SOUTHFIELD, Mich. (myFOXDetroit.com) -
"Crime, crime, and schools" – focusing
on those will help grab the next title of Mayor of Detroit, according to former Detroit
Police Chief Ike McKinnon.
This advice comes after rumors that retiring DMC CEO Mike Duggan is interested
in running for Mayor of Detroit. Duggan announced his retirement to employees Thursday, November 8th. His term will end December 31st.
According to McKinnon anyone bringing change from the outside would be
welcome to lead the city.
The only person who has officially put their name in the running for the
next term is State Representative Lisa Howze. Current Mayor Dave Bing has not
yet given word on whether he will run again.
