Send POTUS Packing, Trustee Allegations, and a Student Hit by a Car

This week's list of the most read stories is still dominated by crime, but we're getting more well-rounded, sort of.

A political gaffe went viral and tops our list of the most read stories this week, followed by allegations against a village trustee being investigated by the Mount Pleasant Police Department.

And for the first time, we have a tie so instead of only 10 stories in our list, this week we're going for 11.

Overall, though, the top 10 list is filled with stories about crime. Only three entries - one about a student who got struck by a car, a possible court fight between Mount Pleasant and the fire union, and a piece from our opinion columnist - bumped other crime stories that punctuated the week.
