Oakland County Sheriff’s deputy fatally shot in ‘ambush’ while following stolen car
A deputy investigating a stolen car was shot to death Saturday night in Detroit in what Oakland County Sheriff Michael Bouchard called an ambush.
Oakland County Sheriff’s Deputy Bradley Reckling, a detective, was following a stolen vehicle when several individuals exited the vehicle and shot Reckling in the head and chest, according to the agency’s preliminary investigation.
Reckling was following the 2022 Chevy Equinox after it was reported stolen earlier in the day from Red Oaks Waterpark in Madison Heights, Bouchard said at a Sunday news conference.
The sheriff office’s auto theft unit was looped in to look for the Equinox. Reckling was actively searching for and located the vehicle in Detroit and followed it in an unmarked vehicle. Two other detectives were nearby in their own vehicles.
The Equinox eventually stopped, individuals exited the vehicle and fired upon Reckling,” Bouchard said.
“It was an ambush,” Bouchard said.
