Detroit Police confirmed that two individuals were arrested on Saturday at around 5 a.m. after shots were fired at the window of the Guardian Building at 500 Griswold Street. 

The two people were in a car that matched the description of a car that shots were fired from on Friday at the Coleman A Young Building as well. Police haven't confirmed that the two shootings are connected though. 

Police said the two adults were seen in a vehicle outside the Guardian Building that matched the description of the vehicle in the shooting at the Coleman A Municipal Center on Friday.

Additional details were not released.

The backstory:

Detroit police say shots were fired outside at the Coleman A. Young Municipal Building off Jefferson downtown just before 5 a.m. Friday morning. That timing matches up with the Saturday shooting at the Guardian Building.

DPD said the suspects who fired at six windows on the building's south side in a drive-by from a gray sedan, circled back and fired an additional shot, hitting a window on the north side.

A pellet gun is believed to have been used in Friday's shooting. Police didn't say what type of gun they thought was used in the Saturday shooting. 

The Source: Information for this report came from the Detroit Police Department on Saturday, with background information coming from a DPD press conference held Friday.
