unsuccessful in apprehending the suspect.
Todd Mutchler, Northville Township
public safety director, said many pieces of
evidence were recovered in the ongoing
multi-jurisdictional investigation. He said
the suspect's method of operation is simi-
lar to the CVS robbery last week and is
believed to be related to other armed rob-
beries in the area.
Mutchler said charges would be deter-
mined following completion of a full inves-
tigation. He asked if area residents could
review their home surveillance recording
for any suspicious related to the incident
and contact the Northville Police if any-
thing is found.
“Our team did some great police work
on this case,”Mutchler saidSunday.
He added that no additional informa-
tion, including the name of the suspect,
would be released until the Wayne County
Prosecutor made a charging decision in
the investigation.
