A teenager from Macomb County is finally speaking out after years of online harassment. 19-year-old DJ Phillips says a girl began posing as him on social media, using his photos and videos to spread lies and start fake relationships. The impersonation lasted three years — fueling rumors, bullying, and even physical confrontations. In court, DJ said the ordeal shattered his confidence, cost him friends, and nearly drove him to suicide. DJ told the judge the damage to his reputation still follows him today, even at Michigan State University.

Deputies, firefighters, and EMS crews responded just after 3:30. All students were checked at the scene, and no one needed to go to the hospital.
