In Port Huron, Friday night was all about honoring a local hockey legend. The Prowlers retired Dalton Jay’s No. 92 jersey at McMorran Arena before facing Danbury. Jay, who played seven seasons with the team, scored a franchise-best 209 goals and became a fan favorite for his dedication on and off the ice. He’s the first player in the Prowlers’ 11-year history to receive the honor. Now working at McMorran Arena, Jay says the moment celebrates not just his career but the city’s deep love for hockey.

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.

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.
