Michigan soldier killed in Iraq

Soldier from St. Clair Shores killed

A U.S. Army military police officer from St. Clair Shores died in Iraq on Thursday when an explosive device detonated near his unit, the Department of Defense announced Friday.

Staff Sgt. Donald L. Munn II, 25, was leading his platoon on a mission when he sensed something was wrong, according to his grandmother, Dorothy Richards of St. Clair Shores. Munn focused on getting all of his men out safely but he was the last to leave when the bomb exploded.
