Michigan's attorney general is suing two companies and blaming them for Flint's lead-tainted water crisis.

Attorney General Bill Schuette said he wants to take Veolia North America and Lockwood, Andrews and Newnam to court.

The lawsuit claims the companies were hired by the state and city and that their actions and omissions caused the crisis to "occur, continue and worsen."
