♪ >> Kim: ALL GEARED UP AND READY
TO ENFORCE THE LAW, BUT THERE
WAS ONE PROBLEM.
HE’S NOT A POLICE OFFICER!
>> Devin: ALSO, A POSITIVE SIGN
AMID THE PICKETING.
STRIKING WORKERS GET SOMETHING
BACK THEY LOST.
>> Kim: A HOSPITAL TELLS THE
MOTHER HER CHILD IS BRAIN DEAD
BUT SHE IS FIGHTING THE HOSPITAL
TO KEEP HIM ON LIFE SUPPORT.
WHO CAN CONVINCE A PARENT IT’S
TIME TO LET HER CHILD GO?
>> Devin: THEY SAY IT’S TIME TO
TAKE HIM OFF LIFE SUPPORT.
BUT SARA JONES STILL BELIEVES A
MIRACLE COULD BRING BACK HER SON
BOBBY.
BOBBY. >> Kim: PAULA TUTMAN TAKES US PI
SEEKING LEGAL HELP TO BUY MORE
TIME.
TIME. >> Paula: THIS MOTHER IS
OBVIOUSLY AND UNDERSTANDABLY
EMOTIONAL.
EMOTIONAL. ONE MOMENT HER BOY WAS JUST
FINE, THE NEXT MOMENT HE WASN’T.
SHE WAS PERFORMING CPR AND HE IS
HERE AT MOTT CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL
IN ANN ARBOR.
BOBBY RAY HAS FOUR SIBLINGS,
INCLUDING A TWIN BROTHER.
LAST SATURDAY, HE SUFFERED A
SEVERE ASTHMA ATTACK AND CARDIAC
ARREST.
ARREST. >> EMS WAS CALLED AND SENT TO
THE WRONG LOCATION, SO WE WENT A
LONG TIME WAITING FOR HELP.
>> Paula: HE WAS PLACED ON LIFE
SUPPORT.
SUPPORT. HIS FAMILY WAS TOLD HE’S BRAIN
DEAD AND AFTER ONE MORE
ADDITIONAL TEST TO CONFIRM LACK
OF BRAIN ACTIVITY, HE’LL BE
REMOVED FROM LIFE SUPPORT.
>> GIVE HIM A LITTLE BIT MORE
TIME, DON’T WITHDRAW TREATMENT.
>> Paula: DECLARING SOMEONE
BRAIN DEAD IS A SPECIFIC PROCESS
AS WE SHOWED YOU LAST YEAR.
FIRST PAIN AND DISCOMFORT TESTS
FOR A THRESHOLD OF REACTIONS.
EYES ONLY MOVE IF THERE’S BRAIN
ACTIVITY, GAUGING BLOOD GAS
LEVELS.
LEVELS. THESE ARE WAYS TO PROVE SOMEONE
IS DEAD BUT FOR ARTIFICIAL SIGNS
OF LIFE BY WAY OF LIFE SUPPORT
MACHINES.
MACHINES. HIS MOTHER UNDERSTANDS THAT BUT
ALL SHE WANTS IS A LITTLE MORE
TIME AND SEEKING A LEGAL
INJUNCTION TO STOP THE HOSPITAL
FROM TAKING HIM OFF LIFE
SUPPORT.
SUPPORT. THE HOSPITAL SAYS ALL OF US
EMPATHIZE WITH THE
EXTRAORDINARILY EMOTIONAL
EXTRAORDINARILY EMOTIONAL PROCESS...
>> I WOULD LIKE A WEEK, A WEEK OR TWO.
OR TWO. IT HASN’T EVEN BEEN A WEEK.
WE JUST WANT HIM.
WE CAN’T LOSE HIM.
WE LOVE HIM SO MUCH AND HE’S SO
YOUNG.
YOUNG. WE BELIEVE, WE’RE PEOPLE OF
FAITH, AND SO MANY PEOPLE PRAYED
FOR HIM THAT HE’LL PULL THROUGH.
GIVE US TIME TO GET OUR MIRACLE.
>> Paula: YOU CAN CERTAINLY
UNDERSTAND HER EMOTION.
WHAT LOVED ONE, WHAT PARENT,
WHAT ANYBODY DOESN’T WANT A
MIRACLE FOR A 14-YEAR-OLD?
THIS FAMILY HAS A CHALLENGE, AN
UPHILL BATTLE, WITHOUT QUESTION.
IF YOU WANT TO REACH OUT TO SHOW
EMPATHY, INFORMATION SO YOU CAN
REACH OUT DIRECTLY TO THEM ON
OUR SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORM TO
SHOW SUPPORT AS WELL AS THE
HOSPITAL’S FULL STATEMENT, GUYS.
>> Kim: NO WORDS REALLY, PAULA.
WE APPRECIATE IT.
>> Devin: TONIGHT, GENERAL
MOTORS HAS EXTENDED A BIT OF AN
OLIVE BRANCH WHILE NEGOTIATIONS
HEAT UP ON WHAT IS THE 11th DAY
OF THE STRIKE.
GENERAL MOTORS WILL RESUME
HEALTH CARE COVERAGE FOR
STRIKING WORKERS.
STRIKING WORKERS. THEY WERE TOLD TO GET COBRA, BUT
THE TALKS ARE INTENSIFYING BUT
THERE ARE STILL MAJOR HURDLES TO
CLEAR BEFORE THERE’S A DEAL.
WE’RE TOLD RETURNING HEALTH CARE
COULD SUGGEST THAT AN AGREEMENT
IS COMING SOONER RATHER THAN
LATER.
LATER. LET’S HOPE SO.
>> Kim: THE EAGLE EYE OF AN
AUBURN HILLS POLICE OFFICER IS
GETTING PRAISE TONIGHT.
HE NOTICED DARKENED WINDOWS AND
STRANGE L.E.D. LIGHTS.
AND PULLED OVER A FAKE
UNDERCOVER POLICE CRUISER.
LOCAL 4’S ROD MELONI IS LIVE IN
AUBURN HILLS WITH THE STORY OF
WHY AUBURN HILLS POLICE NEED
YOUR HELP IN THIS CASE.
ROD?
ROD? >> Rod: YEAH, KAREN.
YOU WANT A COP CAR LIKE THIS IF
YOU’RE GONNA GET STOPPED, NOT
THE FAKE KIND.
AND WE’RE TOLD THIS GUY WAS A
WANNA-BE COP WHO WENT TO
EXTRAORDINARY LENGTHS TO MAKE
HIS CAR LOOK LIKE A COP CAR.
THEY WANT TO KNOW IF HE WAS
STOPPING VEHICLES IN METRO
DETROIT.
DETROIT. [SIREN]
[SIREN] IF YOU SAW THIS 2012 DODGE
CHARGER IN THE REARVIEW MIRROR,
YOU WOULD PROBABLY STOP, WHICH
IS WHAT WORRIES THE LIEUTENANT.
>> IT’S ILLEGAL TO HAVE BLUE
LIGHTS ON YOUR VEHICLE AND
ILLEGAL TO HAVE A SIREN IF
YOU’RE NOT AUTHORIZED TO HAVE
ONE.
ONE. >> Rod: HE WANTS YOU TO PLAY
CLOSE ATTENTION TO HIM.
LOOK AT THE REST OF HIS
APPEARANCE, THE UNIFORM, THE
HAIR, THE BADGE.
THEY WANNA KNOW IF HE MIGHT HAVE
STOPPED YOU SOMEWHERE IN METRO
DETROIT.
DETROIT. THAT WOULD BE A FELONY.
>> I DON’T KNOW HONESTLY IF HE’S
OUT OF TOUCH FROM REALITY OR IF
HE’S GOT BAD MOTIVES, WE DON’T
KNOW.
KNOW. THAT’S WHY WE’RE ASKING FOR HELP
FROM THE PUBLIC TO CONTACT US.
>> Rod: HE SPENT A COUPLE
THOUSAND DOLLARS TRICKING OUT
HIS DODGE CHARGER WITH A
POLICE-STYLE COMPUTER, PEPPER
SPRY, A HANDGUN THAT WAS
ACTUALLY A GLOCK-STYLE BB GUN.
THIS LEADS US TO THE NEXT BIG
CONCERN, WHAT DO YOU DO IF YOU
MEET UP WITH A GUY LIKE THIS?
>> IF ANYBODY IS EVER IN
QUESTION, THEY CAN CALL 911 TO
CONFIRM WE ARE WHO WE SAY WE
ARE.
ARE. WE’RE IN COMMUNICATION WITH THEM
BY RADIO.
BY RADIO. THEY KNOW WHERE WE’RE AT, AT ALL
TIMES.
TIMES. >> Rod: SO AUBURN HILLS POLICE
SAY HE IS FROM FLAT ROCK AND
ARRESTED FOR DRIVING WITH A
SUSPENDED LICENSE AND A NUMBER
OF ARREST WARRANTS FOR HIM
BECAUSE OF SUSPENDED LICENSE
VIOLATIONS.
VIOLATIONS. WHAT THEY’RE MOST CONCERNED
ABOUT IS THEY WANNA KNOW IF
ANYBODY HAS INTERACTING WITH
THIS FAKE COP.
THEY WANNA KNOW IF YOU WERE
STOPPED BY HIM, WHETHER YOU’VE
TALKED TO HIM, WHETHER YOU’VE
HAD ANY INTERACTION WITH HIM
WHATSOEVER, BECAUSE IT COULD
RAISE THIS TO A FELONY AND
THAT’S WHAT THEY’RE THINKING
THEY NEED TO DO HERE.
>> Kim: IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE
TO HELP TO IDENTIFY THIS MAN?
>> Rod: ONE OF THE THINGS HE HAD
WRITTEN ON THAT VEST, AND IT WAS
HARD TO READ, BUT IT SAID
MICHIGAN ATTORNEY GENERAL
POLICE.
POLICE. I LOOKED IT UP AND THERE’S NO
SUCH THING, BECAUSE THE ATTORNEY
GENERAL USUALLY WORKS WITH
MICHIGAN STATE POLICE.
BUT IF YOU’VE SEEN THAT ON THIS
GUY’S VEST, POLICE WANT YOU TO
CALL THEM RIGHT AWAY.
>> Devin: A LOT OF FOLKS
WONDERING IF THIS IS OUR FINAL
GRASP AT SUMMER-LIKE WEATHER.
IF YOU LIKE THE FIRST COOL
EVENING, YOU’LL LIKE GETTING OUT
TONIGHT.
TONIGHT. >> Ben: IT WAS FLAG DAY THE LAST
TIME WE WERE THIS COOL AT NIGHT.
MOST OF US ARE IN THE 60s AS WE
SPEAK.
SPEAK. A COUPLE 70s ON THE EAST SIDE AT
CITY AIRPORT AND MONROE.
THE AIR IS VERY DRY.
THE WINDS WILL CONTINUE TO
DECREASE TONIGHT.
DECREASE TONIGHT. SO IT WILL BE A CRISP FINISH.
WE’RE TALKING ABOUT OBVIOUSLY
COOL AIR TONIGHT.
LOOK WHAT HAPPENS INTO NEXT
WEEK.
WEEK. 84 ON MONDAY.
87 ON TUESDAY.
AND BOTH OF THOSE DAYS WILL BE
JUST A DEGREE AWAY FROM RECORD
HIGHS FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR.
OF COURSE, THAT WILL BE OCTOBER
WHEN WE GET THERE.
BUT WE’VE GOT A LOT OF REAL
ESTATE IN BETWEEN, INCLUDING
RAIN FOR THE WEEKEND.
AND WE’LL DISCUSS THAT ALL
COMING UP IN A FEW MINUTES.
GUYS?
GUYS? >> Kim: OKAY, BEN.
>>> POLICE ARE LOOKING FOR HELP
IN IDENTIFYING A SUSPECT IN A
BANK ROBBERY YESTERDAY.
HE ENTERED THE CITIZENS BANK AT
GRATIOT AND FRAHZO, APPEARING TO
BE ON THE PHONE.
HE DEMANDED MONEY AND LEFT WITH
CRASH.
CRASH. ANYONE WITH INFORMATION IS ASKED
TO CALL ROSEVILLE POLICE.

ROCK BOTTOM.
ROCK BOTTOM. >> BOTH OF THEM ADDICTED AND ON
DRUGS.
DRUGS. >> Kim: TODAY, THEY’RE BOTH OFF
DRUGS AND GETTING A NEW CHANCE
AT LIFE WITH THE HELP OF GRACE
CENTERS OF HOPE.
>> YOU GUYS DESERVE IT, YOU BOTH
WORKED HARD.
WORKED HARD. >> Kim: THE HOME BUILT IN 1910
NEEDED A WHOLE REMODEL AND
ADOPTED BY FIAT CHRYSLER WHO PUT
MORE THAN 900 VOLUNTEER HOURS
INTO MAKING THIS A FOREVER HOME
FOR JENNIFER AND DAKOTA.
>> IT’S BEAUTIFUL!
IT’S AMAZING!
IT’S AMAZING! I CAN’T EVEN BELIEVE IT.
SEEING FROM WHEN THEY FIRST
STARTED TO NOW, THE FLOORS ARE
BEAUTIFUL!
BEAUTIFUL! EVERYTHING!
EVERYTHING! I’M BLOWN AWAY.
>> WHAT WE’RE DOING IS NOT JUST
FEEDING HOMELESS PEOPLE.
WHAT WE WANNA DO IS NOT ONLY
FEED BUT WE WANNA SEE THEM GET
THEIR LIFE BACK AND BECOME
PRODUCTIVE CITIZENS.
PRODUCTIVE CITIZENS. >> Kim: AND NOW THEY’RE BACK ON
TWO FEET READY TO MOVE INTO
THEIR NEW HOME WITH THEIR
4-YEAR-OLD SON.
4-YEAR-OLD SON. >> HE’S GONNA BE SO GEEKED.
LOOK AT THIS.
>> Kim: TO GIVE YOU PERSPECTIVE
OF WHAT THIS HOME LOOKED LIKE
BEFORE THE RENOVATIONS, THIS IS
THE ORIGINAL HOME.
AND HERE’S WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE
TODAY THANKS TO THE WORK OF
HUNDREDS OF VOLUNTEERS.
IN PONTIAC, I’M KIM DeGIULIO,
