The Manchester man who fired shots in the Saline Police Department parking lot on Dec. 29, was arraigned Dec. 30. on two charges and sits in jail with a $250,000 bond.
Benjamin Beck, 40, was arraigned on charges of discharging a firearm at a building and carrying a concealed weapon in front of Magistrate Elisha Fink in 14A District Court on Dec. 3o. Beck stood mute to the charges.
At Jan. 9 probable cause conference, Judge Cedric Simpson upheld the $250,000 bond.
The case was assigned to Washtenaw Trial Court Judge Carol Kuhnke.
Washtenaw district court records show another probable cause conference at 9 a.m.
I don’t know anything about this man but given what he attempted stems from obvious mental issues, sitting in jail is not helping.
Moderate rain, with a high of 56 and low of 34 degrees. Overcast in the morning, thundery outbreaks in nearby in the afternoon, patchy rain nearby for the evening, overcast overnight.
Interesting. As the schools are funded by tax-payer dollars, "the people" paid for that report . . . . and it has to do with our public/publicly funded schools. Hard to understand why the Board is deciding to and/or thinks they can keep it private. Disappointing (to put it mildly) and concerning.
