Aretha Franklin’s son Eddie has checked himself out of a hospital, days after being brutally beaten to the point where he needed surgery. As previously reported on Singersroom, 52-year-old Eddie was attacked at a Detroit gas station by three people, two men and a woman, near Plymouth and Evergreen on the cityâs northwest side on Monday night, September 20. Eddie was accompanied by a female, who was inside at the time of attack. After noticing Eddie lying in a pool of blood, she immediately drove him to a hospital, where doctors reportedly operated. According to some sources, the female suspect appeared to be about 19 years old, and one of the men had dreadlocks. All three were African American. Police officials in Detroit, Michigan have requested Eddie to come forward and make a formal report of the assault. “We’re waiting for him to file a police report,” Detroit Police Sgt. Eren Stephens said. “When our officers went to talk to him at the hospital, he had already checked himself out and left.” There are no security cameras at the gas station that would help police investigate the case. “We have nothing at all,” Stephens said.
Aretha Franklin, the Queen of Soul, passed away on August 16th after a long battle with pancreatic cancer. Her death has left her family and fans in mourning. Now, one of her sons is facing further tragedy: he was recently hospitalized due to an undisclosed medical issue. He’s now been released from the hospital, but cops are wanting to speak with him about it. Here’s what we know so far about this developing situation.
Aretha Franklin’s son Edward “Eddie” Franklin checked into a Detroit area hospital last week for treatment that remains unknown at this time. It was reported by People Magazine that Eddie had suffered some sort of incident while at home which prompted his admittance to the hospital. On Tuesday morning, however, he was released from care and allowed to return home.
Unfortunately though, local authorities have not yet closed their investigation into the matter and they want to talk with him soon regarding his health scare. The severity of the incident still remains unclear as no official statement has been made by either Aretha Franklin’s family or representatives from the police department investigating this case.
Overview Of Events
Aretha Franklin’s son, Kecalf Cunningham, has been discharged from the hospital following a health scare. He was taken to the hospital on Sunday after police were called for an incident at his home in Detroit.
Cunningham is now out of the hospital and safe; however, police are still trying to determine what happened and have asked him to submit to an interview. Police said they responded to a call about an altercation between two men at Cunningham’s house but did not release any further information regarding details or who else may have been present.
At this time, it is unclear why officers want to speak with Cunningham or if he will agree to their request. Whatever happens next remains uncertain as authorities continue their investigation into the matter.
Latest Developments
The latest developments in the investigation surrounding Aretha Franklin’s son, Kecalf Cunningham, have been slow to emerge. Detroit police are still seeking an interview with him after responding to a call at his residence on Sunday involving two men. There has yet to be any concrete information released regarding what happened or who else was present during the incident.
At this time, it is unclear if Cunningham will agree to speak with authorities and explain himself. If he does submit to questioning, then there may be further details revealed about what transpired that day. On the other hand, should he decline their request for an interview then the case could remain unsolved without any more answers being provided as to why police were called in the first place.
For now, all we can do is wait until more information becomes available from either side of this situation. However long this process takes remains to be seen but hopefully some clarity will come soon so everyone involved can move forward and put this behind them.
