In Port Huron, the St. Clair County Drug Task Force made two major busts on last Wednesday. Officers stopped a Detroit man near the I-94 connector and 32nd Street, discovering cocaine and heroin hidden in a child’s car seat after a K9 search. He now faces multiple felony drug charges. Later that evening, investigators raided a home on the 1400 block of 27th Street in Port Huron Township, finding meth, pills, and a shotgun. The 45-year-old resident was arrested and charged with several felonies.

In nearby Fort Gratiot Township, authorities say a 55-year-old man took his own life Thursday as deputies arrived to arrest him on a criminal sexual conduct warrant. The St. Clair County Sheriff’s Office says detectives got to the home on Carrigan Road just before 12:30 p.m. and heard a gunshot as they approached. The man was found inside with a self-inflicted wound and later died. Investigators also found a device that looked like a homemade bomb, but it turned out to be a realistic fake. No one else was hurt.
