Police responded to an accident overnight at the Kalamazoo County Meijer, when they were told a customer defended off a criminal who assaulted fellow customers and employees after committing some sort of crime, according to Fox 17. It all occurred at the Meijer on West Main Street in Oshtemo Township at about 1:30 A.M. according to police. Once the armed customer saw the criminal assault other customers and employees, that's when they pull out their gun and fired at the fleeing suspect, who disappeared from the scene of the crime.

Deputies are saying that they don't believe neither the criminal nor any customers or employees were hit by any stray bullets. The suspect is described to be a black male, about 5 foot 8, and was last seen wearing a green and grey sweater, sweatpants, and ball cap. If you know anything and have any information, call the Kalamazoo County Sheriff's Office at 269-383-8748 or Silent Observer at 269-343-2100.
