MELVINDALE — A man exhibiting signs of mental illness was given a ride to the Springwells Village neighborhood in Detroit the morning of July 6 after the man caused a disturbance by repeatedly yelling inside his room at the Melrose Motel, 2829 Oakwood Blvd.
Police officers had interacted with the man in the past, and were able to calm him down before providing a courtesy ride.
