Prosecutor Considering Assault Charges Against Michigan Treasurer Andy Dillon

REDFORD (CBSDETROIT) - The Wayne County Prosecutor's Office is reportedly considering whether to charge state Treasurer Andy Dillon with assaulting his ex-wife.

Office spokeswoman Maria Miller tells the Detroit News that a warrant request was submitted by Redford Township police. Carol Dillon accuses her ex-husband of "assaultive behavior" while drunk at her township home on July 13th.

Andy Dillon's attorney says the complaint is "without merit."

Dillon accused her of stealing his phone from a car the same day. She denies it was theft.
