One man was hurt and then arrested after a shooting at a Holly Township home, the Michigan State Police reported.
The incident occurred Sunday night on the 11000 block of Dixie Highway.
Police reported that a man had invited a friend over, who arrived to the home intoxicated.
"Later in the evening an argument occurred on the back porch of the home after the visitor was asked to leave," the state police tweeted. "During the argument, the visitor pulled a knife and went towards the homeowner who was in possession of a registered pistol at the time."
The homeowner, who police said had a concealed pistol license, fired a single shot, which struck the other man. Both men called 911 at about 10:30 p.m. Sunday.
The injured man was taken to a hospital for treatment. The homeowner was not hurt.
"A records check of the visitor revealed a felony warrant for OWI 3rd and a aggravated domestic violence warrant," the state police reported. "He was turned over to Oakland County Sheriff."
The investigation into the shooting was continuing, and results were to be sent to the Oakland County Prosecutor's Office for review.
