MCC and UDM partner to offer nursing completion program BY MARIA ALLARD allard@candgnews.com
CLINTON TOWNSHIP — Macomb Community College is expanding its nursing program through a partnership with University of Detroit Mercy. On Oct. 2, a ceremony was held on the Center Campus of Macomb Community College to announce the two schools are partnering to offer a Bachelor of Science in Nursing, or BSN, program in Macomb County.

CMPL Main Library turns 20 CLINTON TOWNSHIP — In the words of Clinton-Macomb Public Library Director Larry Neal, where did the time go? The multi-township library’s main building at Romeo Plank and Canal roads turns 20 years old this October. “Overall, it’s definitely a reason to celebrate,” said Neal, who came to the CMPL system as the main library was being designed. “We are now, with 20 years under our belt for the main building, seeing generations of families come to the library, so that’s one of our great joys for
many of the staff members who have also been here for most if not all of that time.” Beginning in 1992 as a partnership between Clinton Township and Chippewa Valley Schools, today’s CMPL formed when Macomb Township replaced Chippewa Valley as a partner in 1997. Throughout its first decade, the library was based in a shopping center at Garfield and 19 Mile roads. Everything changed for the CMPL in 1998 when voters approved a proposal to create a permanent, purpose-built library and establish satellite branches in Macomb Township and southern Clinton Township. The Library Board began touring the country for libraries to See LIBRARY on page 14A

CLINTON TOWNSHIP — The topic of elections was high on the minds of Clinton Township trustees in early October, especially with the Board of Trustees voting to buy new election software and equipment at its Oct. 2 meeting.
Developed by Minnesota-based Modus Elections Software, the products purchased by the township are focused on streamlining and easing the setup and tracking of election workers and equipment. “Elections planning and implementation has always been a huge undertaking. However, with the implementation of Proposition 2018-3 and

FRASER — The Fraser Public Library is spreading the word that it is back up and running at its new temporary site and offering some great programs for fall. The library was forced to move its programming and as much of its collection as possible to the temporary site after a vehicle crashed through a wall at the main library building in May. They began offering services once more by September. “It’s great to see people coming back now that we’re open again,” said Kristen Getzin, the programming and youth services librarian. “They started work a couple of weeks ago on the main building, but I don’t know what exactly they are doing because the city isn’t keeping us in the loop on that. So, that means we don’t know exactly how long it’s going to take until we can move back in. They gave us a nine-month timeframe, but that could get extended longer because it was a structural wall that got damaged and that could lead to complications.” The temporary location is located at two addresses that share the same parking lot: 15260 15 Mile Road and 15240 15 Mile Road. “One side has the computers, programming space and study space, and the other half has all of the books, CDs and DVDs,” Getzin said. “If anyone

Logjams cleared in Clinton River MACOMB COUNTY — Approximately 70 tons of logs were removed from the Clinton River in six different locations by the Macomb County Public Works Office over the summer and early fall. Funded with $100,000 from the Macomb County Board of Commissioners, removing the logs helps reduce erosion and prevent localized flooding. Since June, logs have been removed from locations in Clinton Township (George George Park, Budd Park, Canal Park and the Moravian Road bridge) and Mount Clemens (Shadyside Park and the Grand Trunk Railroad bridge). Deputies from the Macomb County Sheriff’s Office Marine Division helped remove logs near the mouth of the Clinton River. “Working to remove this debris will make a large impact on our people in the community — less flooding, more people being able to get out on the river and enjoy it,” said Macomb County Commissioner Antoinette Wallace in a statement from the public works office. “Stuff like this has Photo provided by Macomb County Public Works to come out, so everyone and everything can enjoy the river, and we have to keep it from getting Approximately 70 tons of logs have been removed from the Clinton River in Macomb to Lake St. Clair. This is very important work.” County under a project directed by the Macomb County Public Works Office.
Vote called Clinton Twp. board vacancy
CLINTON TOWNSHIP — After failing to appoint an applicant to fill the seat vacated by Joie West, the question of who will finish out West’s term on the Clinton Township Board of Trustees will have to wait until next year. Called by Macomb County Clerk Anthony Forlini on Sept. 19, the open board seat will be decided by a special election held during the 2024 presidential primary election. The winner of the election will serve from the day following the election until the November 2024 general election. While there are separate ballots for the Democratic and Republican Party primaries, voters will be free to vote for a candidate of any party despite their chosen primary. Along with either county-level party running a candidate, Clinton Township Clerk Kim Meltzer says a Libertarian Party candidate has registered. While the filing deadline for party-affiliated candidates passed on Oct. 4, nonaffiliated candidates have until Nov. 24 at the earliest to file with the Clinton Township clerk’s office. The Nov. 24 deadline assumes a primary election date of Feb. 27, 2024. Should the primary fall on March 12, 2024, the registration deadline would be pushed back to Dec. 13.

Steffens Park to host fundraiser for mental health nonprofit BY BRENDAN LOSINSKI blosinski@candgnews.com
FRASER — The city of Fraser will host a fundraiser to support the Know Resolve nonprofit and its mission of raising awareness of mental health issues. The event will take place from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 14, in Steffens Park, 33000 Garfield Road. Jake Rice, a member of the Fraser Recreation Commission, is helping organize it. “We’re working with a nonprofit called Know Resolve. They focus on teen suicide, mental health and grieving support for families,” he said. “This is my first ever fundraiser I’ve ever put together. I’m a commissioner with parks and rec in Fraser. Growing up, I lost my dad in high school. I dealt with mental health issues as a kid. When I was younger, I went to Know Resolve classes, so this is sort of full circle for me. I started coaching basketball at Fraser High School and I saw they didn’t have anyone to talk to even though they have things going on in their life, so it inspired me to do something.” Know Resolve, which serves teens in Macomb County, promotes programs in schools and operates programs where teens can come and seek advice or simply socialize away from pressures they may be feeling from friends, family and school. “Suicide still has a really high rate among teenagers. There needs to be an area where they can be themselves and not have adults telling them how they should act or respond to something. It’s about what they need, not what we think they need,” said NichSee MENTAL HEALTH on page 7A

Proceeds from a fundraiser on Saturday, Oct. 14, at Steffens Park in Fraser, will benefit the Know Resolve nonprofit, which helps teens with mental health matters.

SOCIAL SECURITY AND RETIREMENT SPECIALISTS
‘THE WEAPONRY TO PERPETRATE BULLYING CUTS A WIDER AND DEEPER SWATH’ BY MARY GENSON mgenson@candgnews.com
W
hen parents find out that their kid is being bullied, or that their kid is the bully, it can be a shock. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, about one in five high schoolers have reported being bullied at school. There are signs victims may show that parents should look out for, as well as strategies to help rebuild their self-confidence. Jodee Blanco is a survivor-turned activist and the author of the New York Times bestseller “Please stop laughing at me: One woman’s inspirational story.” She recently spoke at Brother Rice High School, and while she was there, she observed the challenging yet nurturing culture that the school has achieved. “It was one of the most powerful experiences at a school I’ve ever had,” she said. Blanco shared that while bullying has not changed since she was in school, bullies now have new ways to carry out this behavior against their victims. With social media, kids no longer have to spread rumors in person. Now, they can do the damage hiding behind a screen. “The weaponry to perpetrate bullying cuts a wider and deeper swath, but the impulse of what creates that kind of cruelty remains the same,” Blanco said.
Parenting a victim
Lisa Khoury is a school psychologist in the Grosse Pointe Public School System and is in private practice at Associated Psychologists in St. Clair Shores. Khoury said that sometimes the first sign parents may notice in their child who is being bullied is social isolation. Changes in friends or social activity may be due to a child wanting to avoid the bullies, or it could be because they were not invited. Blanco said that it is important to understand that sometimes the more subtle kind of bullying can be the most hurtful. “Bullying isn’t just the mean things we do. It’s all the kinds of things we never do,” Blanco said. She explains that bullies can attack in more ways than physical. “The moment a child starts asking themselves what’s wrong with me is the moment that potential long-term damage from bullying has taken root,” Blanco said. “If you are a parent, you have to be aware that, if your child is lonely or feeling isolated or left out, the potential damage of that can be severe.” Blanco said the first thing a parent should do to help their child is help them find a brand-new social outlet separate from school. She suggests looking into programs offered by park districts, museums, camps and libraries. See BULLIES on page 11A

ole McGlory, the secretary-treasurer of Know Resolve. “We want a place where students dealing with mental health crises or thoughts of suicide come and decompress, talk about it with like-minded people and seem help or just have some fun.” McGlory began working on the fundraising event since Rice and her husband are friends. “We were talking while he was over about Know Resolve,” she said. “He was expressing how he was interested in starting a fundraising opportunity. He wanted to start an event and it took off from there.” Rice said that he thought it was imperative to support positive mental health efforts in the community. “Everybody is or knows someone who is dealing with mental health issues,” he said. “It’s a day for people to come together and enjoy themselves to maybe see what is going on with the community and maybe with yourself. … You don’t realize how many people deal with mental health, so I really want to raise awareness.” Rice added that there should be some fun attractions at the fundraiser as well as some useful information for those who are struggling or know a young person who is. “We have food trucks, we have bounce houses for the kids, games, a DJ, some sports equipment and I am trying to get therapy dogs to come.” The funds from the event will support Know Resolve’s programming. “For every dollar that comes in through fundraising, 88 cents of that dollar will go toward putting programs into schools,” said McGlory. “We have the Detour Project in six middle and high schools. It’s a way for students to express themselves in different art forms, whether it’s painting, drawing, multimedia and so forth. We also have free programs in our building, which we call ‘The Shed.’ Right now, we have group therapy talks, a social worker on-site as a volunteer, games and opportunities to share. We just opened back up this month.” “We’re giving a percentage of the money from the food trucks to Know Resolve,” added Rice. “There will be pumpkin painting and the cost people pay for the pumpkins will go toward them as well, as will the money from our shirt sales. Any other donations are also welcome.” McGlory hopes that Fraser community members will continue to not only reach out to Know Resolve, but to support their efforts and to seek help. “We are located at 23 Mile Road and Schoenherr Road,” she said. “Teens can reach out to us by calling (877) 228-9550. We will have a 5K walk at Dakota High School in October and a big benefit dinner at the Mirage banquet center, called ‘Breaking the Silence’ if people want to support us.” Call Staff Writer Brendan Losinski at (586) 498-1068.

include scheduling workers, provide interactive training, mail, email and text communication for our 400-plus workers; establish and monitor political party balance, payroll, inventory management for equipment and supplies; coordination and tracking of assets like our tabulators; electronic poll books; voter-assist terminals; and ballots.” The Modus software will help with managing election workers and polling places, providing online portals and training for election workers and radio frequency identification tags for equipment. Meltzer says the RFID tags will help improve election accountability by providing a trail for where each piece of tagged equipment was moved. “We can know where the tabulators are located, where the electronic poll books are, where the ballots are,” Meltzer said. “All of those things are very important in terms of knowing where everything is at that time, creating a chain of custody, and that’s what the people have asked for and that’s what this software will help implement.” Modus’ software and equipment will cost the township $32,000 for initial setup and $20,000 for annual maintenance.
Beyond technology, the board assigned trustee Julie Matuzak to fill Joie West’s vacant seat on the Election Commission. According to the township’s website, the Election Commission’s duties include establishing voting precincts, assessing equipment needs and appointing at least three inspectors per precinct. Matuzak joins Meltzer and fellow Trustee Tammy Patton on the commission.
Restaurant development
Trustees also approved a special land use application for a restaurant at 24276 Hall Road. Based around a lot where there is currently a bank building, the plans call for downsizing the bank to a single drive-thru lane and building a Chipotle restaurant on the eastern side of the lot. Additional entrance and exit routes to Hall Road will be constructed. Having two drive-thru lanes in such a small space was a concern for one resident in attendance, though the plan received approval from the Planning Commission. The resident’s concerns were picked up by Trustee Mike Keys, who asked what kind of consideration was given to the site. Patton, who is on the Planning Commission, said the mechanics of the restaurant allowed it to obtain its variance. “It’s a pick-up lane; you order ahead of

It’s not everybody parking, going in and ordering. It’s more of a drive-thru method.”
Buffer reductions on the site to include more parking space were approved by the Zoning Board of Appeals. Call Staff Writer Dean Vaglia at (586) 498-1043.

Improved access to high-speed internet for everyone is in the crosshairs of the Michigan Moonshot initiative. The availability of high-speed internet connectivity in the community, or lack thereof, affects nearly every dimension of life in the 21st century, from education and work productivity to telemedicine and socioeconomic equity. Through the Michigan Moonshot, mapping and improving broadband network access is a team effort that brings together county government, researchers and everyday residents. “Citizen scientists” are being recruited in Macomb, Oakland and Wayne counties, and their participation is critical to the success of this collective call to action. The mission is simple: to complete a survey that will provide accurate data about the connectivity, speed, reliability and affordability of broadband internet service across southeast Michigan. “We’re trying to assess the level of service that people have, how reliable it is, accessibility, affordability, all these different aspects of broadband, and if they don’t have service, where those locations are,” said John Culcasi, project manager in the community planning group at the Macomb County Department of Planning and Economic Development. “As we better understand the environmental landscape that we have within our county, that will prepare us

“While you want to work with the school institutionally on the bullying itself, the first thing you need is to perform triage on your lonely child and give them hope that if they are not fitting in at school, there are still other places where they will fit in and can make friends,” Blanco said. Khoury said a parent should sit down with their child and talk to them about what is happening. She suggested parents ask their child how they think they can solve this problem, helping them along the way. “The concept behind that is to empower the students to take charge of the situation,” Khoury said. Blanco added that working in partnership with the school is essential. She said one of the most common mistakes people tend to make is focusing solely on punishing the bully.
Punishing the bully
When parents find out their child is a bully, Khoury said, they should treat it like a “teachable moment” and practice “restor-

A high-intensity treatment of hyperbaric oxygen helps to create new blood vessels while also decreasing swelling and infection. As a treatment for autism, the therapy is low risk but has been shown to be beneficial in improving language skills, cognitive function, social skills, abstract conceptualization and overall health. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy offers patients 100% pure oxygen in a special chamber, said Dr. Iris Daniel. The increased oxygen in the blood and tissue promotes the healing of wounds and the body overall, helping patients to gain muscle strength and improve memory.

ative justice approaches.” For example, she suggests asking a child who is a bully to write an apology letter to the student they are bullying. “The most effective way to diminish bullying in a school is to treat the bullies with compassion and engage in restorative practices when it comes to discipline and to help their target to become more socially confident and also to deepen their ability to forgive,” Blanco said. Blanco said that parents should engage in compassionate forms of discipline if they find out their child is the bully. For example, a bully may benefit from doing random acts of kindness for a different person each day and recording how that person responded to that act and how that response made them feel. “If you have a kid who’s mean at school, your child is crying out for help,” Blanco said. “Do everything you can to find out what’s causing this hunger and what is causing this cry for help, and work backward from there.” For more information on Blanco’s story and insights, visit her website at jodeeblanco. com.

Nursing from page 1A
Macomb Community College President James Sawyer and Detroit Mercy President Donald Taylor both signed the partnership agreement at the ceremony, with several college faculty and local members of the medical field in attendance. The new BSN program is designed to expand nursing education opportunities for recent Macomb graduates and practicing associate degree nurses. The program will be headquartered at the Macomb University Center on the Center Campus of Macomb Community College. “It’s going to create a real seamless pathway for our associate degree nursing graduates to earn a bachelor’s degree,” Sawyer said. “We listened to our partners in terms of just how important it is to get more BSN graduates out there in the work world. We’re pleased to be able to play a part in trying to do that.” The program’s first cohort of students will begin in January 2024 and the second cohort in August 2024. College officials expect to include between 12-25 students per cohort. According to Sawyer, the first two cohorts will have their tuition and fees paid through a $2 million grant from the State of Michigan. “It’s specifically designed to speed up or promote those pathways from associate degree nursing to Bachelor of Science in Nurs-
ing,” Sawyer said. “We’re very excited that the grant will pay for their cost of education.” In-person classes will be held on campus at the University Center, and staff will be onsite to offer advising, career services, financial aid and mental health counseling. For those who attend full-time, the program will provide ADNs with an accelerated pathway to earning a BSN in 12 months. The coursework will consist of seven-week classes in 15-week semesters, with classes in face-toface, online and hybrid formats. According to Sawyer, students who attend part-time can finish the program in two years. “I’m really pleased at how collaborative it has been between administration, faculty staff and the two institutions that work together,” Taylor said. “As Jim said, the grant pays for the first two cohorts. After that, you can earn your bachelor’s degree here in nursing for $13,000. One year if you go full-time, and two years if you go part-time. I think you’re going to have a lot of your alumni who are going to be interested in this program with ADNs coming back and getting their BSN.” The signing ceremony was held in one of the college’s current nursing classrooms that was designed to represent a hospital setting. On the main floor, there are mannequins in hospital beds that serve as patients. There’s also a geriatric room and a pediatric room on the floor. “It allows us to mimic (an) acute care facility with private hospital rooms as well as an ER set up. We have two control rooms in this particular setting where two very inde-

pendent scenarios can run at the same time,” said Narine Mirijanian, the dean of health and public service at Macomb. “This space is primarily used for our nursing students, but it’s also for our respiratory care students, our (occupational therapy assistant), (physical therapist assistant) students as well as our paramedic students.” Students interested in participating in
the BSN program need to apply for admission to Detroit Mercy and meet the university’s requirements. Those include having a 2.5 GPA, an ADN and an unencumbered nursing license from the state of Michigan. For more information or to apply to the BSN program, contact Donna Gormely, Detroit Mercy admission counselor, at gormel dm@udmercy.edu.

Library from page 1A
base the new building on, picking up Rochester Hills library director Christine Hage (who previously led that library’s construction) to lead the CMPL’s new start. One feature planners wanted for the new building was an automated material handling system. “That is a conveyor belt system that allows people to return items … and have them go down a conveyor belt, get checked in and then rough-sorted depending on the area of the library that they belong to,” Neal said. “We had gone to a couple of libraries around the county, because there were none in Michigan (with the system) at the time, to have a look at the systems and see how they work.” One member of the library board that was key to outfitting the new facility was Donald Green, whose connections with local figures through his Rotary Club membership brought numerous gifts to the library. Such gifts include the mural, globe, puppet theater, Pewabic tile fountain and the fireplace. Opening day on Oct. 26, 2003, largely went off without a hitch, save for having to move $1 million of new materials with a lift due to a water leak in the elevator shaft. Crowds poured into the new library and kicked off two decades of reading and research in Clinton Township. As times changed, so did the CMPL. Both satellite locations would eventually find permanent buildings, and the Main Library would evolve to match two decades of technological developments. A major casualty from the rise of the digital world is the library’s reference book collection, but the space once held by encyclopedias is now home to the library of things.
“We have all sorts of things from tools to slide converters (to) jewelry making starter kits so that this can be your starting point to try something out,” Neal said. “If you want to try a GoPro, you don’t have to buy it. Borrow it from the library, see if you like it.” Next year, the Main Library will undergo its first major refresh. The changes will mostly be limited to quality-of-life updates such as replacing worn-out carpet, installing LED lights and implementing a geothermal heating system similar to the North Branch’s system, but one change will finally realize a design feature that was meant to be there from the start: a drive-up book return window. “We had initially planned for an automated machine to deliver items on hold to make it convenient for people,” Neal said. “The company that developed the automated check-in systems had developed a prototype for us here that unfortunately did not end up having enough capacity, so they took their prototype back.” The CMPL will have several events and activities on Thursday, Oct. 26, to celebrate the milestone. “Anyone who visits the Main Library on the 26th will get a free cookie just for stopping by,” said Jamie Morris, CMPL head of communications and strategy. “In addition to that, we’re hosting a scavenger hunt throughout the library. We’re going to have pictures of things that have happened at the Main Library over the last 20 years, and they’ll be scattered throughout the building so people can go on a scavenger hunt. If they find all 20 pictures and get them in the correct order, they’ll get their choice of CMPL swag.” There will also be a birthday storytime and crafts at 11 a.m. for kids. Cookies and prizes will be available while supplies last.

is confused, they just have to pop their head into one station and we can direct you where to go. You can check out in the event space, and we do keep periodicals and large print books here on this side.” While there have been challenges adapting the library’s activities to the new location, library staff said they believe they are managing to provide the same level of service and opportunities as before. “The temporary location is smaller than our previous location, so we’ve had to pare down our collection to the most circulated items that we have,” Getzin said. “Luckily, when we moved in, we had more space than we thought we were going to have so we were able to move some additional items in. We have fewer computers available because we have less space and we can’t make our programs as big because of those space constraints, but other than that, it’s been really nice.” “We’ve been trying to plan lots of smaller programs like crafts because we have limited space,” added programming assistant Shaine Samulak. “We are still trying to vary things. We’ve moved a lot to virtual programming as well. We have sleep storytime that is virtual, and we have the upcoming Dungeons & Dragons program that is also virtual. … It’s been a little challenging moving everything and shifting some things to virtual programming, but it’s nothing we can’t handle. We are still trying to increase attendance for our virtual programs, for instance.” There are several upcoming activities planned at the library’s temporary location, all of which people can register to join on the
library’s website at fraserpubliclibrary.org, on the calendar page. “We’ve got some really cool things coming up,” said Getzin. “At the end of October, we always do a big Halloween push, because, why not, it’s a fun holiday. We’re actually inviting in a group of puppeteers, Alex Thomas and Friends, and they will be here at 10:30 a.m. on Saturday, Oct. 28, the same day as our trunk-or-treat event, and they will be doing a spooky puppet show.” The activities will include both in-person and virtual programs. “We are doing our last movie night of the season in October. It’s going to be ‘Hotel Transylvania.’ We do that outside on Friday nights at 8 p.m., which is Oct. 20,” Getzin said. “We’re also doing cork bats that you can make in your house, and that will be at 3 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 27. We’re also doing a special (Dungeons & Dragons) session open only for teens and adults, from 5-9 p.m. on Tuesday, Oct. 24.” November also will have some fun attractions. “We’ve got some more crafts in November,” said Getzin. “We have our craft nights on the third Thursday of each month. This is for adults and teens. It’s always been popular, but for whatever reason, it’s been gangbusters this year. In November, we’re leading people in making hombre pinecones, so you can color a pinecone. That will be 6 p.m. on Thursday, Nov. 16. We encourage people to come early so they have time to get the craft done. … There also will be a craft day for kids to make leaf suncatchers. This will be the first Saturday of the month, which is at 2 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 4. This is designed specifically for kiddos.” Both Getzin and Samulak hope Fraser residents will continue to support their local library and enjoy what it offers despite the unforeseen challenges of the past few months.
“Definitely stop by and see us,” Getzin said. “Just because we’re in a temporary location doesn’t mean we can’t help you find what you need. We’re still getting our MeLCat items. We still get deliveries from other libraries. We may not have a book here onsite because it’s in storage, but we can definitely get it. It only takes a couple of days. It’s no more difficult than coming in and asking,
the same way you would put a popular item on hold.” “We’re still here, we’re still offering as much as we can, even in these new circumstances,” added Samulak. “We’re still trying to make things exciting and new and try new things.” Call Staff Writer Brendan Losinski at (586) 498-1068.

Feud at salon
EASTPOINTE — According to a police report, officers were dispatched to a local business sometime on Sept. 23 in response to a fight and theft that had taken place there. The business is a salon located in the area of 10 Mile Road. A 19-year-old woman reportedly had an eyelash appointment and had paid a $20 deposit. Once the technician realized the business did not have the requested eyelash color, the client allegedly asked for her deposit back. The technician reportedly told the client that the deposit was nonrefundable, reminding her that she had been advised of this when she signed up for the appointment. That’s when the client allegedly left the establishment and returned a short time later with her 41-year-old mother, who demanded that her daughter’s deposit be returned. When the employees at the salon refused to comply, the mother reportedly went to the display rack and started to grab perfume and candle boxes that were for sale. She allegedly told the employees that she was getting her daughter’s money back. The suspect also took an employee’s cell phone, which had been sitting on the salon counter. When the salon employees tried to stop both customers from leaving the store, a fight took place, during which a standup mirror was broken. Both suspects then fled the scene prior to officers arriving. The suspects were identified, police said, and a detective was assigned to the case.
Fraud attempted at bank
EASTPOINTE — According to a police report, a 50-year-old man attempted to defraud a bank of thousands of dollars sometime on Sept. 22. The establishment was a Flagstar Bank located on Gratiot Avenue. The suspect reportedly attempted to cash a fraudulent $2,500 check using a fraudulent identification card. Police said that the same suspect had reportedly committed a similar crime the day prior in the city of Warren, in which he cashed a fraudulent check for $10,000. The bank staff and manager realized that a crime was taking place and reportedly stalled the suspect until police arrived. The suspect was positively identified and arrested, police said. The case was being presented to the Macomb County prosecutor for possible charges.
Catalytic converters stolen from SMART buses
ST. CLAIR SHORES — At 8:10 a.m. on Sept. 18, a report was made about a larceny that occurred
between Sept. 15 and Sept. 18 at the St. Clair Shores Civic Arena, located at 20000 Stephens St. Upon arrival, an officer made contact with the complainant, a 35-year-old man who stated the catalytic converters of two Suburban Mobility Authority for Regional Transportation buses parked in the lots over the weekend were stolen. The man stated the vehicles were last seen on Sept. 15 around 4 p.m. and it was discovered that the catalytic converters were stolen on Sept. 18 around 6:45 a.m. The man was provided with a report number, and he stated he would contact SMART to inform them of the theft. He said the third SMART bus was diesel and nothing was stolen from it. A 9-inch Diablo Sawzall blade was found on the ground between the two SMART buses. Pictures were taken of the buses and the blade. The blade was taken as evidence.
Man reports home break-in
SHELBY TOWNSHIP — Officers were dispatched to the 14000 block of Silent Woods Drive, near 23 Mile and Schoenherr roads, for a breaking and entering report at 4:31 p.m. Sept. 8. Upon arrival, officers spoke to the caller, who stated that he believed that his house had been broken into after finding his patio door had been taken off, and the lock on his sliding door had been punched out. A K-9 dog at the scene attempted to track a suspect but was unsuccessful. The house appeared to have been rummaged through, according to officers, and some valuables were missing. The detective bureau was investigating.
Someone breaks motorcycle’s windshield at bar
SHELBY TOWNSHIP — At 1:20 a.m. Sept. 9, a motorcyclist came into the Police Department to file a vandalism complaint. The man stated that he had been at a local bar, and when he left the bar, he discovered that someone had broken out and cracked his motorcycle’s windshield. The estimated cost to repair the windshield is $500. The detective bureau was investigating.
Speeding driver found with drugs, cash
SHELBY TOWNSHIP — An officer observed a vehicle in the area of Hall Road and Market Street speeding at 63 mph in a 45 mph zone at 11:45 p.m. Sept. 8. The officer then pulled over the vehicle for the traffic violation. Upon checking the driver of the vehicle in the Law Enforcement Information Network, his record showed a valid warrant out of Ohio. The driver of the vehicle was removed from the vehicle. A K-9 arrived and the dog indicated on the
front driver’s seat, center console and underneath both seats. Police officers then searched the vehicle, locating 1.5 pounds of marijuana, along with a digital scale and $600 cash, according to the police report. Police requested a warrant against the driver for possession with intent to distribute marijuana, and possession of greater than 5 ounces of marijuana.
Customer steals baseball cards
SHELBY TOWNSHIP — At 5:55 p.m. Sept. 8, a Meijer loss prevention employee observed a subject in the store select some baseball cards off the shelf and peel off the security stickers. The subject was then seen leaving the store without paying for the baseball cards and left in his vehicle. The loss prevention employee was able to get the license plate of the vehicle that the suspect left in and gave that information to police. The case was turned over to the detective bureau to follow up with the owner of the vehicle and pursue retail fraud charges.
Student caught with vape
STERLING HEIGHTS — A student at Stevenson High School, 39701 Dodge Park Road, reportedly smelled like marijuana Sept. 15. Police reportedly watched the student and suspected that a suspicious object was in his pants pocket. It reportedly turned out to be a Breeze Prime vape, though no cannabis was reportedly found. The student was cited for having a vape as a minor, police said.
Ex-employee goes on destructive tirade
GROSSE POINTE FARMS — A 20-year-old Detroit man is facing multiple possible charges after he reportedly went on a destructive rampage at a store where he used to work when he learned he was being fired. According to a police report, at around 4:07 p.m. Sept. 17, the suspect was at his former place of employment — a store in the 18000 block of Mack Avenue — when he started yelling insults at a male former co-worker. The suspect is then said by his former co-workers to have grabbed a bottle of wine worth $18 from the sales floor and thrown it on the ground, causing it to shatter. The suspect is said to have verbally threatened and harassed a female cashier and swung a plastic shopping basket around, causing an estimated $20 worth of damage to two ornamental flower arrangements. The report states that the suspect continued to lash out at a co-worker near the store entrance, and once the suspect and the co-worker were outside, the suspect is alleged to have taken a fighting stance and balled his fists and raised them as if he were about to
hit the co-worker. The suspect is said to have spat in the face of his co-worker as this point. The suspect was arrested walking nearby and is facing possible charges including assault and battery, malicious destruction of property and disorderly person. The suspect was also permanently banned from store property, or he would face trespassing charges. Police said the suspect was “highly agitated.” After he was put in an ambulance to be taken to the hospital for bleeding wounds on his hands, he reportedly demanded sexual acts from emergency medical personnel. Given the suspect’s state and demeanor, the paramedic on the ambulance said he would be seeking a mental health evaluation at the hospital for the suspect.
Not flying the friendly skies
GROSSE POINTE CITY — A 20-year-old Detroit woman was detained by airport police at Detroit Metropolitan Airport Sept. 19 after she was found to be wanted on a warrant out of Grosse Pointe City for allegedly passing a counterfeit $100 bill at The Village Starbucks location April 18. The suspect was facing a counterfeit currency charge.
Retail fraud suspect arrested
GROSSE POINTE FARMS — A 28-year-old Grosse Pointe Farms woman could be facing a third-degree retail fraud charge after she is said to have exited a store in the 18000 block of Mack Avenue at 1:21 p.m. Sept. 21 carrying a four-pack of High Noon Seltzer, valued at $10.99, without paying for the alcohol. Police reportedly located the suspect walking nearby with the seltzer, which is when they arrested her. The suspect was also given a trespassing warning and advised not to return to the store.
Trespasser arrested on warrants
GROSSE POINTE FARMS — Police called to a gas station in the 19000 block of Mack Avenue at 5:53 a.m. Sept. 22 about a customer who was allegedly causing trouble said they immediately recognized the suspect — a 47-year-old Harper Woods man — as someone they’ve dealt with before. A police report states that the suspect was previously warned not to return to the location and cited for trespassing at the gas station. Police said the suspect was also found to have several warrants against him out of 36th District Court in Detroit, including for assault and battery and a misdemeanor warrant for shoplifting. The suspect was arrested on the warrants, but because police said he had engaged in destructive behavior the last time he was in their custody, the suspect was transported by Detroit police to a Detroit detention facility.
