Windsor police are asking for the public’s help after two separate shooting incidents.

Police responded to a report of shots fired in the 1600 block of Howard Avenue on March 21, just after 9 p.m. Through investigation, officers say they learned that multiple shots were fired at the residence. Several shell casings were located at the scene.

In a second incident on March 21 at 8 p.m., multiple shots were fired at a residence in the 1000 block of Lincoln Road.

No one was physically injured as a result of either incident.

Members of our Major Crimes Unit are investigating and believe both incidents were targeted and may be related. Investigators have since located a photo of a dark SUV in the area of Howard Ave. at the time of the shooting and is considered a vehicle of interest.

Residents with surveillance or dashcam footage – particularly those who live in the 1000 block of Lincoln Rd., the 1600 block of Howard Ave., and the surrounding residential areas – are asked to check for video evidence between 7 p.m. and 10 p.m. on March 21.

Anyone with information is asked to call the Windsor Police Major Crime Unit at 519-255-6700 ext. 4830. They can also contact Windsor & Essex County Crime Stoppers anonymously at 519-258-8477 (TIPS) or online at www.catchcrooks.com.
