6/10/14 - Alcohol and testosterone may have fueled some incidents at a big mud bog event last weekend in Marion Township. Michigan State Police at the Brighton Post and the Livingston County Sheriffâs Department responded to different complaints at the event held Saturday off Hinchey Road. A MSP trooper arrived around 6:30pm to find a large party and learned that a fight had occurred earlier and was also advised that a 28-year-old Pinckney woman had her legs run over by a white pickup truck. Police say she was transported by a private vehicle to an unknown hospital and the extent of her injuries is unknown at this time. No tickets or charges have been issued against the driver as the investigation is continuing. Meanwhile later that night around 9:30, Livingston County Undersheriff Mike Murphy says deputies responded to a report of larceny from a vehicle as well as a 28-year-old White Lake man who had been assaulted by an unknown white male believed to be in his 20âs. He says the victimâs girlfriend who resides in Auburn Hills stated they were headed back to the parking lot when she heard a pounding noise and witnessed her boyfriend being assaulted with a bottle of some sort. He says the suspect apparently took off after she yelled and the victim was transported to a hospital by his girlfriend, where he was treated and released. Murphy says they have no further description other than the suspect was wearing tan pants and had no shirt on. There were no other witnesses. It was estimated that there were more than 1,000 people in attendance and Murphy says the host made a statement to deputies that the event had gotten out of hand due to people posting about it on social media sites.
