Ann Arbor Police Report (Jan 2017) – Larceny Investigation Case 17-3517 (Drs. Foerster & Petrou)

Ann Arbor Police Department Investigation (Case 17-3517)

On January 23, 2017, the Ann Arbor Police Department opened an investigation under Case No. 17-3517 involving allegations of financial misconduct within a family relationship.

The report classifies the matter as “Larceny (Other)” and identifies approximately $434,000 in alleged losses arising from financial transactions involving accounts held at Merrill Lynch.

The complaint was initiated by a family member and recorded as both a financial and elderly abuse report.

The report identifies Dr. Bradley Foerster and Dr. Myria Petrou as subjects of the investigation and describes the underlying allegation as involving transfers of funds from accounts held by Dr. Petrou’s parents, Maria and Petros Petrou.

No criminal investigator lead sheet associated with the police report has been identified, as confirmed through multiple FOIA requests and denials. Although Detective Rougeau documented certain interviews, other interviews known to have occurred, including interviews of Duaa Altaee’s husband Tarick Seifeddine and the concrete contractor, are not reflected in the materials produced.

Timeline: initiation of investigation (January 2017) → investigative activity and search warrants (2017) → partial document access through subsequent proceedings (2017) → additional materials identified through AAPD FOIA (2020).

This investigation forms the basis for the Ann Arbor Police Department materials documented in this archive, including search warrants, communications, and related records associated with Case 17-3517.
