Good morning, Sterling Heights.

On July 28th, heavy rain overwhelmed drainage systems in Macomb County by flooding streets in St. Clair Shores and on I-94, leaving several drivers stranded as they waited for tow trucks to arrive.

The Macomb County Sheriff’s Office asked for public help in finding 12-year-old Isabella Cekala who was last seen in Romeo on Monday morning near the Mobil Gas Station at 32 Mile and Romeo Plank+ she may be having a mental health crisis and was reportedly speaking with someone online.

On July 29th a domestic dispute led to a shooting at the Pomeroy senior living facility in Sterling Heights—police reported a woman was hurt and a man was arrested near 15 Mile and Dequindre.

A 16-year-old was charged with illegal explosive use after reportedly throwing fireworks at people during Sterlingfest last week—charges include placing explosives near property causing physical injury, possessing explosives with the intent to terrorize and assaulting a police officer when a firework struck his arm.

Detroit Metro Airport used the ILS-Y landing system during recent severe weather and federal safety inspectors are reviewing its risks while Rep. Dingell sent a letter to the FAA asking to suspend its use until the safety issues are fixed.
