SCHOOL THREAT. WE’RE TOLD THAT
SOMEONE WROTE THE MESSAGE. A
MESSAGE OF A SHOOTING ON A
BATHROOM IN THE BATHROOM. NOW

THEIR CLASSROOMS AND THE OAKLAND
COUNTY SHERIFF’S OFFICE IS
SEARCHING ROOM BY ROOM AND THAT
SCHOOL SKY FOUR, WAS OVER HEAD
OF THE SCHOOL LAST WEEK BECAUSE
OF A THREAT WRITTEN ON A
BATHROOM WALL ON TUESDAY OF LAST
WEEK. INVESTIGATORS DO NOT I
BELIEVE THAT THREAT WAS
CREDIBLE. EXPECTING TO HEAR FROM
BOTH FOOTBALL COACHES AT
MICHIGAN AND MICHIGAN STATE
TODAY AFTER THE FIGHT, REMEMBER
THEY’RE SEEING THE TUNNEL THERE
FOR MICHIGAN STATE FOOTBALL
PLAYERS HAVE BEEN SUSPENDED FOR
PUNCHING AND KICKING MICHIGAN
PLAYER AFTER THAT BIG RIVALRY
GAME. LOCAL FORCE ROD MELONI
JOINS US NOW FROM ANN ARBOR,
WHERE JIM HARBAUGH IS TALKING
RIGHT NOW. WELL NORMALLY ON A
MONDAY MIDDAY WE WOULD HAVE THE
COACH IS TALKING ABOUT THE NEXT
FOOTBALL GAME, AND IN FACT THAT
WILL BE HAPPENING BOTH HERE IN
ANN ARBOR AND ALSO IN EAST
LANSING WILL BE TALKING ABOUT
THEIR NEXT OPPONENTS. BUT
THERE’S SO MUCH THAT IS HANGING
OVER WHAT HAPPENED ON SATURDAY
NIGHT. YES UNIVERSITY OF
MICHIGAN 1 29 27 IN A GOOD GAME,
MUCH ANTICIPATED GAME THAT THERE
WAS A LOT OF EMOTION SURROUNDING
AND IN FACT, THAT EMOTION BOILED
OVER AFTER THE GAME WILL SHOW
YOU THE VIDEO HERE, AND THE
ALLEGATION IS THAT CARRY TRUMP,
WHO WAS A SOPHOMORE, ANGELO
GROWS A JUNIOR. DE’VEON TANK
BROWN, A SOPHOMORE, AND ZION
YOUNG, A FRESHMAN, ALL OF WHOM
BY THE WAY, PLAYED IN THE GAME
ON SATURDAY NIGHT ARE ALLEGED TO
HAVE ATTACKED JADEN MCB BURROWS
, WHO WAS A PLAYER FOR THE
UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN, AND IN
FACT THE VIDEO SHOWS THAT THE
ATTACK WAS QUITE SEVERE. COACH
JIM HARBAUGH SEEING AFTER THE
GAME THAT HE THOUGHT THAT MKB
ARE OWES HAD RECEIVED AT LEAST A
BROKEN NOSE AND THAT THERE MAY
HAVE BEEN ANOTHER PLAYER WHO HAD
BEEN ATTACKED AS WELL. AND SO
THERE’S MUCH CONCERN ABOUT THIS
, IN FACT, SO MUCH SO THAT I
SPOKE WITH THE UNIVERSITY OF
MICHIGAN PUBLIC SAFETY TODAY,
AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY ARE
IN FACT INVESTIGATING, ALONG
WITH MSU POLICE AND ALSO THE
UNIVERSITIES THEMSELVES. THERE
HAVE BEEN PRESS RELEASES PUT OUT
BY MICHIGAN STATE UNIVERSITY AND
ALSO THE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN
TALKING ABOUT THIS, AND IN FACT
, MEL TUCKER, THE MSU COACH,
BASICALLY SAYING THAT THOSE FOUR
MEN WHO WE JUST TOLD YOU ABOUT
TRUMP GROWS, BROWN AND YOUNG
HAVE BEEN SUSPENDED FROM THE
TEAM, AND IN FACT, THE
INVESTIGATION IS GOING AND THERE
IS THE POSSIBILITY THAT MAYBE
SOME MORE SUSPENSIONS COULD BE
COMING INTO PLACE. SO IT’S ONE
OF THOSE SITUATIONS WHERE WE
WANT TO HEAR FROM BOTH SIDES,
AND IN FACT, JIM HARBAUGH IS
GOING TO BE DOING A PRESS
CONFERENCE AND MEL TUCKER ALSO
HAS A NEW TIME. PRESS
CONFERENCE, AND WE’LL BE HEARING
FROM THEM AS TO PRECISELY WHAT
THEY HAVE TO SAY. WE ALSO
CERTAINLY WANT TO FIND OUT WHAT
THE BIG 10 HAS TO SAY ABOUT ALL
OF THIS AS WELL. YOU’LL REMEMBER
THAT A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO IN
THE SAME TUNNEL, THERE WAS A
CONFRONTATION BETWEEN PENN STATE
PLAYERS AND UNIVERSITY OF
MICHIGAN PLAYERS. SO CLEARLY
THERE’S AN ISSUE IN THIS TUNNEL
AND THAT WILL CERTAINLY BE
ADDRESSED HERE AT THE NEWS
CONFERENCE TODAY WILL BE ASKING
ABOUT THAT AND ALSO HEARING FROM
MILL TUCKER. UP IN EAST LANSING.
SO THAT’S THE UPDATE. NOW,
PREVIEWING ALL OF THAT WILL
CERTAINLY HAVE UPDATES COMING UP
ON LOCAL 4 NEWS AT 45 AND SIX IN
AN ORBIT. ROD MELONI, FOR LOCAL
ALRIGHT, ROD. THANK YOU. WELL
THAT’S ALL PLAYING OUT OVER AT
MICHIGAN STATE UNIVERSITY RIGHT
NOW, THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES ARE
MEETING AND EXPECTING THEM TO
NAME AN INTERIM PRESIDENT
EARLIER THIS MONTH, YOU MAY
REMEMBER PRESIDENT SAMUEL
STANLEY ANNOUNCES RESIGNATION,
SAYING THAT HE LOST CONFIDENCE
IN THE BOARD. IT CAME AFTER
SEVERAL BOARD MEMBERS REQUESTED
THAT HE STEPPED ASIDE. STANLEY’S
LAST DAY IS IN JANUARY, AND WE
DO HAVE A CREW IN EAST LANSING.
SO WE WILL HAVE LET YOU KNOW,
JUST AS SOON AS THE BOARD
DECISION COMES DOWN. ALRIGHT SO
AS YOUR CHILDREN AND LIKELY YOU
GET READY TO HEAD ON OUT TO GO
TRICK OR TREATING TONIGHT POLICE
WANT YOU TO FOCUS ON STAYING
SAFE AND THEY’RE DOING
EVERYTHING THEY CAN TO BRING
AWARENESS TO THAT. ABSOLUTELY
NICK MONACELLI TALKED WITH THE
STERLING HEIGHTS POLICE TO RAISE
AWARENESS ABOUT SOME POTENTIAL
DANGERS THAT YOU MAY NOT BE
THINKING ABOUT NICK. TREE.
HOPEFULLY EVERYONE WHO HAS ASKED
TONIGHT OFFERS UP A TREAT AND
NOT A TRICK. BUT THAT DOESN’T
MEAN PARENTS CAN LET THEIR GUARD
DOWN. TAKE A LOOK AT THIS DRUG
SMUGGLERS IN CALIFORNIA TRYING
TO GET PILLS ACROSS THE BORDER
DISGUISED AS CANDY, AND IT’S
ALSO IMPORTANT TO KNOW THE
MAJORITY OF REGISTERED SEX
FENDERS ARE ALLOWED TO PASS
OUT CANDY ON HALLOWEEN. SO IF
THAT’S A CONCERN OF YOURS, CHECK
TO SEE IF THERE ARE OFFENDERS
WHERE YOU’LL BE TRICK OR
TREATING MICHIGAN. THEY VERY
EASY TO USE WEBSITE. BUT DO YOU
KNOW WHAT THE BIGGEST THREAT TO
KIDS WILL BE TONIGHT? TRAFFIC
THE BIGGER THREAT IS THE VOLUME
OF KIDS AT NIGHT WEARING DARK
COSTUMES IN VEHICLE TRAFFIC, AND
WE KNOW EVERY SINGLE YEAR THAT
ACCIDENTS AT HALLOWEEN HAVE ARE
DEFINITELY ELEVATED. AND THERE
IS A WAY BETTER CHANCE OF
GETTING HIT BY A CAR THAN BEING
INJURED WITH SOME KIND OF
TAINTED CANDY. STERLING HEIGHTS,
PLEASE CHIEF DALE DWELL,
JACKOWSKI SAYS. IT MAKES SENSE.
KIDS ARE RUNNING ALL OVER. WELL,
CARS ARE TRYING TO GET THROUGH.
SO TO PROTECT YOUR LITTLE
GOBLINS, BUT THEY CAN HAVE A
GLOW STICK. MULTIPLE GLOW STICKS
, A FLASHLIGHT, A LIT UP PAIL OR
BUCKET FOR THEIR HALLOWEEN CANDY
CROSSING AT THE CROSSWALK, NOT
JUST DARTING OUT ACROSS THE
MIDDLE OF THE STREET. THIS IS
STUFF WE SEE EVERY SINGLE YEAR,
AND IT TURNS OUT ONE THIRD OF
FATAL ACCIDENTS ON HALLOWEEN
INVOLVE A DRIVER BETWEEN 15. IN
26 YEARS OLD. SO THESE ARE
RELATIVELY NEW DRIVERS THAT ARE
DRIVING ON HALLOWEEN NIGHT WITH
A TON OF KIDS RUNNING AROUND, SO
IT’S A RECIPE FOR DISASTER. AND
IF YOU’RE A PARENT WITH A YOUNG
DRIVER, I WOULD SUGGEST MAYBE
TRYING TO KEEP THAT YOUNG DRIVER
HOME ON HALLOWEEN NIGHT OR
REALLY STRESSING TO HIM ABOUT
DRIVING VERY SLOWLY, ESPECIALLY
THROUGH SUBDIVISIONS STAYING OFF
THAT CELL PHONE BECAUSE THAT’S
REALLY WHERE THE DANGEROUS
NICK MONACELLI LOCAL 4 NEWS.
VERY GOOD AND USEFUL INFORMATION
THERE, NICK. THANK YOU. BUT
SPEAKING OF HALLOWEEN IN DETROIT
TONIGHT, THERE ARE A NUMBER OF
THINGS THAT FAMILIES CAN DO TO
GET THE HALLOWEEN CANDY ALL
AROUND. THE CITY OF DETROIT IS
HOSTING ITS ANNUAL HALLOWEEN AND
THE D AND REALLY GOING ALL OUT
FOR FAMILIES. THEY WILL BE TRUNK
OR TREATING AT ALL. 11 DETROIT
POLICE PRECINCTS AND SEVEN FIRE
STATIONS ARE ALSO BE HANDING OUT
CANDY TO TRICK OR TREAT EAR’S.
THERE ARE ALSO BIG EVENTS AT
RECREATION CENTERS AND PARKS
THROUGHOUT THE CITY. WE HAVE A
COMPLETE RUNDOWN OF ALL ALL THE
FUN ON OUR WEBSITE AND CLICK ON
DETROIT DOT COM. THOSE PARK
EVENTS HAPPENING. I BELIEVE OVER
THE WEEKEND, SO THAT’S A GOOD
THING BECAUSE OUTDOOR PORTION
