local 4 news starts now with a breaking
news alert
that breaking news coming to us tonight
from garden city where a road rage
shooting causes a violent crash topping
our news at 11. that crash tonight
sending an innocent woman to the
hospital with severe injuries a shooting
and crash happening at the intersection
of middle belt and maplewood and that is
where pamela osborne is live with the
very latest pam
that investigation is still very much
underway first i want to show you this
pickup truck here involved in this
accident the situation if you look very
closely you can see bullet holes on the
driver's side of that vehicle this is
one of what police believe are two
vehicles that were involved in some sort
of dispute that ended in a violent crash
that also injured an innocent woman who
was pulled from that piece of a car that
you see there on the other side of
middle belt road
originally we received a call about
reckless driving two vehicles things
escalated quickly from there i heard the
shots like quite a few like would you
say i don't know six to ten for sure
these ladies heard it all from their
hair salon when they came out to look
they saw this wrecked pickup truck and
one of the people involved the man in
the red t-shirt
bolted across the street and
ran fast fell in the street got up
continued to run behind the blue
building and then returned he was taken
into police custody police are still
trying to figure out exactly what
happened but say that first call of
reckless driving was followed by another
call about an exchange of gunfire this
father and daughter caught the tail end
of that exchange it's kind of scary to
think about that this could happen on
our roads that we drive on every day
investigators arrived to find a truck
with bullet holes on the driver's side
and a mangled blue car police say the
woman driving was an innocent bystander
who got caught in the middle first
responders pulled her from that car she
was transported to the hospital it's
heartbreaking
because these were members of our
community that are now either going to
be traumatized or worse no longer with
us i hope everybody is ok
but looking at the damage it's hard to
imagine what they're going to be going
through tonight
and still no word on how that woman is
doing this evening while police have
quite the scene here that they are still
investigating they say the driver of
another vehicle did take off from the
scene they're working to get a
description of that vehicle and as soon
as they do we will of course pass it
along to you reporting live tonight in
garden city i'm pamela osborne local 4.
horrifically violent there all right
thank you pamela we appreciate it
also following some breaking news at
this hour near grand rapids police say a
16-year-old boy and a 40-year-old woman
were shot in a high school parking lot
in gaines township just as a graduation
ceremony was finishing fortunately both
victims are expected to be ok police say
two white sedans opened fire as people
were leaving then drove off no arrests

known connection between the victims and
suspects tonight everyone in lansing
seems to be looking to give you money
governor whitmer is pitching a 500
dollar check while the gop
legislature wants to lower the income
tax along with a host of other
structural tax changes mark mcdonnell in
lansing tonight tomorrow the bottom line
here is right now lansing is awash in
money
and we're not just talking about federal
money either this state is blowing past
its expected tax collections in this
case this year alone by 2.8 billion
dollars with more expected next year
what to do with all those billions well
you've got dueling proposals i'm excited
to propose what's called my tax rebate
right now
a plan to use our additional revenue to
send working families a 500
relief right away the governor coming
out with her 500 dollar check proposal
on the day the gop led legislature
passed its tax overhaul bills the
specifics of who would get that 500
check are not clear but it would come
sooner rather than later if the governor
gets her way we're looking at immediate
relief here and i think that's the best
way to get get us there i mean we're
looking at the prices of gas and
groceries i think families need
immediate relief and that's the best way
to do it but what the gop-led
legislature passed today is a 2.6
billion dollar tax cut starting with
reducing michigan's income tax from 4.25
percent to 4 percent and there's a lot
more annually
every
family will see a 500 dollar increase in
in child credit
on their taxes annually
earned income tax credit will go up
about 75 or 275 million dollars the back
stage to all of this is well it's an
election year and with the president's
poll numbers in the tank and the latest
nbc polling numbers suggesting a
whopping 75 percent of you say the
country is on the wrong track democrats
are facing a rough midterm election
the two greatest issues that are driving
people to the polls this fall according
to the poll
inflation
and the economy
