Clyde Township Farm Raid

More than 100 live animals and nearly 100 dead ones were found on a Clyde Township property after St. Clair County Animal Control and the Sheriff’s Department launched a welfare check. Officials say ducks, chickens, and goats were living without proper food, water, or shelter. Interim Director Rachel Walch says too many people start small farms without realizing how much daily care livestock need. The animals were surrendered and are now getting medical attention as the investigation continues.

Suspicious Letter Shuts Sandusky City Hall

Sandusky’s municipal building was closed shortly after 2 p.m. Thursday when police responded to a suspicious letter. With Police Chief Steve McKenny out of town, the Sanilac County Sheriff’s Office and several local agencies, including fire and emergency management, stepped in. Federal investigators say similar letters have been sent to government offices around Michigan, some marked with odd stamps reading “EBSCO,” “777,” or “GARRITY.” No hazardous materials have been found, but employees are urged to stay alert and report any suspicious mail.
