Detroit looks to retrain bus operators following horse incident

The city of Detroit is retraining its bus operators after a widely publicized bus stop where two horses boarded. A video from a city bus taken Nov. 7 shows the bus driver pulling up to a stop where two men on horses are waiting. The driver then lowers the ramp and lets the men walk and guide the horses on the bus. "If they can get in here, it is what it is," the bus driver says in the video. He can also be heard asking if the horses are service animals as they board the bus. More: Horses on a bus? Detroit officials say the video is real In a statement released Friday, DDOT officials said they reviewed the footage. "While DDOT welcomes service animals to ride the bus when they meet the requirements under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), it appears that these horses were brought on the bus for other reasons," the statement reads, adding that the actions in the video "were meant to draw awareness to a positive cause" but did not specify what the cause was. DDOT said the situation presented safety concerns for other passengers on public transit and for the horses involved

High school football: Breaking down the top games in Round 3

Detroit Edison coach Chan Brock wasn’t going to get caught looking ahead. With Edison (10-1) facing Clinton in the Division 6 district final last Saturday, he could have spent the night before scouting Ecorse (10-1) for a potential regional final matchup between the Charter School Conference rivals on Saturday, Nov. 14. Instead, he used that time to get an extra night of preparation for Clinton. It paid off when Edison pulled off a 26-24 comeback victory to win its third district title in four seasons. But the second Brock handed the championship trophy to his captains, his attention shifted to Ecorse, which Edison narrowly defeated 30-20 in a de facto CSC Gold Division title game in Week 8. More: How a boxing gym helped Detroit Edison football handle adversity “Ecorse now has our full attention,” Brock said. “Obviously, we played them before, but we know it’s not going to be the same team. We know they’re going to play us harder, so we’ve got to play harder, too.” That’s a scary thought considering how well Edison played against Clinton, which was a 15-point favorite according to the analytics released by high school football website Goosepoop.
