Deputies Investigate Teens' Threat in Rochester Hills

Rochester Hills resident reports being harassed, threatened over money owed in marijuana sale.

A caller who told Oakland County Sheriff's officials he was harassed and threatened by some teens over owing a sum of money for a marijuana purchase opted not to press charges, according to Sheriff's officials.

According to the department, deputies responded Wednesday to Hart Middle School in Rochester Hills to investigate a report of threats made against the caller. He reported that a car with teens was at his address on Bluff Court and the teens had made a threat against him earlier in the day. He told deputies he owed the teens money for marijuana and had believed the teens may have had a gun, though he did not see a weapon.

Deputies found the teens' vehicle, a white Grand Prix, and the two occupants admitted they were looking for the caller because he owed them money, though they denied it was for a marijuana sale and insisted they did not make a physical threat. Deputies conducted a police dog search of the car but did not find anything suspicious, the department noted.
