Huron County Man Loses Hunting Rights

A Huron County man will lose his hunting privileges for years after a jury found he helped organize an illegal deer hunt. Prosecutor Timothy Rutkowski says 61-year-old Christopher Ahearn of Kinde was convicted for aiding the unlawful taking of deer during a restricted season in Lincoln Township back in December of ’24. Testimony from hunters, along with DNR evidence and messages, showed he coordinated the hunt. Jurors reached a verdict in under two hours. Ahearn cannot hunt for the rest of this year plus five more.

Crack Sealing Project

Drivers across Michigan’s Thumb region should expect delays as road work ramps up. The Michigan Department of Transportation is spending about $475,000 to seal pavement cracks on key highways in Lapeer, Tuscola, Huron, and Sanilac counties. Work starts May 11th on M-24 in Lapeer County, then moves through nearby counties, covering routes like M-25, M-46, and M-53. Crews will fix cracks to extend road life and prevent bigger damage. Motorists should plan for intermittent lane closures through late June, depending on weather.
