LANSING TOWNSHIP, Mich. — A 43-year-old man is in custody after police became suspicious of his behavior at the Lansing Township Hall, located at 3209 west Michigan Avenue, Wednesday morning.
The man drove a vehicle to the building around 9 a.m. this morning, then left and drove back in a different vehicle, leaving it at the building.

There were no injuries and no harmful materials found at the scene.
The van, which was left at the building by the 43-year-old man was towed away from the building around 10 a.m.

Traffic was also directed away from the township hall while the van was being towed away.
