Northville Township police

The American Islamic Community Center in Madison Heights received two threatening voicemails containing explicit death threats and demands for worshippers to leave the country, which law enforcement is investigating as a hate crime. Dawud Walid of CAIR-Michigan emphasized the seriousness of the threats amid a recent rise in anti-Muslim violence, including a San Diego mosque attack.

Northville Township police trained Ward Church's security team on active threat response using a law enforcement simulator called MILO. The training followed recent incidents at Michigan faith communities, including a shooting at a Grand Blanc church and an attack at Temple Israel, and emphasized proactive preparedness for emergencies.
