The village of New Lothrop ordains: Sec. 1. Unlawfully carrying a weapon.
A person Commits the crime of unlawfully carrying a weapon if he knowingly:
a. Carries a knife concealed on or about his person; or
b. Carries a pistol concealed on or about his person; or
c. Carries a knife or pistol whether concealed or not in a vehicle that he is operating or occupying.
d. This Section does not apply to: 1. people who carry at home/business; 2. A person meeting the requirements of Sec 12/12a of Act No. 372 of the Public Acts of 1927, as amended, being Sec. 28.432, and 28.432a of the Compiled Laws of 1948.
I am unable to find a link on the newspapers article, or the online version of new lothrop's ordinances.
28.432/432a exempts police officers, and non-residence who have a cpl.
This act would make it illegal for a michigan resident to carry a concealed pistol even with cpl, or even to have one unloaded and cased in your trunk.
obviously the township attorney did not get the memo about preemption.
