A convicted sex offender already on probation for home invasion and criminal sexual conduct is back behind bars in Warren, accused of spying on a young girl through her bathroom window. Police say a mother’s call sent officers to a Pinto Street home, where they found 22-year-old Justin Moore hiding in the backyard before he ran through nearby yards and was caught. Investigators later found digital evidence suggesting a broader pattern of stalking. He now faces multiple felony charges, including stalking a minor.

St. Clair County residents needing emergency or overnight hospital care will soon have to travel elsewhere. Henry Ford Health’s River District Hospital is shutting down its inpatient and emergency departments, shifting those services to nearby facilities. Health officials say the aging building needed costly repairs that weren’t sustainable long-term. The hospital will keep offering primary care, infusion treatments, labs, pharmacy and imaging on-site. For emergency care, patients in East China Township will now be directed to Henry Ford’s Medical Center in New Baltimore, the closest ER option.

Sanilac County officials have confirmed enough valid signatures were collected to move forward with a recall attempt against Watertown Township Treasurer Sheila Coats.

Under state law, the recall could now land on the November ballot. Coats has fired back, filing her own recall petitions against two fellow township officials. The Watertown Township Board meets Tuesday at 6 p.m.
