    TUSCOLA CO., Michigan (WNEM) — A Michigan State Police trooper confiscated three handguns during a traffic stop following reports of a large party being advertised on TikTok.

On Saturday, Aug. 6 about 1:25 a.m. a trooper was patrolling an area in Wells Township where authorities learned a large party was going to be held on Aug. 5.

While the trooper was patrolling the area, he found a vehicle with seven people in it doing doughnuts in the middle of an interception, Michigan State Police said.
