AG declines charges in fatal Ypsilanti deputy shooting

Attorney General Dana Nessel declined to charge three deputies who fatally shot a man after a January 6 chase; state police reportedly found no gun in the van. The sheriff’s internal investigation continues and the deputies remain on leave. Reported shot counts conflict—about 34 in earlier coverage versus 27 cited by the family’s lawyers—so the figure remains unsettled.
