James Kuntz, 63, was last seen at the Detroit Yacht Club on Belle Isle on May 10. The U.S. Coast Guard spent the next few days searching for him, but without any luck.
The state management of Belle Isle has brought more outside visitors, funding and upkeep to the island. But some say it also has led to more challenges with park access and a heightened police presence that created an atmosphere that makes young Detroiters feel less welcome.
A Clarkston man is accused of telling a Department of Natural Resources conservation officer that he was a police officer in Waterford Township. Authorities said the man had a fake badge and weapons.
