Coyotes In Detroit And 5 Other Things To Know

A den of coyotes has taken up residence near downtown Detroit — specifically, in that weird no-man’s-land site of the old Brewster housing projects where I-75, I-375 and the spur to Gratiot Avenue converge. The Michigan DNR says not to worry. But if you live nearby in, say, Brush Park, you might want to keep a much closer eye on your pets.

Also: Yes, we inaccurately datelined yesterday’s episode as a Monday. It brought to mind this classic scene from “Groundhog Day.”

In other news, Dan Gilbert has a new podcast in the pipeline. It’s called “Speed of the Game,” and it has a tagline straight from a Nike ad. Hmmmm…..

Also:

• Ford plans to invest $900 million and create 900 new jobs in the coming years, mostly to build electric vehicles Downriver in Flat Rock
