The man who held a 7-year-old
child hostage at gunpoint follow-
ing an exchange of gunfire with
officers remains inpolice custody.
The man was arrested shortly
after 7 p.m. last Friday after he
surrendered to Michigan State
Police and freed a 7-year-old child
he had briefly held hostage in a
Romulus neighborhoodhome.
The incident began, according
to police reports, as an attempted
car jacking at about 4 p.m. at the
Marathon gas station at Wayne
and Wick roads in Romulus. His
attempt failed and the man
reportedly fled the scene on foot,
running into backyards and over
fences in neighborhoods near
Wick towardVining roads.
In one of those back yards, in
the 34700 block of Stewart, he
encountered resident Kyle Brown
outside with the family dog, a 2-
year-old pit bull. The dog report-
edly chased the suspect and the
man shot and wounded the dog in
the facewith a handgun as he con-
tinued to flee over a fence. He
was spotted by police officers and
refused to drop his weapon as
ordered, and officers then
exchanged gunfire with the sus-
pect as he jumped back over the
fence, returning toBrown's yard.
The suspect then forcibly
entered Brown's home where two
children were inside, Brown's 10-
year-old son and his 7-year-old
friend. Brownwas able to coax his
son out of the home, away from
the wounded gunman, but the 7-
year-old froze and was subse-
quently held hostage in the home
as police from multiple depart-
ments closed in, according to
reports of the incident.
The suspect engaged in a barri-
caded standoff with police officers
and Michigan State Troopers who
eventually talked him into surren-
dering hisweapon and agreeing to
his arrest at about 7:30 p.m.
According to Michigan State
Police Lt. Michael Shaw, the sus-
pect was not expecting children to
be inside the house after he was
shot and chose the house at ran-
dom. The dog, Petey, had to be
euthanizeddue to the extent of his
injuries, according toBrown.
Police have not released any
further information about the sus-
pect, his injuries or pending
charges.

When Lorraine and Keith
McArthur of Westland learned
their son, Jaxson, 9, was having
speech delays at about age 2,
they weren't sure where to turn.
They tried in-home therapy, and
then a friend made a referral to
programs through the public
schools. It was there that
McArthur learned of the
Summer Speech Therapy pro-
gram at Beaumont Hospital,
Wayne. She liked the idea of
Jaxson working one-on-one with
a speech language pathologist
during summer break.
“I wanted to create continuity
for Jaxson, so the progress he
made during the school year
wouldn't be lost over the sum-
mer,” said McArthur. “I believe
he's benefitting from the thera-
py.”
Today, Jaxson is working with
his favorite therapist, speech
language pathologist Deborah
Noble, whom he calls “Miss
Deb.” This is his sixth year in the
program. His mother said he has
made significant progress with
Miss Deb. He practices different
words and exercises, expanding
what he learned at school by
working with his care team at
camp.
“Childrenwho have a difficult
time communicating can also
have a difficult time interacting
with their peers, doing well in
school or performing many tasks
their peers take for granted,”
said Dipti Christian, rehabilita-
tion manager at Beaumont
Hospital, Wayne. “That's where
the Summer Speech Therapy
program comes in. The program
pairs children with speech ther-
apists who work with them indi-
vidually to overcome their com-
munication barriers, which can
also help improve their school
performance.”
Accredited by the American
Speech Language Hearing
Association, the program is
offered annually and is support-
ed with funding from the
Beaumont Health Foundation
and Beaumont, Wayne adminis-
tration. Sessions are for children
age 2 to 14.
Participants must have indi-
vidualized education plans to
apply for enrollment, and a
referral from a teacher.
Individual enrollment for the
full seven week program costs
$350. Many children apply for
and receive aBeaumont scholar-
ship, but theymust attend all ses-
sions in order to receive funding.
The seven-week program is
growing from when it started
with only eight children in 2006.
“We have 44 children, so this
is incredible growth,” said
Christian. “We have 14 returning
students and 30 new families
this year. It is very moving to see
how the children are progress-
ing and our impact on them.”
Shari Sposato, of Taylor,
enrolled her daughter, Giuliana
in the summer speech program
because she has trouble enunci-
ating words. Giuliana turns 3 in
September, and Sposato said
another child in their extended
family also had a speech delay,
but overcame it by beginning
speech therapy at an early age.
“I wanted to enroll her in this
program so she can get a head
start before beginning pre-
school,” said Sposato. She ini-
tially attended speech therapy
camp with her daughter, but
decided to give Giuliana the
opportunity to try her first ses-
sion alone.
Feeling like a mom waving
goodbye to her child on her first
school bus ride, Sposato was
waiting with anticipation for the
session to end. “This feels a little
like her first day of school,” she
said.
The program runs from June
to early August. Program organ-
izers celebrated the end of the
program for all participants with
an outdoor celebration Aug. 3.
The Summer Olympics-themed
party featured games, pizza and
other treats, and a Beaumont
teddy bear and book gift for each
child.
“This is a truly unique pro-
gram that we're happy to be able
to provide to the community,”
Christian said. “It helps kids be
kids. It's a great feeling, knowing
that we helped these children
learn how to interact better with
their peers-and that they had fun
doing it.”
