Officers responded to a firearm incident in the 1500 block of Marentette Avenue around 2 p.m.

A suspect had reportedly met with a whistleblower to collect “property,” police said in a press release on Wednesday. When the author was unable to present the property, the suspect pointed a firearm at the author and threatened him.

The suspect fled the area in a light-colored midsize van with a dark-tinted rear window.

The suspect is described as a black male, approximately 40 years old, approximately six feet tall and weighing 160 pounds. She wore dreadlocks and was wearing a matching tan tracksuit with a yellow print.

The complainant and the suspect reportedly knew each other. There were no physical injuries as a result of the incident.

Police are urging anyone with surveillance cameras in the 1500 block of Marenetette Avenue to review their footage for possible evidence.

Anyone with information should contact Windsor Police at 519-255-6700 ext. 4830, or ext. 4000 if you call after hours. If you wish to remain anonymous, please contact Crime Stoppers at 519-258-8477 (TIPS) or catchcrooks.com .
