Three Detroiters were charged in underage sex trafficking. Grace Nyirahabimana, Brian Ashe, and Eric Brown lured, imprisoned, and threatened a 14-year-old girl. They prostituted her all over Detroit from a Backpage ad. Unbelievable for a Detroit judge: Brown was actually denied bond, Ash’s bond is $1 million, and Grace’s bond is $250,000.

Two people fell 2 stories as an outside walkway at a Detroit apartment building collapsed. They were trapped after debris fell on top of them. Thankfully, neighbors used carjacks to lift cement so they could breathe until EMS arrived. The Detroit Fire Marshall told residents the building is condemned and used ladders to evacuate residents from upper floors.
