The Detroit man who entered a guilty
plea in connection with a home invasion
in Northville Township could still face up
to life inprison.
Deamo L. Lately, 32, entered a guilty
plea to one count of armed robbery in
exchange for dropping another 17
charges stemming from a violent home
invasion April 30, 2017. He entered the
plea the same day his trial on all the
charges was set to begin inWayne County
Circuit Court before Judge Wanda Evans.
He was expected to be sentenced on the
robbery charge thisweek.
The break-in occurred at a home near
FiveMile and Bradner. One of the victims
previously testified that she returned
home to find two gunmen in her home
and that one of them brandished and
then fired a rifle. She identified Lately as
one of the robbers and the man who fired
the rifle. She said that Lately forced her
to strip naked and then barricaded her
inside a closet using furniture against the
door. She also told the court her boyfriend
was forced to lie down on a bedroom floor
by the secondmanwho had a handgun.
Latelywas arrested last October. Police
have not arrested a second subject in the
incident.
The Canton Dog Park will once again
host the annual free “Bark in the Park”

20. Attendees and their dogs can enjoy live
entertainment, shopping and prize pack
give-a-ways while learning about and try-
ing the off-leash dog park, located on
DentonRoad, northof CherryHill Road.
“This annual event is the perfect
opportunity for dog owners to come and
try out the Canton Dog Park for free,” said
Recreation Specialist Laura Mortier.
“Plus, it's a great chance to meet other
local dog owners, get some great informa-
tion and coupons, and give your canine
companion a great tail-wagging experi-
ence.”
Dog park membership is not required
to take part in this event. In order to
attend, however, non-members of the
Canton Dog Park must present a valid
Canton dog license, which can be

to-date distemper and rabies vaccina-
tions, signed by an accredited veterinari-
an. No pre-registration is required for
this event.
The Canton Dog Park has 6 acres of
fenced-in, outdoor space for dogs to run
and play off-leash, with specific rules to
help ensure a safe and positive experi-
ence for everyone. The park is divided
into a large dog section for animals over
20 pounds, and small dog section for ani-
mals under 20 pounds. Annual member-
ships for the dog park are $25 for Canton

The Plymouth Historical Museum
kitchenwill soonundergo a facelift thanks
to a grant from the Margaret Dunning
Foundation.
The foundation recently awarded a
$17,000 grant to the museum for new
kitchen equipment and cabinet renova-
tions. The upgrades will help accommo-
date the growing number of guests and
members who attend museum events, a
spokesperson noted. The upgrades will
also be helpful to better accommodate
room rentals, which have increased, she
added.
Additionally, with the kitchen remod-
eled, the meeting room will be more
appealing as a rental to community
groups and families, she said.
The proposed kitchen remodel
includes demolition, framing, drywall,
plumbing, electrical work, carpentry, new
countertops, a new replacement dish-
washer and the addition of a second dish-
washer, two wall ovens, and a new inte-
grated coffee maker. Another improve-
ment will be a much-needed exhaust sys-
tem, which will cut down on smoke issues
and visits from the fire department. The
current kitchen set up does not include an
external exhaust system, the spokesper-
son said..
The total project cost is $20,700. The
museum has received $3,700 in donations
for the appliances and the balance will be
covered by the grant. The remodeling will
be done byDJLBuilders of Plymouth.
The Plymouth Historical Society,
owner of the Plymouth Historical
Museum, is a private, 501(c)3 charitable
organization. It does not receive any gov-
ernment funds but continues to thrive
through the nearly 400 active members,
corporate donations, admission receipts,
myriad events, and more than 8,000 serv-
ice hours fromapproximately 100 dedicat-
ed volunteers.
The Margaret Dunning Foundation
was founded byMrs. Dunning in 1997. The
foundation supports charitable programs
primarily in western Wayne County and
educational programs focused on the
automobile and transportation industries.
The museum is located at 155 S. Main
St. in downtown Plymouth. For more
