Red: Fatal · Blue: Non-fatal · Yellow: Critical condition

Shortly after midnight last month, bullets sprayed through a northeast Detroit home, striking three girls, ages 11, 13 and 23.

A week later, an 82-year-old man was shot while stopped at a red light.

And a 27-year-old man at a prayer vigil to end the bloodshed was gunned down and killed.

In all, more than 125 people were shot in June in Detroit, incident reports show. At least 13 of those shootings were fatal.

No area of the city was spared, including downtown, but shootings on the west side continue to increase.
