More information on the search for Andrew Myrick and the shooting

A few updates to this very fluid situation:

*The victim in this shooting (who, according to police, broke into Myrick's duplex--and obviously didn't anticipate AK47 type firepower) is David Issac Copeland, 29, of Ypsilanti.

*Police now believe FOUR men showed up at Myrick's duplex to rob him. The late Mr. Copeland, two men who fled but were later apprehended and a man still on the run, as is Mr. Myrick.

*Police are still looking for Michael Don Bailey, 20, of Ypsilanti Township. He is described as a light-skinned black man with brown hair and brown eyes, 5-foot-10 and 165 pounds.

*Police suspect they four showed up to steal either drugs or money

*One of the suspects hid in a closet when the shooting began and later fled

*Anyone with information is asked to call Detective Dave Monroe at 734-996-3281 or the tip line at 734-996-3199.
