Police Say Woman Shot To Death Was Targeted
INKSTER (WWJ) - Police in Inkster suspect foul play in the shooting death of a woman outside of her own home.

When officers arrived, Fields was pronounced dead at the scene from gunshot wounds.

Police do not have anyone in custody at this time.
Anyone with information is asked to contact the Inkster Police Department at 313-563-9850 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-SPEAK UP.
