Etats-Unis: échange de tirs dans une synagogue du Michigan, opération de police en cours
A shootout between an individual and security guards took place at a synagogue in West Bloomfield, Michigan, where a large-scale law enforcement operation is underway, according to police and the state governor.
"At least one individual showed up at the temple. Security personnel spotted him and a shootout ensued," Oakland County Sheriff Michael Bouchard told CNN.
"For now, no one has been confirmed injured, with the possible exception of the shooter," he added.
"We have been talking for two weeks about the possibility, unfortunately, that this could happen. So there was no lack of preparation," the sheriff added, in an allusion to the armed offensive by the United States and Israel against Iran.
"I am following reports of an ongoing shooting at Temple Israel in West Bloomfield. We are working with the Michigan State Police to obtain more information," Governor Gretchen Whitmer wrote on X.
"It's heartbreaking. The Jewish community in Michigan must be able to live and practice their faith in peace. Anti-Semitism and violence have no place in Michigan," she added.
Videos on social media and the country's television showed a building presented as the Temple Israel synagogue from which black smoke was billowing, and very large police forces mobilized.
Anti-Semitic incidents and attacks have increased in recent years in the United States.
In May 2025, a gunman opened fire outside the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington, killing two members of the Israeli embassy staff.
