📰 News we're reading

• St. Clair County student named in Cornell University 'gang rape' lawsuit (macombdaily.com) — Sterling Heights officials moved quickly to clarify that the city has never employed Cornell lawsuit defendant Scott Kretzschmar, after social media posts wrongly linked him to the local police department. The confusion arose because his brother Max previously worked as a Sterling Heights officer, prompting a formal city statement distancing local operations from the New York civil case.
