Man wanted after stealing car with girl inside • Presidential primary preview • Missing man found dead

MONDAY NEWS HIT - While a missing child whose disappearance prompted an Amber Alert over the weekend was found, police are still looking for the suspect who took her.

Kemahanni King, 3, was in a car when it was stolen from the 15400 block of Schoolcraft at 11:15 p.m. Saturday. A few hours later, an Amber Alert was issued.

Later Sunday morning, the car was found in the area of Joy and Evergreen roads, while the girl was found safe nearby. The suspect wasn't around.

Biden-Trump discontent could bring drama to primary

Michigan voters head to the polls Tuesday for the presidential primary election.

For a primary election in which the two winners seem all but pre-determined, it could still invite some chaos.

Political experts agree that President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump are likely heading toward a rematch in the general election. That's frustrating for voters fed up with seeing the same faces running for election.

Even with a slate of candidates that may bore voters, Michigan is known to inject a little mayhem into national politics. Could it do it again?

The state Republican Party has fractured to the point that conservative voters aren't sure who is in charge of the state GOP infrastructure. Twin caucus-style conventions scheduled in early March could end with conservatives awarding two sets of delegates.

Meanwhile, fury over Biden's handling of the Israel-Gaza conflict has spurred a breakout campaign that urges Democratic supporters to vote "uncommitted" on their ballot next Tuesday. How many do so could indicate how much anger the president is facing. 

Missing man found dead in Detroit garage

A search for a missing man ended when his body was found in a garage in Detroit over the weekend.

Michael Doss II was reported missing after his family last saw him Tuesday evening. His mother Capri Landfair organized a search party, who spent days looking for the 25-year-old.

On Saturday, members of the search party found him dead less than a mile from his home, their screams alerting others to the discovery in Southwest Detroit.

"Michael wasn’t no drug dealer, wasn’t in no gang, he has no kids," Landfair said. "He’s not that type of person." 

AT&T offering credit after outage

AT&T will offer account credits to "make it right" after a massive network outage last week.

The phone carrier said it will credit customers for the average cost of a full day of service.

Small business owners may have been impacted, potentially disrupting an essential way they connect with customers."

Tens of thousands of wireless customers woke up with no cell service Thursday and "SOS" messages on their phones. The outage also extended to more than 9,000 customers of AT&T-owned Cricket Wireless.

FEMA relief center opens in Wayne County
