Deputies with the Oakland County Sheriffâs Office responded to the area of Milford and Wardlow Roads at approximately 7:17pm Sunday. A deputy was attempting to locate the mini-van that fled the scene when a second call came in, notifying authorities that the driver of the mini-van was being held at gun point by a male subject in the Highland Greens Mobile Home Park. Police arrived and say they found three male subjects standing over the responsible female driver, with one pointing a gun at her and another advising the deputies he had a gun under his shirt. While deputies were ordering everyone to the ground and controlling the situation, police say one of the men started aggressively approaching deputies, yelling and screaming to let his friends go. Additional deputies arrived and three total subjects were taken into custody without further incident. The responsible driver, a 35-year-old Highland Township woman, was arrested and lodged in the Oakland County Jail for felony operating while intoxicated -3rd offense â and leaving the scene of a serious injury accident. Two Highland Township men were also arrested â a 39-year-old man for felonious assault and a 35-year-old man for resisting and obstructing police. Meanwhile, police say the victim of the accident on the motorcycle was transported to Huron Valley Hospital with a broken leg and facial injuries. (JM)
