SHELBY TOWNSHIP, Mich. – A 29-year-old Shelby Township man has been bound over on second-degree murder and tampering with evidence charges in the death of a Madison Heights woman.
According to authorities, police responded to a Shelby Township apartment in July 2025 after a 911 caller hung up on dispatchers.
