Michigan Lawmaker Arrested Following Alleged Gun Incident and Assault

Neil Friske, a conservative state representative, faces potential felony charges after an early-morning altercation in Lansing.

Police responded to reports of a man with a gun and possible shots fired, leading to Friske's arrest around 2:45 a.m.
The Ingham County Prosecutor's Office is investigating potential charges of sexual assault, assault, and a weapons offense.
Friske's campaign claims the arrest is politically motivated, coinciding with the release of absentee ballots for the upcoming primary.
Friske, a member of the Michigan House Freedom Caucus, has a history of supporting conservative policies and gun rights.
