Trio Nabbed In Deadly West Detroit Dispensary Ambush
Three men are in custody following a failed robbery at an illegal dispensary on Detroit’s west side that resulted in a double fatal shooting. The incident occurred on November 10, 2025, in the 2900 block of Puritan Avenue, near the Livernois and Linwood corridors. Both victims were transported to a hospital, where they later died. Authorities say the suspects fled Michigan almost immediately after the attack but were tracked down in other states and extradited back to Detroit this week.
Detroit police have identified the suspects as Ronnie Grable III, Maurice Harris, and Jalen Able. Investigators report that the men entered the unlicensed storefront, opened fire, stole items from the business, and then left. Following an extensive investigation, police and prosecutors coordinated to capture the suspects in different states and return them to Wayne County. Each man now faces two counts of felony murder, two counts of first-degree murder, and four counts of felony firearm, according to local reports.
Court Proceedings
Public records from Detroit’s 36th District Court show that criminal cases for Grable, Harris, and Able were filed earlier this year. Entries include probable cause and pretrial notes, moving the cases onto the local criminal calendar. Case numbers and hearing dates were scheduled in February, reflecting the formal filing of charges. The 36th District Court docket is publicly accessible online.
Extradition and Ongoing Investigation
Detroit police confirmed that all three men were arrested in separate states and transported back to Michigan, part of a multi-jurisdictional effort to close the case. Authorities have not released detailed timelines for the arrests, and the broader investigation remains active.
Next Steps
Court documents show that probable cause and pretrial hearings are scheduled locally. Prosecutors and defense attorneys will now work through arraignment and additional hearings in Wayne County. If convicted, the suspects could face decades in prison for the murder charges, with the felony firearm convictions adding mandatory extra time under Michigan law. Details on filings, case numbers, and upcoming court appearances are available through the 36th District Court docket.
