DETROIT, MI (WKZO AM/FM) – The death of a 66-year-old man is sparking the hunt for ex-Michigan State University basketball star Keith Appling.
According to a Detroit Police report, officers arrived at a home on Detroit’s west side Saturday evening and found a black revolver lying on the front lawn, feet away from a green Michigan State University ball cap. The discovery kicked off the now ongoing manhunt for the former MSU basketball star, who allegedly fatally shot a relative on the front lawn while visiting and dropped the pistol after another relative wrestled it away from him.
Detroit police say Appling fled in a newer model tan Buick Regal. The search is still underway and officials warn that he is considered armed and dangerous.
