Highland Park agreed to settle a lawsuit brought by a couple whose building city officials seized in 2020, then offered to return in exchange for two new police cars, for $300,000.
Earlier this week, the city requested the state look into its finances, but a former mayor of the city is now saying the problem started from decisions made in Lansing.
An anonymous philanthropist and minority business leaders are pledging $10 billion to Highland Park. However, city leaders are skeptical about this money and where it is coming from.
