Today's riddle: Do you know what the two sides of a circle are? 🤔 (Answer below!)
• Marshall Crenshaw Shares '(We're Gonna) Shake Up Their Minds' (gratefulweb.com) — Marshall Crenshaw is bringing his fall tour to Ferndale's Magic Bag Theater on October 29, giving local fans a chance to hear songs from his new archival collection live. The release gathers rare demos, studio cuts, and performances from 1984–87, and the tour includes several Midwest and East Coast stops with tickets available online.
• St. Clair Shores pauses Flock camera program amid privacy concerns over data sharing (wxyz.com) — St. Clair Shores has temporarily shut off its Flock license plate cameras amid mounting privacy concerns, while noting that other cities, including Ferndale, have already canceled their Flock contracts. For Ferndale residents, the debate highlights how neighboring communities are rethinking data-sharing with law enforcement and federal agencies, and could influence future regional decisions on surveillance technology.
• Court prevented from tracking suspect in Chipotle worker stabbing (detroitnews.com) — A man accused of fatally stabbing a Chipotle worker in downtown Detroit had an earlier warrant tied to a June 26 public-urination citation in Ferndale, where he missed an August court date. Officials now say gaps in mental health treatment oversight and missing follow-up paperwork may have left the court unable to monitor his mandated care.
