260004438 – Arson Investigation

On 04/14/2026, the Adrian Police Department was dispatched to Crossroads Community Church after it was discovered an unknown male had attempted to set fire to the church’s handicap ramp during the early morning hours. A review of surveillance footage depicted a lighter skinned, slightly heavy-set male wearing a black hoodie, gray vest, white shirt, white shorts, and black shoes. This individual is observed pouring lighter fluid on the church ramp before leaving the scene on foot westbound through downtown. Below are two still images depicting the individual, and a compilation surveillance video is viewable here.

Anyone with information regarding this incident or the individual’s identity, or any witnesses that have not yet made a statement to police, should contact Detective LaMar Rufner at 517-264-4853, or submit their information via email to [email protected] or [email protected].

260003904 – Adrian College Active Shooter Threat

On 04/01/2026 at approximately 7:20pm, Officers were dispatched to Adrian College after reports of a masked individual who was threatening to “shoot up the school”. Responding Officers quickly set up a perimeter and were able to review surveillance footage depicting the involved individual – a male subject already known to law enforcement. This individual was located, searched, and no weapons were found.

A preliminary investigation indicates this was an isolated incident that occurred following an argument between this individual and a passerby near the Adrian College roundabout. There is no threat to the public, college, or surrounding businesses. This incident’s police report is being submitted to the Lenawee County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office for review and possible criminal charges.

The Adrian Police Department would like to thank the Lenawee County Sheriff's Office, Adrian Charter Township Police, Michigan State Police, and Adrian Fire Department for their assistance.
