密歇根州韦恩县检察官 Kym Worthy 10月19日举行新闻发布会，宣布对两名分别驾车冲撞底特律都会机场（DTW）航站楼的男子提起重罪起诉。两起事件彼此独立，检察官表示两案的作案动机均尚不明确。
37岁的 Clinton Township 居民 Brian Sutton 被控于今年1月23日驾驶一辆奔驰车冲破 McNamara 航站楼正门，撞上达美航空值机柜台，造成六人受伤。检方称，其中三名女性为两名达美航空员工和一名运输安全管理局（TSA）人员，被玻璃和碎片划伤，所幸无人受重伤。Sutton 面临三项谋杀未遂、三项意图重大伤害袭击、三项危险武器袭击及一项恶意破坏建筑罪名，此前法官已下令对其进行心理健康评估。
67岁的 Southgate 居民 David Chamlee 被控于5月29日驾驶黑色凯迪拉克 SUV 绕过 Evans 航站楼外的防撞柱冲入大门，面临两项谋杀未遂等共七项罪名；该案两名女性路人被玻璃和碎片击中，同样没有重伤。
两名被告10月19日过堂，保释金各设为1万美元，法院定于10月27日举行预审听证。两人若定罪，最高可判终身监禁。1月冲撞事件后，机场方面已在航站楼外加装混凝土防撞柱，机场管理局表示正评审安保设施改进的最终设计方案。（GSM 据底特律自由新闻报对韦恩县检察官发布会的报道）
Michigan: Two Men Charged With Attempted Murder After Crashing Cars Into Detroit Metro Airport Terminals
Wayne County Prosecutor Kym Worthy announced felony charges on October 19 against two men who drove their cars into terminals at Detroit Metropolitan Airport (DTW) in Michigan in two separate incidents earlier this year, saying investigators have not uncovered a motive in either case.
Brian Sutton, 37, of Clinton Township, is charged in the January 23 crash, in which investigators say he drove a Mercedes through the front of the McNamara Terminal and into a Delta Air Lines ticket counter, injuring six people. Worthy said three women — two Delta employees and a Transportation Security Administration (TSA) agent — were struck by glass and debris but none suffered serious injuries. Sutton faces three counts each of assault with intent to murder, assault with intent to do great bodily harm and assault with a dangerous weapon, plus one count of malicious destruction of a building. A judge previously ordered him to undergo a mental health examination.
David Chamlee, 67, of Southgate, faces seven counts, including two of assault with intent to murder, in the May 29 incident, in which airport police say he drove a black Cadillac SUV around the bollards outside the Evans Terminal and through the front door. Two women in that incident were struck by glass and debris and were not seriously injured.
Both men were arraigned on October 19, with bond set at $10,000 each and probable cause conferences scheduled for October 27. Each faces up to life in prison if convicted. The January crash prompted the airport to install concrete bollards outside the terminal, and the Wayne County Airport Authority says final designs for further security improvements are under review.
