A man is facing charges of disorderly conduct and resisting/obstructing police following an incident in South Lyon.
Authorities say staff members at South Lyon High School on Tuesday advised the School Resource Deputy that a suspicious vehicle with a man and a dog were parked in the staff parking lot and appeared to have been in an accident.
A Deputy with the Oakland County Sheriffâs Office Lyon Township substation located the vehicle and spoke to the driver who told the deputy he was waiting for a tow truck as his vehicle had a flat tire and body damage. As they spoke, the Deputy said he detected the odor of intoxicants, at which point the man became highly agitated and placed the dog between his legs and made repeated racial slurs directed at the Deputy and reportedly threatened to âlet his dog looseâ.
