Buel Township, MI – The Sanilac County Sheriff’s Office is calling on local residents to step forward with information regarding a recent illegal garbage dumping incident. Between September 24 and September 25, several items were unlawfully discarded along Wagner Road, just south of Marlette Road in Buel Township, highlighting a disturbing trend of unsanctioned waste disposal in the area.

Sgt. Shelly Park of the Sheriff’s Office emphasized the need for public assistance in identifying those responsible, citing the incident as a prime example of how such actions degrade the quality of life in rural communities.
