Port Huron residents are learning more about a dangerous late night chase that started on Lapeer Road and stretched through St. Clair and Sanilac counties. Deputies say a Port Huron woman sped off during a traffic stop, swerving into oncoming lanes and pushing through three townships before crashing into a tree behind Zimmer Auto Sales in Worth Township. She was treated at McLaren Port Huron and jailed. Officials say the car wasn’t registered or insured. The 39-year-old now faces multiple felony and misdemeanor charges, and a judge has denied bond.

Port Huron Township man Ethan Morgan was resentenced Monday for sharing child sexual abuse material online. Judge Daniel Damman reduced Morgan’s minimum prison term from 18 to 16 months but kept the maximum at seven-and-a-half years. Damman noted Morgan had a troubled childhood, moving 19 times before age 18 with little supervision, but said that didn’t excuse his crimes. Morgan, arrested in September of ’24, has already served 14 months and must register as a sex offender for 25 years after release.

Almont High’s football season ended Saturday in a 25-19 triple-overtime loss to Jackson Lumen Christi in the Division 6 state semifinals at Wildcat Stadium. Jacob Stewart ran for two touchdowns, and Blake Lane threw a short TD pass, but missed extra points in overtime kept the Raiders from winning. Almont’s defense made key stops, including a blocked point-after-touchdown and late fourth-down stands, but Lumen Christi scored the final touchdown in the third overtime. The Raiders finish 12-1, marking their third state semifinal since ’19.
