SHELBY TOWNSHIP, Mich. – Neighbors in a Shelby Township subdivision said they were stunned to learn two people in their neighborhood are dead, and that police have deemed it “suspicious.”
Shelby Township police have confirmed that a 26-year-old man and a 25-year-old woman were found dead and that this is a homicide situation.
Officials said the investigation stems from a discovery made at 6:35 p.m. Friday (Feb. 3) in the 5200 block of Mesa Drive, near the intersection of 26 Mile and Mound roads.
