The local police department in Hancock, Michigan, has announced the identification of the individual believed to be responsible for a series of property damage incidents and the harm inflicted on an 80-year-old local resident. The suspect, as reported, was driving an All-Terrain Vehicle (ATV) during the incidents. Although the suspect’s identity has been confirmed, no additional details are currently available as the investigation is still under process.
Property destruction complaints were launched across the City of Hancock last Sunday. Law enforcement officers responded to three incidents, all believed to be politically motivated, aiming at supporters of former President Trump and law enforcement services. Two instances involved intentional vandalization of vehicles.
“We received reports of damage to two vehicles at about 4.45pm. The tire valves were removed in one vehicle, while in another case, all the windows were shattered. The suspect attempted similar kind of destruction on the vehicle tires too,” confirmed Hancock Police Chief, Tami Sleeman.
The suspect’s lawless activities escalated around 5:45pm at a home on Anthony Street. Here, an 80-year-old resident was setting up Donald Trump support signs in his lawn. Sleeman described the shocking series of events: “The driver pulled out the support signs initially. When the elderly resident attempted to restore them, the driver mercilessly ran over him and quickly fled the scene.”
The victim is reportedly in critical condition, currently admitted at the UP Health System. The severe injuries sustained by the victim include a significant brain bleed. Sleeman commented on the victim’s tragic situation stating, “We’re unsure about his recovery. Could his injuries lead to death? It seems to be a possibility.”
The police department encourages anyone with information about the ATV driver to contact them immediately. The suspect has been described as a thin individual, who might sport dreadlocks or long hair.
With the offender now identified, the city awaits the next steps law enforcement will take to ensure justice and prevent such deplorable incidents in the future.
For individuals with potential information related to this case, the City of Hancock Police Department can be contacted directly at 906-482-3102.
