Shots Fired on Michigan Repo Agent

Isabella County, MI – October 23, 2024 – It was in broad daylight on a rural country road when the Repossessor showed up to repossess a vehicle. With no one emerging from the residence, he failed to notice the armed man on a tractor coming up on him.

According to the Isabella County Sheriff’s Office, an unnamed repo man in a tow truck went to a rural country residence on the 5000 block of South Lincoln Road in Union Township at around 11:30 am to repossess a vehicle.

That’s when police say a 29-year-old suspect pulled out a handgun and began firing shots at the Repossessor from a tractor he was operating on the roadway.

Fortunately, the agent was not hit and did not report any injuries.

As fate would have it, a detective and deputy were just across the road on an unrelated call and were quick to apprehend the suspect inside his home. They quickly located the firearm and several spent shell casings found at the scene.

While the agent emerged from the incident reportedly unscathed, Investigators took the suspect to an area hospital for treatment of a minor injury sustained when he allegedly pounded his head against a plastic divider inside a police patrol car.

The suspect was then transported to the Isabella County Jail where he awaits arraignment on charges of assault with intent to murder and assault with a dangerous weapon. The suspect’s name was not released Wednesday because he had not yet been arraigned.
