WARREN, MI — Two men are facing charges after they stole roughly 25 boxes of frozen fish from a food warehouse in Macomb County, the Macomb County Prosecutor's Office said.

Erwin Wilson, 30, was charged with Embezzlement less than $100,000 (15 Year Felony). A judge set Wilson's bond at $20,000 and scheduled his next court date for May 25.

Michael Mitchell, 50, charged with Receiving and Concealing Stolen Property more than $1,000, less than $20,000 (Five Year Felony). A judge set Mitchell's bond at $25,000 and scheduled his next court date for May 25.
