Police are investigating the theft of a tractor from a Lodi Township barn that was reported Wednesday.
Deputies from the Washtenaw County Sheriff's Office were called to a residence in the 7000 block of Weber Road for a report of a breaking and entering of a barn.

"As local residents who drive through the area daily, you have a good feel for vehicles, people and behavior that does or does not belong. Trust your instincts. We do."
