August 23rd 2025.
On the morning of August 22, tragedy struck when Mario Green entered Henry Ford Hospital and shot his ex-wife, Latricia Green, who was an employee at the hospital. The news of the shooting spread quickly, and the Detroit Police Department immediately launched a manhunt for the suspect, referring to him as a "monster" in their initial statement to the press. Police Chief Todd Bettison expressed gratitude to their law enforcement partners and the community for providing tips that led to the capture of Green.
Bettison also extended his condolences to the family of Latricia Green, stating that no one deserves to go through what she did. The suspect, Mario Green, had been on the run since the fatal shooting, but was finally taken into custody on August 23. The lockdown at the hospital was lifted and the community could breathe a sigh of relief.
Details of the shooting emerged, with witnesses reporting that Mario Green had entered the hospital claiming to drop off some of Latricia's belongings. However, when she asked him to leave, an argument ensued and he pulled out a gun, shooting her. Latricia's family, including cousin Deantjuan Jones, were still in shock and struggling to come to terms with her death. Jones described her as a sweet person who did not deserve such a tragic end.
It was revealed that Latricia had previously sought a protective order against Mario, citing his repeated attempts to contact her at work and his aggressive behavior. However, the police had denied her request. She had even filed another request just a month before her death, pleading for help and expressing her fear for her safety. Despite her efforts, it was too late and the protection order was not served in time to prevent the tragic outcome.
Latricia's cousin, Rodney Hickman, shared that her ex-husband's behavior had escalated recently, with her filing multiple police reports. The news of her death has left her loved ones devastated and the hospital where she worked has also released a statement expressing their shock and grief. They confirmed that the shooting was a targeted act of domestic violence and are cooperating with the police investigation. They are also providing support and resources to their team members who have been impacted by the tragedy.
In the wake of this heartbreaking incident, it is important to recognize the warning signs of domestic violence and take action to protect victims. As Olympic runner Gabby Thomas recently shared, she fears potential stalkers and urges everyone to take such threats seriously. Let us all work towards creating a safer and more supportive environment for victims of domestic violence.
