A security vehicle for Detroit Mayor Dave Bing had its tires and rims stolen when it was parked at an east-side condo building, according to officials from the Detroit Police Department and mayor’s office.
Sgt. Eren Stephens said the vehicle was assigned to the executive protection unit. According to the mayor’s office the tires were taken overnight as the vehicle was parked at the Shoreline East Condominiums.
Karen Dumas, a spokeswoman for Bing, said the mayor is not associated with the condo and wasn’t in the area when the tires were stolen.
“I’m not clear on the details of why” the vehicle was there at the time, Dumas said.
Stephens said the theft is still under investigation.
Tires had to be brought in and placed on the vehicle before it could be put on a flatbed and towed away, the mayor's office said.
"When the snows fall and the white winds blow, the lone wolf dies but the pack survives." Winter is Coming Now this is the Law of the Jungle—as old and as true as the sky; And the wolf that shall keep it may prosper, but the wolf that shall break it must die. As the creeper that girdles the tree-trunk, the Law runneth forward and back; For the strength of the Pack is the Wolf, and the strength of the Wolf is the Pack.
