old man who was fatally shot on the city's west side Saturday.

According to a release, a man was fatally shot at about 8:50 p.m. Saturday after an argument inside a local business in the area of West McNichols and Greenfield Road.

The release said that the victim was seen leaving the business, returned with a gun and allegedly pointed it at the suspect.

Police added that the victim and suspect fought over the weapon until the suspect wrestled the gun away. The victim then fell to the ground and the suspect allegedly fired one shot and struck the victim.

Police said the suspect then fled on foot southbound on Greenfield Road, and the victim was transported by medics to an area hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

Police shared images of a man who is believed to be the suspect.

The photos show a bearded man wearing a hat, and police are asking anyone who recognizes the man or has any information related to the incident to contact the Detroit Police Department Homicide Unit at 313-596-2260, or CRIMESTOPPERS at 1-800-SPEAK-UP.
