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.

The Sandusky Community Schools Board voted to expand its School Resource Officer program while rejecting a new state funding offer. Superintendent Kurt Dennis said the $125-per-student grant could force the district to give up legal protections if a “mass casualty” occurred, putting the district at risk of lawsuits. Dennis assured families that safety upgrades, camera improvements, and mental health supports will continue using district funds. He stressed protecting students and staff legally is more important than accepting money with risky conditions.

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.
