Prosecutor Kym Worthy has charged Alvin Noble,17, of Detroit in connection with the non-fatal shootings of two 18-year-old girls, a six-year-old girl, and a two-year-old boy, all of Detroit. Defendant Noble is being prosecuted as an adult in this case.

On May 1, 2024, at approximately 8:57 p.m., Detroit police officers were dispatched to a park in the area of Faust and Westfield for a reported shooting. Upon their arrival, officers located the first 18-year-old female victim, lying face down on the ground, suffering from a gunshot wound to the head, the second 18-year-old female victim suffering from a gunshot wound to the back, the six-year-old female victim suffering from a gunshot wound to the left leg, and the two-year-old male victim with a gunshot wound to the buttocks area. Medics arrived on the scene and transported the first 18-year-old female victim and the two-year-old male victim to a local hospital for treatment. The second 18-year-old female victim and the six-year-old female victim were privately transported to a local hospital for treatment.

It is alleged that a physical altercation between the first 18-year-old female victim and an unidentified woman escalated, and Defendant Noble produced and fired a handgun multiple times, non-fatally injuring the victims. The remaining three victims were innocent bystanders who had no involvement in the altercation.

Alvin Noble has been charged with four counts of Assault with Intent to Murder, four counts of Assault with Intent to do Great Bodily Harm, one count of Carrying a Weapon with Unlawful Intent, one count of Carrying a Concealed Weapon, and nine counts of Felony Firearm.*

"This case is especially alarming because we are at the beginning of the season where our citizens, young and older, start enjoying the warmer weather in our city parks. Then a fight, a phone call, and a gun completely devastated a wonderful community gathering," said Prosecutor Kym Worthy.

He was arraigned this afternoon in 36th District Court before Magistrate Malaika Ramsey-Heath and given a $500,000 cash bond with a GPS tether and house arrest if he makes bond. A bond redetermination hearing is scheduled for May 13, 2024, at 9:00 a.m., before Judge William McConico. The Probable Cause Conference is scheduled for May 16, 2024, at 8:30 a.m., and the Preliminary Examination is scheduled for May 23, at 8:45 a.m., before Judge Patricia Jefferson.
