Theft of medical marijuana is believed to be the reason for a home invasion gone awry over the weekend in Sanilac County’s Greenleaf Township. Early Sunday morning, four individuals illegally entered the homeowner’s property, shooting him in the leg. The owner then returned fire, killing two suspects. The two remaining suspects were arraigned yesterday on a multitude of charges. Stephen Shimmel and Preston Jack are being held in the Sanilac County Jail on charges of armed robbery, first degree home invasion, and possession of firearms by a felon, among many others. They are being held without bond.
