Woman sitting alone in high school parking lot gets carjacked
Sebewaing Township, MI (WNEM) A mid-Michigan high school turned into a crime scene after a carjacking started a multi-state hunt for the suspect.
Officers said an 18-year-old woman was sitting alone in a vehicle at USA High School in Sebewaing Township when she was approached by an unknown man who threatened her with a knife. He then stole her car.
Police believe it all began when the suspect stole a car from the Ludington area in Mason County on Thursday. They said he drove that car across the state to Sebewaing, where a high school student was waiting in her grandmother’s car in the high school parking lot at a game.

The Caseville and Unionville-Sebewaing Area school districts received grants from the Michigan College Access Network this past year, helping students stay connected during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The USA school district had received a $10,000 grant in the late winter/early spring of 2020 for acquiring Wi-Fi hotspots, which were given out to students who were at home during the lockdown of spring 2020.
George Rierson, the superintendent of USA Schools, said the district ended up with 75 hotspots total, with some of them purchased through another grant the district received. He said the hotspots have been helpful for seniors who were transitioning into becoming college students.
