FBI and state police vehicles were in a neighborhood near Fordson High School in Dearborn. An investigator was seen walking out of a house, grabbing some items from an FBI evidence truck and returning inside.

Two judges could rule as soon as Friday on whether President Donald Trump’s administration must replenish SNAP food aid benefits for November despite the government shutdown.

The grocery-buying ability for about 1 in 8 Americans could hinge on the outcomes.

The permit was finally issued on Oct. 1. Read more here.
