Bloomfield Township police

A new imposter scam targeting Kirk in the Hills Presbyterian Church in Bloomfield Township, metro Detroit, has affected hundreds of parishioners over 1.5 years. Scammers used urgent emails and texts impersonating church leaders to solicit money, with some victims losing thousands via gift cards or wire transfers. The church now avoids listing staff emails and sends digital safety reminders to prevent such scams.

Bloomfield Township police arrested eight individuals for drunken driving in one week, citing a troubling trend. One case involved a driver who ran a stop sign, swerved, and failed a field sobriety test after admitting to drinking beer. Officers emphasized strict enforcement to address the issue.
