OSHTEMO TOWNSHIP, Mich. (WOOD) - One person died and another critically wounded after a Sunday shooting in Oshtemo Township. Police have identified a 24-year-old man as the suspected shooter.

Four people in a black car with silver rims drove into the Village Square Apartments on S. Ninth Street around 6:10 p.m, the Kalamazoo County Sheriff's Department said.

Authorities said they think the people in the car and the victims knew each other.

An argument between someone in the car and the victims began Saturday, police believe, that escalated and continued until one person from the car fired a gun on Sunday.

Then, authorities said, the four people -- including the shooter -- fled in the vehicle.

Brian Eshun Tolson, 19, died from a gunshot wound to the chest, and Jerrad C. Boothe, 24, was critically wounded. He's in Bronson Hospital.

Investigators are looking for Marcus Robinson, who is considered armed and extremely dangerous. The other people in the car have not yet been identified.

If you have any information, you're asked to contact 911 or Silent Observer.
