Woman’s sliding door shattered during suspected Pontiac apartment shooting
Police are investigating a shooting at an apartment complex in Pontiac. One person said they heard 30-40 shots fired.
MONDAY NEWS HIT – Investigators were at a Pontiac apartment complex early Monday after reports of dozens of shots being fired.
“I ran to my kids’ room, and then I ran downstairs to go see what was all hit,” said Daja Benion, who lives at Spring Lake Village Apartments.
Benion’s sliding glass door was shot out and there was glass all over.
“Nothing but glass on my carpet,” she said. “Nothing but glass.”
A caller told FOX 2 that they heard 30-40 shots fired at the complex near Auburn and S. Martin Luther King Jr.
Michigan men caught with fentanyl in West Virginia
Two Michigan men are in custody in West Virginia after police say they had “an extremely large quantity of fentanyl” and cash in their vehicle.
St. Albans police say they tried to stop a vehicle that Levonte Marvontez Bell, 36, of Detroit, and Jaylen Dalaino Bell, 28, of DeWitt, were inside on Saturday. However, the driver took off and led officers on a chase.
When the vehicle eventually stopped due to mechanical issues, police arrested the men and searched the vehicle, finding the drugs and money. Police also believe the men threw some fentanyl out of the vehicle while they were running.
Both Levonte and Jaylen are charged with intent to deliver fentanyl and reckless fleeing. They are being held in the South Central Regional Jail on $25,000 cash bonds.
Gas prices soar
Your wallet is going to feel it if you need to fill up soon – gas prices are the highest they’ve been in three months.
Drivers are paying an average of $3.67 per gallon for regular unleaded, with a 15-gallon tank of gas costing about $55. This is 11 cents more than this time last month.
While prices have spiked, they are still 56 cents less per gallon than this time last year, and a 15-gallon tank is about $23 cheaper than 2022’s highest price last June.
And this trend could continue.
“With supplies tight, if demand climbs, pump prices will likely follow suit,” said Adrienne Woodland, spokesperson, AAA-The Auto Club Group.

Chester Frazier was appreciative of his time spent coaching at his alma mater Illinois. And the success that came with it with two championships in three years and an Elite 8 run in the tournament.
But Frazier wanted an opportunity to further grow in his role in order to prepare him for his next step up the coaching ladder and West Virginia provided that.
“It just needed something that I thought fit me a little bit more. And again, as I continue my journey to be a head coach, I wanted to learn something different,” he said.
It was a chance for Frazier to get back to his East Coast roots considering he’s from Baltimore and as well as work with a head coach in Darian DeVries that he had often watched from afar given how the pair aligned offensively and defensively.
The two had not met each other, but Frazier had done his homework watching Drake games as well as talking to others in the industry.
“He’s a winner, does things the right way. And I heard nothing but glowing remarks from my peers on his coaching style. So it drew me here,” he said.
Combine those two factors and it made the job an attractive position for him when it came open.
“It made a lot of sense when the job came open to make the move,” he said.
On the offensive end, West Virginia will continue to use a lot of ball movement with good sets and actions. Overall, it will be selfless basketball and they want to get out and play in the open court with the ability to slow it down when they need to. On the defensive end, the Mountaineers will be tough and stingy with a physical and connected brand of basketball which they’ve shown to date.
Some of the identity of this current team is still developing but the team is competing at a higher level than when the team first arrived and roles are starting to be established.
“I think connectivity has been the biggest piece. They’re getting along, they love each other and they’re playing hard. And that’s the only thing you can ask as a new group with so many new guys,” he said.
