CLINTON TOWNSHIP (WWJ) - A Macomb County Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) office is closed on Thursday following a traffic crash that hit the building, officials said.
The Macomb County/Mount Clemens District Office at 44777 N. Gratiot Ave. in Clinton Township was forced to shutter their doors after a man crashed his vehicle into the building on Wednesday evening, causing damage.
Police said they are investigating to see if the man intentionally drove into the building or if he had some type of medical condition. He was taken to the hospital, but has no serious injuries.
Customers were directed to visit offices at 13041 E. Ten Mile Road in Warren or 41227 Mound Road in Sterling Heights if in need of in-person assistance.
Some services people can utilize without coming into the office are as follows:
• People can apply for public assistance benefits or check their existing benefits online at michigan.gov/MIBridges.
• Anyone who needs to report suspected child or vulnerable adult abuse or neglect can call the toll-free statewide hotline as usual at 1-855-444-3911.
MDHHS offices are closed Friday through Monday due to the holidays. Officials said they will announce when the Macomb County/Mount Clemens District Office will reopen at a later date.
MDHHS said they are working with the Clinton Township Police Department in its investigation. The details surrounding the crash remain unclear at this time.
