Man With Autism Found Locked In Caged Bed

The bed holding the 19-year-old man was chained shut and two people who live at the home have been arrested.

Two people have been charged with unlawful imprisonment after a 19-year-old man with autism was found locked in a caged bed in Michigan.

A sheriff's deputy found the man after responding to a disturbance at the property on 20 October, according to Huron County Sheriff's Office.
The man, as well as other adults and two children, have been removed from the home, which is about 100 miles north of Detroit.

A 65-year-old woman and a 66-year-old man, who both live at the home, were arrested. The sheriff's office did not name the pair.
They are being charged with felony unlawful imprisonment and misdemeanour abuse of a vulnerable adult, and are being held in the Huron County Jail.
Michigan's Department of Human Services says its adult protective services office is investigating.
A spokesman said the home is a private residence and not a licensed care facility.
