CALHOUN COUNTY, Mich. — A 19-year-old from Albion has been taken into custody after deputies say he was involved in a handful of crimes.
The Calhoun County Sheriff’s Office (CCSO) says they responded to reports of a person that might have been unconscious inside a car along 27 Mile Road in Sheridan Township on Saturday.
We’re told the car was covered with brush and parked off to the side for an hour or longer.
Deputies say the 19-year-old was found inside and that the car was stolen out of Jackson County. The car also contained a number of catalytic converters that were likely stolen, authorities explain.
