Good morning, Ann Arbor.

One person got minor burns in a house fire started by gasoline during motorcycle repairs on the 1100 block of Gott Street in Ann Arbor on April 27 — fire crews quickly controlled the blaze and cut damage to about $100,000 — saving most of the home and its belongings.

Ann Arbor fire crews responded to a structure fire in the 3100 block of Wolverine Drive on Sunday, April 27 at 9:36 p.m. and prevented flames from entering the Colonial Square Cooperative building — limiting damage to the porch, electrical service and air conditioning, with officials saying the cause is under investigation and no one was injured.

Richard Brewer, a 34-year-old man from Ypsilanti accused of fatally stabbing Nathan Cebulsky on July 8 in Leoni Township, fled before police arrived and was arrested at 1:50 p.m. in Ann Arbor—he waived his preliminary examination on April 25 and now faces charges of open murder, home invasion and interfering with electronic communications causing death.

Gerald Jones said his mother's relationship with Luke Junior Edwards was troubled and controlling, with Edwards keeping him away from home and later being accused of killing 66-year-old Donna Marie Johnson after a money dispute — his trial resumes today after he appeared in court in a wheelchair.

A jury was chosen for the trial of Luke Junior Edwards — a Ypsilanti Township man accused of killing his wife Donna Marie Johnson, whose body was found with nine wounds and a note reading 'forgive me father' on April 11.

The trial is running this week in Washtenaw County Trial Court, and prosecutors began calling witnesses around 1:30 p.m. Monday.

A new documentary titled 'One to One: John and Yoko' revisits John Lennon and Yoko Ono’s 1971 performance at the John Sinclair Freedom Rally at Crisler Arena and its role in shaping Ann Arbor’s cultural history.

The film was shown at the Michigan Theater on April 25 and uses rare footage and recordings—like phone calls and live moments—to reveal key historical details.

Trinity Health Ann Arbor Hospital is launching a two-year preservation project that will restore trails—remove invasive species and protect native species on 103 acres of its campus.

The project, funded by a $400,000 grant from the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation—will also improve the boardwalk and stairways and offer volunteer opportunities through the Huron River Watershed Council.

Ann Arbor leaders will hold public engagement sessions (April 30 at Malletts Creek and May 7 at Traverwood) to gather input on a draft plan that could add 30,000 to 97,000 new housing units over the next 25 years; city officials hope the plan will address the growing housing crisis.

Michigan set a program record by having three players selected in the first round of the NFL draft as seven Wolverines were picked overall.

Their rookie deals pay from $21.92 million to $40.81 million over four years while four other players earned smaller contracts.

Michigan safety Rod Moore underwent a second surgery on his left ACL to clean up the injury and is trending toward a fall return—coach Sherrone Moore said he is on track for summer workouts before joining fall camp.

Moore tore his knee last March and missed the 2024 season.
