Teen Sentenced for Murder

Carmello Wilson, 17, was sentenced to 22 to 32 years in prison for the ’23 murder of 19-year-old Curtis “KC” Cureton in Flint. Wilson, who was charged as an adult despite being 15 at the time, shot Cureton in a parking lot near the intersection of Lapeer Avenue and 13th street, after claiming he acted in self-defense. Wilson said he feared Cureton, but the prosecution pointed out contradictions in his story, including photos where he was seen playing with a gun.

New Development Proposed in Marysville

A piece of agricultural land in Marysville could soon see new development. Interstate Capital is eyeing the plot along Range Road, between 18th Street and Cuttle Road, for a project that could include manufacturing, warehousing, or distribution. The first building would be constructed for $75-90 million, with more to follow once it’s sold. Marysville Mayor Hayman highlighted that Interstate Capital will pay for water and sewer infrastructure, offering benefits like new jobs and tax revenue. City officials plan to hold public hearings soon.
