Group of men shoots at man at gas station, then at Detroit Police

Detroit Police are searching for five men wanted after shots were fired at the same location on two separate occasions on Detroit's east side.

Police said the shooting started with a man near Chalmers and Outer Drive and returned to shoot again once police showed up.

The 46-year-old man said he stopped Saturday night just before 10 at a gas station to grab cigarettes.

"When I went out there were 8 pumps. Each pump had a car on it they were blocking my way," the man said.

He said he doesn't know why the group of men surrounded him or threatened him.

"The only way I got out of there. I just turned all around the building and came over here to save my partner and his girlfriend because I knew what was going on," he said.

He got a block away, to Chalmers and Glenfield, and was standing outside when the same Chevy Impala from moments earlier drove by and shot at him again.

"They shooting on me. It's some bullsh*t, some stupid stuff."

Nobody was hurt and the man called Detroit police. As he was talking with police and filing a report, more gunshots were again fired from a field nearby. 

The man dropped to the ground and, again, nobody was hurt. Police on the scene did not shoot back but the victim cannot believe the men were shooting at police. 

"It's like a criminal - they don't deserve to be on this earth. You are dangerous you know?"

The man, a business owner, says he's seen the men before and believe they could be the same group that broke into his shop.

"They broke in here exactly like a week or maybe 10 days ago." 

Detroit police say the five men on surveillance are being called persons of interest and are asking anyone with information to come forward.

The man who was shot at called the men brainless for shooting at him and police.
