Plaintiff Juli Garretson was arrested by the Madison Heights Police Department on charges of retail fraud. During the booking process, Garretson informed police that she was an insulin-dependent diabetic and that she would need insulin that night.

She alleged violations of 42 U.S.C. § 1983 and the Fourth, Eighth and Fourteenth Amendments of the United States Constitution, and state law claims for intentional infliction of emotional distress and gross negligence. Madison Heights's motion for summary judgment was granted. We AFFIRM in part and REVERSE and REMAND in part.
