ROAD TRIPS
BY ERIC CZARNIK
BY GREG TASKER NORTHERN MICHIGAN — What better way to truly explore the beauty of autumn than a road trip, especially in northern Michigan. While there are plenty of scenic rural stretches across the state, the upper stretch of the mitten offers countless panoramas of forested ridges, dunes and lakeshores ablaze in fiery reds, oranges and yellows. Fall officially started Saturday, Sept. 23, but colors across the northern lower peninsula are expected to reach partial to peak displays the first two weeks of October, according to various sites tracking fall foliage. If you’re thinking about a road trip north, here are a few scenic drives to consider.

A recently formed program called REDIRECT is offering a second chance to people with substance use disorders whom local police have apprehended. That’s what a partnership of law enforcement experts concluded during a presentation before the Sterling Heights City Council Sept. 5. According to officials, the REDIRECT program is an addiction-related diversion program with a mission to help and rehabilitate certain people who have committed a minor, nonviolent offense instead of prosecuting and imprisoning them. It is a project jointly developed by the Sterling Heights Police Department, the Macomb County Prosecutor’s Office, and Families Against Narcotics. During the presentation, Sterling Chief Dale Dwojakowski said Lt. Mario Bastianelli also is involved with facilitating the program. According to organizers, the REDIRECT program started in October 2022, and the program offers its enrollees support for as long as

Tunnel of Trees, M-119
This 20-mile scenic stretch along Lake Michigan, from Harbor Springs to Cross Village, is by no means a road less traveled (expect heavy traffic on weekends and other times), but there’s a reason why it’s so popular and a must-visit in the fall. Officially a state highway, M-119, this shoreline road is thick with trees, their canopies reaching over the roadway. In the fall, the trees create a tunnel of colors. Adding to the magic are glimpses of Lake Michigan, nature preserves and small villages. Just outside Harbor Springs, Pond Hill Farm offers a one-stop fall extravaganza, with pumpkin patches, hay rides, u-pick fruit, hot cider, donuts and more. There’s a playground for kids and farm animals to feed. Farther north, stop at the LEFT: Photo provided by Traverse City Tourism

Trump visits Clinton Township, criticizes push for electric vehicles REPUBLICAN PLEDGES SUPPORT FOR AUTO WORKERS DURING EVENT AT DRAKE ENTERPRISES BY JONATHAN OOSTING/BRIDGE MICHIGAN AND DEAN VAGLIA/DVAGLIA@CANDGNEWS.COM CLINTON TOWNSHIP — Michigan auto workers deserve “fair wages and greater stability” but their jobs could soon collapse because of a government-backed shift to electric vehicles, former President Donald Trump warned in a speech Sept. 27 in Clinton Township. “Your current negotiations don’t mean as much as you think” because “in two to three years you will not have one job in this state,” Trump said in the speech at Drake Enterprises, near Gratiot Avenue and Hall Road.
His remarks were aimed at striking members of the United Auto Workers union, who 13 days earlier began walking off jobs at Ford Motor Co., General Motors Co. and Stellantis. Drake Enterprises is a non-unionized auto supplier that specializes in gear shift levers and transmission components for heavy trucks. In his return to Macomb County, Trump used his roughly hour-long speech to bash Democratic President Joe Biden’s push for electric vehicles and promised to See TRUMP on page 4A

A recent traffic stop helped keep a stolen gun out of a teen’s hands, according to the Sterling Heights Police Department. According to Lt. Mario Bastianelli, police pulled over a black Saab along Mound Road, by 17 Mile Road, at around 7:45 p.m. Sept. 12. Police Officer Julian Arche reportedly saw the car move off course and hit a curb, so he stopped the vehicle outside a car wash. The vehicle reportedly had two 17-year-olds in it, and Arche reportedly noted that they were behaving anxiously and allegedly seemed to be deceptive about their destination. Then Arche and Officer Scott DeMuynck reportedly searched the car and the teens, and the passenger allegedly resisted the search until a loaded gun fell from his waistband down his pant leg, police said. Police described the gun as a 9 mm Glock 45 that had an extended 30-round magazine. Upon this discovery, police reportedly arrested the occupant and took the gun. Police said they learned that the gun came from Sterling Heights but was stolen. Officers added that the vehicle also contained a black ski mask.

stop what he called a “transition to hell” that will force automakers to close factories and move production overseas, repeating claims Bridge Michigan previously found to be inflated. Trump’s visit to the township occurred without incident, according to township clerk Kim Meltzer “I think our township did a great job coordinating with the safety of the community with the law enforcement and with the schools, because they were butting up to the school property,” Meltzer said, referring to various L’Anse Creuse Public Schools properties near Drake Enterprises. “We were a great host, and I think that’s what we should be no matter who the candidate is.” Meltzer, who was not in attendance, said she was honored to have presidential candidates visit Clinton Township. “I’m always honored to have any person who is wanting to serve our country to pick Clinton Township to come into and speak and let everybody know their platform … I think it’s a good thing for Clinton Township to have people of that stature coming into the community. If Biden came in, I would
feel the same way.” Clinton Township Supervisor Robert Cannon, who was also not in attendance, praised the township’s public safety departments and all attendees for being respectful with each other.
Candidates on both sides court autoworkers
With a potential 2024 rematch looming, Biden and Trump are already battling for the blue-collar vote in Michigan, which is the birthplace of the modern labor movement and remains one of the most unionized states in the country. As of 2022, 14% of Michigan workers — about 589,000 — were members of a union, the 11th highest rate in the country and well above the national average of 10%, according to federal data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. While striking UAW members are pushing for higher wages, cost-of-living increases and changes to a lower-tiered pay system for new hires, the union has also expressed concern about the industry’s ongoing industry shift to electric vehicles, which have fewer parts and therefore require fewer workers to produce, an anxiety Trump has hammered on again and again. In his speech in Clinton Township, Trump laid out what he called a “vision for
economic nationalism” focused on keeping American jobs at home. The visit came the day after Biden made history as the first sitting president to join a picket line. Biden spoke to striking UAW members on Sept. 26 outside a General Motors facility in Belleville, where he backed the union’s call for a 40% wage bump, saying auto workers deserve a “hell of a lot more” than they are currently paid. The Biden administration’s proposed fuel emissions standards, which are projected to require two-thirds of all new auto sales to be electric by 2032, amounts to a “government assassination of your jobs and your industry,” Trump argued. “He’s selling you out to environmental extremists, the radical left, people who have no idea how bad this is going to be,” Trump said. “You can be loyal to American labor or you can be loyal to the environmental lunatics, but you can’t really be loyal to both.” Biden has called for a “just” transition to EVs as part of his goal to make half of all new car sales electric by 2030. That would be a dramatic increase in the U.S., where EVs accounted for about six percent of new car sales in 2022, which doubled the prior year. To accelerate the shift, Biden has authorized billions of dollars in federal grants and loans to help traditional automakers retool
existing facilities for EV production. Last year’s Inflation Reduction Act also expanded federal tax credits for EV customers. Detroit automakers are already spending big to ramp up EV production and compete with other companies, most notably Tesla, the California-based company that uses cheaper nonunion labor to produce electric cars. General Motors, which plans to spend $7 billion on EV and battery facilities in Michigan, has aims to end production of internal combustion engines by 2035. Trump aggressively courted blue-collar workers in his winning 2016 campaign, attacking what he called unfair international trade deals like the North American Free Trade Agreement, which he eventually scrapped and replaced as president. Trump won Michigan that year by a razor-thin 10,714 votes, topping Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton by fewer than three-tenths of a percentage point. Biden won the state by about three percentage points in 2020, topping Trump by 154,188 votes. St. Clair Shores City Councilman and UAW 412 member Chris Vitale attended the event, describing it to be as “crowded,” “raucous,” and “boisterous” as any other of the Trump events he’s attended. But for as See TRUMP on page 5A

brash as some of the former president’s comments may have been, Vitale said there was some truth to them. “Trump says something like ‘Electric cars are going to spell the death of your industry,’” Vitale said. “Well, it might not spell the absolute death of things — I think that three years from now there will still be three major auto companies with a presence in the Detroit area. But I will say that potentially five to 10 years out, maybe we’re down to a smaller number (and) a smaller number of facilities, and eventually it will dwindle and dry up. He may be a little exaggerated in his timeline, but he isn’t necessarily wrong.” Vitale recounted that much of the crowd were fellow union members and that being there was a show of support from Republicanaligned UAW members, who had to stand around for three hours in Drake Enterprises’ facility in order to attend the speech. “The idea that the union people are not supportive of Trump is false,” Vitale said. “He has a lot of supporters in the union ranks. He would not win Macomb County if he didn’t.” Vitale says he heard members present say they wished the speech was held in a union shop, but he believes it would not have been
favorable for a union shop’s owner to do so. “Union shops are typically much larger,” Vitale said. “They often sell to consumers and they have stockholders and they risk being boycotted and things like that, whereas nonunion shops are typically family-owned. One guy calls the shots and he gets to decide if Trump comes in there or not. They don’t sell to retail, so they don’t have to worry about being boycotted.” Ahead of Trump’s remarks, U.S. Sen. Debbie Stabenow, D-Michigan, released a statement addressing the Trump and Biden visits and a “major contrast” in presidential leadership. She called Biden “a true champion for our workers and the industry that fuels Michigan’s economy.” “He’s committed to a future where our workers get the pay and benefits that they deserve, instead of their jobs being shipped overseas or to the South,” Stabenow said. In contrast, she said Trump “turned his back on our autoworkers.” “He’s lined the pockets of the wealthy and shipped American manufacturing jobs overseas. When times were tough, he said that auto plants should move to lower-cost, nonunion states. He even said the auto companies should just go bankrupt,” Stabenow said. “This week, more than ever, it’s clear who stands with Michigan.”

Good Hart General Store, in the village of Good Hart, home to a few hundred people. The general store is a rare find and serves as the village’s grocery, bakery, deli and post office. You can pick up homemade pies, cookies and other treats. If you’re looking for a diversion to a local beach or picnic spot, the store staff will guide you. At the end of the sometimes twisting route lies Legs Inn in Cross Village. It’s as kitschy and rustic as you might imagine but the inn is well-known for serving some of the best Polish fare around — including pierogi, smoked whitefish and stuffed cabbage.
M-22, Manistee to Glen Arbor
It’s a long and winding road from Manistee to Glen Arbor, but one far less-traveled than the popular Tunnel of Trees. Pick up Route 22 just north of Manistee and follow along the Lake Michigan coastline, past orchards and vineyards and farm stands selling apples and other seasonal produce. The two-lane highway passes through small communities like Onekama, Arcadia, Elberta and around picturesque inland lakes. There are spots along the way to pause and take in views of Lake Michigan. Stop in Frankfort for a cold brew at Stormcloud Brewing Co. or shop along its tidy main street. Farther north, the road passes through Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore. Learn more about the nearly 72,000-acre park at the Philip A. Hart Visitor Center in Empire or detour along Pierce Stocking Scenic Drive for even more impressive views of Lake Michigan. Empire is also home to one of the best chocolatiers around, the Grocer’s Daughter Chocolate Shop. Always busy, Glen Arbor boasts several restaurants, gift shops, wine tastings, bike rentals and paddling adventures. M-22 continues along the perimeter of the Leelanau Peninsula, with easy access to about two dozen wineries, busy with harvest in the fall, and other small towns — Leland, Northport and Suttons Bay.

also a great location to see eagles that nest nearby. The river, which empties into Lake Huron, was once a major transportation route for floating giant white pines from the surrounding forests. The Lumberman’s Monument Visitor Center pays homage to that past and shares the stories of lumberjacks through videos and displays. A 14-foot bronze Lumberman’s Monument stands high on a bank overlooking the river, a sure-bet photo opp for Instagramers. Along the way, stop at Iargo Springs and descend the 300 or so stairs to the clear springs. The stairs were built by the Civilian Conservation Corps in the 1930s, but the springs were first discovered and used by Native Americans. The surrounding forest is abundant with outdoor activities, everything from camping and hiking to trails for off-road vehicles. Cap your road trip with a ride on the AuSable River Queen, the only paddlewheel boat operating in northern Michigan. It’s a wonderful way to enjoy views of exploding colors along the river, from the river. Greg Tasker is a Traverse City-based freelance writer.

The nonprofit Furniture Bank of Southeastern Michigan will hold its annual comedy show fundraiser — featuring Emmy Award-winner Paul Mercurio — at 6 p.m. Oct. 12 at Mark Ridley’s Comedy Castle in Royal Oak. Tickets are $80 per person and include a buffet dinner, live auction and 50/50 raffle. The Furniture Bank provides families across metro Detroit with crucial furnishings, such as beds and mattresses, so that parents and children can get a good night’s sleep and don’t have to sleep on the floor. This is made possible by donations of cash and gently used furniture. The need is especially acute now, as Furniture Bank officials report that furniture donations are down 15% while they’ve seen a 30% spike in the number of families seeking their help since last year. “The pandemic prompted many people to get rid of their furniture, but now that we are on the other side, we’ve seen furniture donations drop,” Furniture Bank Executive Director Rob Boyle said in a press release. “At the same time, our referrals for families in need continue to rise. This, coupled with the increasing costs of inflation and fuel, makes it even more challenging to provide essential furniture items to people who need them most. Our mission is to ensure that children and families have beds to sleep in, tables to eat on, and other basic comforts so that they can rebuild their lives and live with dignity.” Mercurio, who received Emmy and Peabody awards for his work on “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert,” has also had his own hit one-man Broadway show. Fittingly, he grew up in his family’s furniture business. For tickets, email events@Furniture-Bank.org or call (248) 332-1300.

18 months. The chief said 37 people have been enrolled in the program, of which 26 are still involved. So far, the program has a 70% success rate, he said, adding that only one of its enrollees has since reoffended. In the meantime, other local police departments are trying to set up their own versions of the program, including Clinton Township, Center Line and the Macomb County Sheriff ’s Department, he said. The chief added that this program has been used for offenders involved in shoplifting or minor drug possession cases and not cases that deal with drug distribution. He described what happens to new REDIRECT participants. “We give them a card. We tell them they have to make contact within a week,” Dwojakowski said. “They have to work within the program guidelines. They cannot reoffend. They have to stay sober. They have to meet the monthly meetings. “And if they successfully do what they said they were going to do, it’s a win for a society. It’s a win for Sterling Heights. It’s a win for the Prosecutor’s Office, Families Against Narcotics – because you have someone that no longer uses narcotics. They’re not offending and committing crimes, and the charge will actually be dismissed by the Prosecutor’s Office.” Macomb County Prosecutor Peter Lucido and retired Judge Linda Davis, from Families Against Narcotics, also attended the presentation. Lucido credited Dwojakowski’s leadership in getting the Sterling department on board. “Not too many people want to step up and be the first in the pool, because you don’t know how deep it is or how far you’re going to go down,” Lucido said. “But in this case here, it’s a success, and I’m very proud of the fact that the chief stood up, as well as

Linda getting the grant funding.” Davis praised the city of Sterling Heights for being open-minded. “We hope you will keep us in mind when you are deciding how to spend your opiate dollars and that we can extend this program even further to do great things in the city of Sterling Heights,” she said, referring to the money the city got from an opioid settlement made in 2021. The 2023-24 budget expects $125,000 in opioid settlement funds for that fiscal year. The budget says the city expects around $2.6 million over an 18-year period. When it was the City Council’s turn to speak, Councilwoman Barbara Ziarko welcomed the program as an example that “life is full of second chances.” Councilman Michael Radtke said the program helps the public view police as a “helping hand.” “You’ve taken on a social justice mission where you’re trying to help people instead of putting them in jail, and I think that that should be commended,” Radtke said. Mayor Michael Taylor praised the REDIRECT program idea and said the partnership defies typical expectations, adding that one might normally think that the police, a prosecutor and a former judge would take a tough-on-crime “lock ’em up” approach to an issue like this. “We should not expect the three of you to be coming here creating a program like this, which I think speaks incredibly (voluminously) about your character and about your willingness to try something different,” Taylor said.

NATURE-BASED LEARNING ON THE RISE IN MICHIGAN

‘IT REALLY BUILDS RESILIENCE, AND KIDDOS UNDERSTAND THAT THEY ARE PART OF THE WORLD AROUND THEM’ BY MARY BETH ALMOND malmond@candgnews.com
METRO DETROIT — Constantly inundated by technology, today’s kids are spending much of their free time hunched over a screen inside instead of playing outdoors. Parents, on the other hand, are busy looking for experiences that will allow their children to unplug and get active, sparking the demand for nature-based schools and programs across the nation. The drive to offer kids hands-on learning experiences outdoors — commonly referred to as the forest school or nature school movement — is a trend that’s gaining momentum nationwide, including in Michigan. In these schools and programs, children spend most — or all — of their time outside. Last year, the Farmington Hills Nature Center at Heritage Park opened a Nature Preschool for children ages 3-5. “We use the outdoors as our classroom, so we’re really building skills in a real-world learning environment. Skills like resilience, social skills, building a classroom community, and building a respect and curiosity for nature,” said Nature Center Supervisor Ashlie Smith. Students at the Heritage Park Nature Preschool — a state licensed child care center with preschool teachers who are Forest School Certified — learn outside every day for the entire half-day class See LEARNING on page 13A

The Edsel and Eleanor Ford House in Grosse Pointe Shores is offering programs for adults and youths that promise to be enlightening, engaging and educational. “We really focus on all learners,” Ford House Director of Education Jason Dake said. “We want to provide educational programs for everyone.” Edsel and Eleanor Ford were known for their impeccable sense of style along with their efforts to protect their estate’s natural environment, so a sustainability talk about fashion at 7 p.m. Nov. 2 in the Visitor Center is an ideal fit. Fashion designer, stylist and consultant Paulina Petkoski — who worked with designers including Calvin Klein, Isaac Mizrahi, Diane Von Furstenberg and Marc Jacobs — will discuss how the fashion industry is addressing this issue and why it’s so important. Make a beautiful plate or candleholder using the fused glass technique during a Maker Studio workshop at 1 p.m. Nov. 18 in the Visitor Center. Artist and educator Helen Agius-Andreae will lead participants as they design their piece, which will be fused and slumped in a kiln and ready for pickup from
the Ford House two weeks later. All materials are supplied — just bring your imagination. No experience is necessary.
See spaces inside the house not normally open to visitors during the “Nooks & Crannies” guided tours on various dates Oct. 6 through Dec. 31. Participants will traverse private stairways, the attic, the basement, the infirmary and the underground tunnel to the Powerhouse. Each “Nooks & Crannies” tour is only open to eight people because it takes participants into some small spaces. Because it involves climbing multiple flights of stairs, it’s not wheelchair accessible. Dake said this is “one of our more popular house tours.” It’s usually only offered during the fall and winter. Advance registration for all programs is strongly recommended as space is limited. To register or for more information, visit www.fordhouse.org/events/.

period they sign up for. If severe weather occurs, class activities are moved into a licensed classroom at the Nature Center. “It’s meant to be very immersive, where children are learning throughout multiple seasons. … They’re here every day, all winter and on rainy days too … so it really builds resilience, and kiddos understand that they are part of the world around them,” said Smith. To some, it may look like children at the Heritage Park Nature Preschool are simply playing outside for hours each day, but Smith said their time outdoors helps develop valuable skills and fosters traits like resilience, leadership, problem-solving and perseverance. “Instead of having a classroom that is set up for them with everything perfectly arranged, they are learning that things are dynamic, things change and the seasons change. The classroom is different every time they come in, which really builds their ability to become self-sufficient and empowers them in their learning,” she explained. In 2019, Bailey Lininger opened Firefly Forest School to better connect students with the natural world. “Both parents and educators want kids to experience an unplugged childhood as much as they can — one where they can dig for worms, balance on fallen tree trunks and splash in puddles,” said Lininger, the director of Firefly Forest School. Firefly Forest School provides southeast Michigan children ages 3-10 with immersive, nature-based learning through enrich-
ment programming from nature preserves in the metro Detroit area. “We love being able to complement a more traditional experience at a more traditional school with some time to just run and be free and play and climb and build and dig and do all the things that are a really important part of being a kid,” Lininger said. Every class is held entirely outdoors every day, rain or shine, even in the chilly winter temperatures. “We’re not just going outside for 20 minutes to play at recess or only when it’s nice and sunny and 75 degrees. We really work with our families and our kids to embrace all weather,” Lininger said. Armed with the proper attire and outdoor gear, students are taught how to embrace the world around them as it is and use it as their classroom. “The more time for unstructured play that you give kids in the natural world, the more creative they are, the more they learn, the more they deepen their growth and fine motor skills, the more they are able to explore and learn independently instead of just being guided, and the more opportunities they are given to be creative problem solvers, to think critically about things, to learn to be adaptable and flexible,” added Lininger. Students are free to run, jump, splash and explore and, in the process, they are constantly learning and growing. “One of the things that we really focus on in our program is instilling a sense of selfefficacy and capability in our kids. We’re really focused on giving our kids the chance to feel competent and capable — that’s something that we see a ton of growth in,” Lininger said. “We see a lot of confidence too.”

Someone reportedly tried to steal a red 2021 Dodge Challenger Sept. 16 from the parking lot at the Stellantis Sterling Stamping Plant, 35777 Van Dyke Ave. Police said the owner saw that his car had a broken driver-side window and wires dangling beneath the glove box.

Stevenson student caught with vape
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.
Gun from page 3A
Police added that the occupant possessing the gun was from Sterling Heights and had just been released from the Macomb County Juvenile Detention Center that same day “for a pending unarmed robbery case.” Police said they took him back to the detention center, and at the time, he was reportedly “awaiting further felony charges.” Bastianelli told the Sentry in an email that the driver was “released on scene with a citation.” In a statement, he praised Arche’s and DeMuynck’s actions, adding that officers are always on guard, and “no traffic stop is ever just routine.” “This incident could have quickly be-

At press time, the juvenile was reportedly still at the Juvenile Justice Center and had a Sept. 26 court date scheduled, Fraylick added.

State Champs! W launches recruiting hub for female athletes BY JONATHAN SZCZEPANIAK jszczepaniak@candgnews.com
METRO DETROIT — A dream scenario for a high school athlete is to play on the collegiate level and to continue playing the sport they fell in love with when they were a child. Unfortunately for some sports, there’s just not enough eyes at each game or meet to help a student-athlete garner collegiate attention, and State Champs! Sports Network social media manager Danielle Seaman said she faced the same adversity when bowling at New Baltimore Anchor Bay High School. “As a bowler, you don’t have many options to get recruited or be seen,” Seaman said. “There was one national tournament that I was lucky enough to go to and my family could afford to, so that’s how I got recruited. Some families can’t afford to go to this national tournament because it’s in a different location every year, and you have to qualify for it, which is more money to pay for other tournaments you have to go to qualify.” Seaman went on to bowl collegiately at Monmouth University from 2018-2022. Now — nine months in at State Champs! W, a women-only branch of State Champs! Sports Network — Seaman and a team of all women have created the nation’s first recruiting hub, which launched Sept. 1, made for women by women. Along with Seaman, Kara Liles, Elizabeth Coon, Amanda Mooradian, Madison Hool and Riley Spurgess, who all played sports in some capacity, helped build the recruiting platform for female athletes in Michigan, Indiana and Ohio. State Champs! W, which started in 2021, will offer female athletes the opportunity to
create an account on the recruiting platform, with multiple membership options available. Recruitment can be difficult for any coach or athlete to handle, so Seaman said the team felt the platform was an essential tool for athletes. “A lot of programs don’t have funding to go and travel around the country and see athletes, so this makes it easy for them,” Seaman said. “Some athletes just don’t have experience or their coaches don’t know how to get them recruited, so this is a place where they can go, make a profile and possibly get recruited.” Membership packages range from $9.99-$49.99 a month, with the starter package allowing an athlete to make a profile, insert their stats and add contact information to their profile. Higher price points include the starter items while also notifying athletes when a coach views their profile and allowing athletes the ability to add social media handles and highlight videos, an interview with the State Champs! W team and social media video posts to be sent to coaches’ emails directly. Coaches receive free registration to the recruiting platform. High school athletics is at its peak with social media usage and allowing athletes to have the ability to brand themselves, and the recruiting platform is another step forward. The recruiting platform is available for athletes in any sport, with fencing, volleyball, soccer, softball, bowling and others included. State Champs! W is currently working on another avenue to enhance its website by allowing athletes the ability to see the coaches that have signed up, their team, their school and where the school is located, but it’s only in the developmental stages.

Photo provided by the Sterling Heights Police Department
Sterling Heights police say this collection of cocaine was recovered during a Sept. 6 search of a semitruck and trailer near a plaza in Sterling Heights. database, the men were arraigned Sept. 8 in 41-A District Court in Sterling Heights and were charged with delivery/manufacture of 1,000 or more grams of cocaine. Prosecutors say that charge is a felony that can carry a life sentence. Bond was set for both suspects at $500,000 cash/surety. In a statement, Macomb County Prosecutor Peter Lucido praised the police for the arrest. “A sharp-eyed response by dedicated and skilled Sterling Heights Police Officers led to the discovery of an alleged drug trafficking operation,” he said. “This is a stark reminder of the tireless efforts made by our police force to protect our county and residents.” According to the court database, Castro’s next scheduled court date is an Oct. 30 probable cause conference, and Urbina’s next court date is a probable cause conference set for Dec. 1. Castro’s listed attorney, Michael Bruss, could not be reached for comment by press time. Urbina’s listed attorney, David Kramer, declined to comment. Anyone who has more information about this incident is encouraged to contact the Sterling Heights Police Department by calling (586) 446-2800.

Four kilos of cocaine are in police custody after Sterling Heights officers reportedly searched a vehicle behind a shopping plaza. According to Sterling Heights police Lt. Mario Bastianelli, police made the discovery at around 8:30 p.m. Sept. 6 when they saw two men who were occupying a semi-truck with a trailer while it was behind a shopping plaza in the 37000 block of Van Dyke Avenue, near 16 1/2 Mile Road. According to Macomb County prosecutors, the vehicle had been illegally parked. When police talked to the driver, he reportedly said he wasn’t in the lot for any particular purpose besides planning to sleep in the vehicle that night. After police suspected that the two men were acting uneasy while being interviewed, police reportedly searched the truck and trailer with a K-9 unit and discovered cardboard boxes. Those boxes stored containers that held 4 kilos, or about $320,000 worth, of cocaine, police said. Police then reportedly arrested the men. In a statement, Bastianelli praised the officers for their vigilance. “Due to the outstanding proactive police work by Sterling Heights patrol officers and K-9 unit, two major drug dealers were removed from the streets of Sterling Heights,” he said. On Sept. 8, the Macomb County Prosecutor’s Office gave additional details about the suspects, who were identified as Cosme Urbina and Angel Castro, both 48 years old and from Illinois.
