(CBS DETROIT) – Authorities say the brother of U.S. Rep. Dan Kildee was killed in a shooting early Tuesday morning.

In a press conference, Genesee County Sheriff Chris Swanson said Timothy Kildee, 57, was reportedly shot at his home following an alleged argument with a family member believed to be his 27-year-old son. The suspect, whose name was not immediately released, was taken into custody.

Swanson said he notified Dan Kildee, who was in Washington, D.C., and is traveling back to Michigan.

The series of events began at about 2:50 a.m. when the police were called for a domestic dispute where a gun was shown in the 3500 block of Columbine Avenue in Burton. An investigation revealed that the 27-year-old left the home and contacted his mother. 

The woman, who he described as Timothy Kildee’s ex-wife, picked up the suspect and was driving him to his father’s house on Neff Road in Vienna Township when he jumped out of the car.

The woman called Kildee to help search for the man.

Kildee’s other son, who was at the home in the basement at the time, reported hearing his father coming back to the house and then a “yelling match” between Kildee and the family member. Swanson said prior to the shooting, the suspect allegedly demanded the victim’s wallet and keys. The wallet was later found with the suspect.

The son then reported hearing one shot, which is believed to have killed Timothy Kildee.

Swanson said the 27-year-old took Kildee’s truck and fled the home at high speed, crashing into another car minutes later in Genesee Township. He was taken to a hospital for treatment.

Swanson said the son is under police watch at the hospital.

An investigation is ongoing.

Genesee County Prosecutor David Leyton said the suspect could face multiple charges, including open murder, armed robbery and carjacking.
