Deputies were called to Roemer's home around 6:30 a.m. on a report that an armed person was present and two shots had been fired. The caller had left the home and contacted the Juneau County Sheriff’s Office from a nearby residence, according to police. “It appears to be related to the judicial system,” he said. “At this point, we are not aware of any evidence indicating that there is any active danger to other individuals. Those who may have been other targets have been notified of that.”
“Governor Whitmer has demonstrated repeatedly that she is tough, and she will not be bullied or intimidated from doing her job and working across the aisle to get things done for the people of Michigan,” her office said in a statement.
