Medical marijuana grower faces murder charge

A Michigan medical marijuana grower has been charged with murder after authorities say he chased and fatally shot one of two men who tried to rob him.

AnnArbor.com reports 50-year-old Robert Goupill of Milan, about 35 miles southwest of Detroit, was arraigned Monday in Monroe County. He's charged in Thursday's shooting death of 28-year-old Jerald Ogden of Ypsilanti.

Goupill also is charged with manufacturing a controlled substance. Police say he was growing more marijuana than allowed under Michigan law.

Goupill is due back in court March 19. A message seeking comment was left today with lawyer Edward Swinkey.

A medical examiner said Ogden died of a shotgun wound to the back. Police say the shooting happened about 200 yards from Goupill's home.

The other robbery suspect was being sought.

EVERETT -- Police on Wednesday were canvassing the View Ridge-Madison neighborhood in Everett after a man was found dead there the night before. A neighbor spotted the man on the ground outside a vacant house at 22 Madison St. He called 911 about 6:20 p.m. The man had obvious signs of trauma to his torso, police said. He looked to be in his late 20s or early 30s. The Everett Major Crimes Unit is investigating the death as a homicide, Lt. Robert Goetz said. Detectives declined to say more about how they believe the man may have died. There are no identified suspects or motives. Detectives received a search warrant around 11:45 p.m. Tuesday and collected evidence at the scene. They returned Wednesday afternoon to look for clues in the daylight, Goetz said.

The boy, identified as "A.J." in court papers, ingested a lethal amount of salicylates, a chemical common in aspirin and other over-the-counter drugs.
