Our rating: False
Based on our research, we rate FALSE the claim that Queen Elizabeth II was shot dead in Detroit. The queen had been suffering health issues and died peacefully in Scotland. Her last visit to the U.S. was in 2007, and no news reports indicate she visited Detroit.
It's hard to believe that MSN would fact check it.
