CARO, MI Back in 2019, an Independence Day gathering in rural Tuscola County took a violent turn that culminated in a 38-year-old man suffering a shotgun blast to his head. Though the 20-year-old Bay City man accused of pulling the trigger is charged with several felonies, he’s maintained he fired the gun to defend a woman who was being assaulted by the older man.
A year and a half later, the case has proceeded to trial.
The trial of Trevor J. Payne, now 22, began Wednesday, Feb. 17, in Tuscola County Circuit Court. Payne is charged with single counts of assault with intent to murder, assault with intent to do great bodily harm less than murder, carrying a dangerous weapon with unlawful intent, plus three counts of assault with a dangerous weapon and six counts of felony firearm.

(SANILAC COUNTY) – In a battle with local and state officials that has gone on for weeks,
Troy Tank had his day in court last week in regards to whether or not the Sandusky Diner, formerly the Big Boy restaurant, would be staying open.
Ultimately, for now, the popular business is closed pending further legal action.
When the MDHHS ordered restaurants to close indoor dining in November, the Tank family decided to stay open.
Following what some have described as a heated encounter with Sanilac County Health Department Director Bryant Wilkie, the business continued to serve food while racking up fines of more than $10,000.

After their presentation, commissioners discussed the possibility of hiring a money manager to consolidate all the available cash to invest and making the treasurer’s office be responsible for the cash flow projections.
However, no action was taken.
In other money matters, commissioners approved a resolution for the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act. By doing that, they made available the supplemental Community Development Block Grant and Emergency Solutions Grant ESG-CV funding for grants to prevent, prepare for, and respond to coronavirus.
