Chase Ends in Rollover Crash
A police chase through Sanilac County ended in a rollover crash Monday night. Deputies say they tried stopping a Ford Ranger around 8 p.m. near Cass and Main in Minden City, but the driver took off. The chase lasted about sixteen minutes through several townships before the truck lost control and flipped into a ditch in Austin Township. Fire crews freed the 48-year-old Minden Township man, who had minor injuries. After treatment at Deckerville Hospital, he was jailed on fleeing charges and several active warrants.

Dion Cox Returns to SC4
Nearly 25 years after first stepping onto the St. Clair County Community College court as a recruit, Detroit native Dion Cox is back — this time as head coach of the Skippers women’s basketball team. Cox, now 44, replaces Mike Groulx, who recently stepped down. A former SC4 player and long-time assistant coach, Cox later led high-school programs across St. Clair County, including Algonac. SC4 officials say his passion and experience make him the right leader to guide the Skippers.
