Steven Yeun gives shoutout to Taylor, Michigan, during Oscar telecast
At Sunday night s Oscars, Taylor, Michigan, received an unexpected shoutout from a former resident.
Best Actor nominee Steven Yeun, while presenting the award for Best Visual Effects, told a story about seeing Terminator 2: Judgment Day at a theater in Taylor with his mother in 1991.
Yeun, who graduated from Troy High School in 2003, lived in Taylor for a brief time before his family moved to Troy. When I was 7, living in Taylor, Michigan, my mother took me to watch Terminator 2 at the theaters. I m pretty sure she didn t know what the movie was about, Yeun said. And to her and my surprise, we got to see some.

Indicted Mayor Rick Sollars is ineligible to appear on the August primary ballot over his failure to file campaign finance reports and pay thousands of dollars in late fees, a city official ruled late Friday.
Taylor City Clerk Cynthia Bower told The Detroit News on Saturday that she made the difficult ruling late Friday after carefully investigating a challenge to Sollars candidacy submitted by a City Council hopeful earlier in the week. I must protect the integrity of the election, that is No. 1, Bower said. It s a difficult decision to make, but I had no choice but to not certify his candidacy. The law is very clear and the candidate must not have any outstanding fines or reports. I had to follow the law.
