TUSCOLA COUNTY, MI -- A teen faces several criminal charges after allegedly assaulting and threatening to kill several other people with a knife, police said.

At about 5 p.m. Wednesday, June 22, troopers from the Michigan State Police Caro Post responded to a felonious assault report at a residence in the 4000 block of Center Street in Fairgrove.
