On Friday (08/31/2018), at approximately 5:45pm, a kayaker on “Lake Tranquility” called 911 to report that he observed a body floating in the middle of the lake. Chesterfield Township and Harrison Township Fire Units recovered the unidentified deceased male. During the subsequent investigation Chesterfield Township Detectives have tentatively identified the man as a 63 year old lakefront resident of the Fairchild Lakes mobile home community. At this time investigators do not suspect foul play.
**”Lake Tranquility” is located in the center of the Fairchild Lakes mobile home community, which is on Fairchild Road between 22 and 23 Mile Road.**
***** UPDATE ***** Our wayward pup has gone home! Thanks for the shares, team!
Look at this handsome, brindle lad! He was found galavanting down Callens between Sutton and Baytown. He’s an unaltered fellow, he has a collar without tags and we could not find a microchip. He’s approximately a year old and weighs about 60 pounds. He is very friendly and everything he sees is a new pal or a toy. If he’s yours contact our dispatch center at 586-949-2322.
A 44 year old Warren man, and his 41 year old female passenger from Fraser, were both critically injured when the motorcycle they were riding was struck in the intersection by a 34 year old Rochester Hills man driving a 2000 Ford Ranger Pick-Up. The driver of the Ford Ranger fled the accident scene, dragging the motorcycle (under the front of his pick-up) for approximately 600 yards down 26 Mile Road. Witnesses reported seeing the man stop in the middle of 26 Mile Road and attempt to dislodge the motorcycle from underneath the pick-up. When the man was unable to free the motorcycle he fled on foot. Several Officers searched the area for the man but were unable to locate him.
Several hours later Chesterfield Officers/Investigators located the man at a home in Madison Heights and took him into custody without incident. The 34 year old Rochester Hills man told Officers that he had been drinking prior to the accident and “panicked” and fled after he struck the motorcycle. The investigation is ongoing at this time and both the man and woman motorcycle riders remain in critical condition at McLaren Macomb Hospital.
