SCENE, TIM YOU EVER AN AWFUL
SCENE, AS YOU SAY, FOR VEHICLES
INVOLVED HERE, INCLUDING THAT
BIG SEMI TRUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF

SEMI THERE, YOU SEE THE YELLOW
BLANKETS COVERING THEIR BODIES,
THIS GET UP TO SKY FOR TAKE A
VIEW FROM THE AIR. OF THE SCENE
AGAIN. THIS IS WESTBOUND 6 96
APPROACHING 96 TO 75 THE AND
FIVE CONNECTOR AND FUNDED HILLS
NOVAYA BORDER. SOME DRIVERS
EARLIER STUCK IN THE BACK UP
THERE, SAYING THAT THE POLICE
AND MEDICS WERE VERY, VERY
QUICKLY, BUT IT APPEARS THERE

LOCAL 4 NEWS BACK TO YOU
DOWNTOWN. THE WRITING. VERY VERY
SAD, TIM. THANK YOU FOR THE
UPDATE THEIR EVEN MORE BREAKING
NEWS AT THIS HOUR, THIS ONE FROM
THE SUPREME COURT, A MAJOR GUN,
A MAJOR RULING ON GUN RIGHTS 6
TO 3 DECISION. THE JUSTICES
STRUCK DOWN A RESTRICTIVE NEW
YORK GUN LAW, AND IT WILL
ULTIMATELY ALLOW MORE PEOPLE TO
LEGALLY CARRY GUNS ON THE
STREETS OF SOME OF THE COUNTRY’S
BIGGEST CITIES. JACKSON IS IN
WASHINGTON D. C THIS AFTERNOON
WITH THESE BREAKING
DEVELOPMENTS. 63 RULING, THE
SUPREME COURT STRUCK DOWN A NEW
YORK GUN CONTROL LAW REQUIRING
PEOPLE TO DEMONSTRATE A SPECIAL
NEED FOR A LICENSE TO CARRY A
CONCEALED WEAPON OUTSIDE OF
THEIR HOME. IS A DISGRACEFUL
DECISION. NEW YORK HOLDS SOME OF
THE NATION’S STRICTEST GUN LAWS
SHOCKING. ABSOLUTELY SHOCKING.
THIS IS NEW YORK. WE DON’T BACK
DOWN. WE FIGHT BACK, LAWYERS FOR
THE STATE SAID THE LAW PROMOTES
PUBLIC SAFETY AND CLAIMS
STRIKING IT DOWN WOULD LEAD TO
MORE GUNS AND MORE CRIME WITH US
BEFORE, BUT CHALLENGERS ARGUED
THE LAW MAKES IT VIRTUALLY
IMPOSSIBLE FOR THE ORDINARY, LAW
ABIDING CITIZEN TO OBTAIN A
LICENSE. THIS WAS THE FIRST TIME
IN MORE THAN A DECADE THAT THE
SUPREME COURT TOOK ON A MAJOR
SECOND AMENDMENT CASE. AND IT
SERVED AS A TEST FOR A BENCH
WITH A STRONG CONSERVATIVE
MAJORITY. NOW NOW, NOT TOMORROW
. TODAY’S DECISION COMES AMID A
FIERCE NATIONWIDE DEBATE OVER
GUN LAWS MADE ONLY MORE URGENT
AFTER A RECENT STRING OF MASS
SHOOTINGS AND COULD LEAD TO AN
EXPANSION OF GUN RIGHTS ACROSS
THE COUNTRY, JUST AS MANY ARE
PUSHING FOR TIGHTER GUN LAWS. IN
WASHINGTON. I’M BREE JACKSON FOR
LOCAL 4. THANK YOU EVEN OR
BREAKING NEWS. AT THIS HOUR, THE
FDA HAS ORDERED JEWEL TO STOP
SELLING ITS ELECTRONIC
CIGARETTES HERE IN THE UNITED
STATES. THE COMPANY IS WIDELY
BLAMING BLAMED FOR SPARKING THE
NATIONAL SURGEON TEEN VAPING THE
COMPANY ALSO ENDED SALES OF ITS
FLAVORED PRODUCTS. THIS IS BACK
IN 2019 SHORTLY BEFORE THE FDA
BAMBOOS PRODUCTS. SUPPORTERS OF
E CIGARETTES SAY THEY HELP
SMOKERS CUT BACK ON REGULAR
CIGARETTES. THE FDA ORDER DOES
NOT PREVENT PEOPLE FROM OWNING
OR USING DUAL PRODUCTS ALSO NEW
HERE AT NOON, THE TRIAL FOR THE
SUSPECTED OXFORD HIGH SCHOOL
SHOOTER IS PUSHED BACK SEVERAL
MONTHS. IT WAS ONE OF THE KEY
DECISIONS THAT WAS MADE THIS
MORNING IN AN OAKLAND COUNTY
COURTROOM. LOCAL FORCE SHAWN LEY
IS MONITORING THE DEVELOPMENTS
FOR US AND HAS MORE THIS
AFTERNOON. WELL GOOD AFTERNOON.
THIS WAS A VERY BRIEF COURT
HEARING FOR THE ACCUSED OXFORD
SCHOOL SHOOTING, BUT IT DID COME
WITH BIG NEWS. HIS TRIAL HAS NOW
BEEN PUSHED BACK TO 2023. WE
CONTINUE TO MONITOR THE MONTHLY
COURT APPEARANCE OF THE OXFORD
SCHOOL SHOOTER. HE WAS ON CAMERA
TODAY DURING THE VIDEO
CONFERENCE JUST FOR AN INSTANT,
BUT EACH MONTH, THE COURT MUST
REVIEW IF HE SHOULD REMAIN IN
ADULT JAIL, THE OAKLAND COUNTY
JAIL OR BE MOVED TO A JUVENILE
FACILITY AND AGAIN NO ARGUMENTS
WERE MADE TO MOVE HIM SO HE WILL
REMAIN IN THE OAKLAND COUNTY
JIM. HOWEVER. HIS ATTORNEY SPOKE
UP TO ALERT THE COURT THAT SHE
IS DEALING WITH A MASSIVE AMOUNT
OF DISCOVERY EVIDENCE OF LAST
FALL SCHOOL SHOOTING AND
EVIDENCE LEADING UP TO THAT
SHOOTING, AND SHE SAYS SHE WILL
NOT BE READY FOR THE UPCOMING
SEPTEMBER TRIAL DATE. OBVIOUSLY
WITH THE SEPTEMBER TRIAL DATE,
THE DISCOVERY IS EXTREMELY
VOLUMINOUS. UM MYSELF. MISHAP AS
WELL AS MR MCKELVEY HAVE WORKED
THROUGH THE DISCOVERY AND ARE
CONTINUING TO WORK THROUGH IT.
BUT IN SEPTEMBER TRIAL DATE DOES
NOT SEEM REALISTIC. BASED ON THE
VOLUME OF THE DISCOVERY, THE
JUDGE ADJOURNING THAT SEPTEMBER
TRIAL DATE AND MOVING THE
ACCUSED SHOOTER’S TRIAL TO NOW.
JANUARY 17TH OF 2023. EVEN THEN
THERE’S NO GUARANTEE THE TRIAL
WILL BEGIN ON THAT DATE NEXT
YEAR, MUCH MORE COMING UP AT
FIVE O’CLOCK. SHAWN LEY LOCAL 4.
ALRIGHT SEAN. THANK YOU RIGHT
NOW. WE WANT TO TURN IT TO YOUR
FORECAST ON THIS THURSDAY
AFTERNOON. AS WE GIVE YOU A LIVE
LOOK OUTSIDE AND DOWNTOWN MOUNT
CLEMENS. WE’VE HAD TWO DAYS OF
PRETTY INTENSE HEAT. BUT WE ARE
GETTING A BIT OF RELIEF TODAY.
SO FOR MORE ON THAT, LET’S TURN
THINGS OVER TO METEOROLOGIST
BRANDON ROUX. FOR A LOOK AT WHAT
WE CAN EXPECT THE REST OF THE
DAY. I LIKE THESE NUMBERS I’M
SEEING BEHIND YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL.
AND THANKS IN LARGE PART TO A
NICE, CALM NORTH WIND BRINGING
IN SOME MILD AIR, SO YOU SEE,
IT’S ONLY 70 IMPORT HERE ON 72
UP IN SANDUSKY, 73 PONTIAC. ROOM
TEMPERATURE IN HOWELL CAN’T BEAT
THIS FOR MAYBE LUNCH OUT ON THE
PATIO OUTSIDE LUNCH. ANYTHING
OUTSIDE TODAY LOOKING GOOD
MIDDLE SEVENTIES A LITTLE CLOSER
TO DOWNTOWN AND YOU SEE THOSE
NORTH WINDS ANYWHERE FROM FIVE
TO ABOUT 13 MILES AN HOUR, NOT
DOING MUCH, ONLY A COUPLE OF
CLOUDS OUT THERE. AND THAT’S IT
. I MEAN, THE HUMIDITY IS DOWN.
STILL. DON’T FORGET THE
SUNSCREEN OUT THERE IS YOUR OUT
AND CAN BURN VERY QUICKLY AND
THIS DRY AIR WARMS AND COOLS
VERY QUICKLY, SO WE’RE GOING TO
WARM INTO THE MID EIGHTIES. AND
THEN WE COOL TONIGHT, EVERY UP.
WE’LL TALK ABOUT WARMING INTO
THOSE NINETIES AGAIN HEADING
INTO THE WEEKEND. ALRIGHT
BRENNAN WILL SEE YOU SHORTLY. A
WOMAN WAS ARRESTED FOR DRIVING
OFF AFTER A WRONG WAY CRASH ON
DETROIT’S EAST SIDE, POLICE SAY
THE WOMAN CRASHED THE CENTER
LINE OF SEVEN MILE NEAR CONAN
EARLIER THIS MORNING AND THEN
CRASHED INTO A CAR. THAT CRASH
LEFT THE OTHER DRIVER IN
CRITICAL CONDITION, POLICE SAY
AFTER THE CRASH, THE WOMAN DROVE
OFF. SHE WAS LATER ARRESTED AT
SEVEN MILE AND WOODWARD AND
ATTEMPTED SMASH AND GRAB AT A
PHARMACY IN STERLING HEIGHTS
OVERNIGHT. POLICE SAY THAT THE
THIEVES CRASH RIGHT INTO THE
MEDICINE SHOP. IT’S AT 17, MILE
AND RYAN IN THE VIDEO YOU’RE
LOOKING AT HERE SHOWS A BIG HOLE
RIGHT IN THE FRONT OF THE
BUILDING. POLICE SAY THAT THEY
WERE ABLE TO STEAL PRESCRIPTION
DRUGS THAT THIEVES WERE AND NO
ONE HAS BEEN ARRESTED JUST YET.
BUT WITHIN THE HOUR WE HEARD
FROM GOVERNOR WHITMER ABOUT THE
PRESIDENT’S CALL FOR A
SUSPENSION OF THE 18TH CENT
FEDERAL GAS TAX. YESTERDAY THE
PRESIDENT ALSO CALLED ON STATES
TO SUSPEND STATE GAS TAXES
EARLIER THIS YEAR. GOVERNOR
WHITMER AS YOU MIGHT REMEMBER,
VETOED A REPUBLICAN BILL TO
SUSPEND THE 27 CENTS PER GALLON
STATE TAX. SHE’S PUSHING TO
SUSPEND THE 6% SALES TAX ON FUEL
INSTEAD. I THINK THAT WE ARE IN
A POSITION THAT WE CAN GIVE
PEOPLE MEANINGFUL FOR, LIKE
WE’RE FINDING TRYING TO FIND
COMMON GROUND WITH THE
LEGISLATURES THAT WE CAN GET IT
DONE IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE
BUDGET AND THE COMING DAYS OR
WEEKS, PERHAPS SO I’M GOING TO
STAY AT IT, BUT I’M I BELIEVE
WE’VE GOT AN OPPORTUNITY TO GIVE
PEOPLE RELIEF. AND I’M COMMITTED
TO SEEING IT. GET OVER THE
FINISH LINE. AND IT’S NOT YET
CLEAR IF THE PRESIDENT’S
PROPOSAL HAS MUCH SUPPORT IN
CONGRESS. MEANWHILE, GAS PRICES
CONTINUING TO DIP A BIT HERE IN
MICHIGAN, THE STATE WIDE AVERAGE
IS NOW AT 5 11 AND IN METRO
DETROIT. WE’RE PAYING 5 21. OUR
PRICES, HOWEVER, STILL HIGHER
THAN THE NATIONAL AVERAGE.
THAT’S BELOW $5 AT 4 94 A GALLON
TONIGHT AT FIVE CONSUMER
INVESTIGATOR HANK WINCHESTER.
AND HELP ME HANK TEAM ARE
LOOKING INTO WHO SETS THE PRICE
AT THE PUMP A PRETTY GOOD
QUESTION. SO WE’RE TALKING TO A
LOCAL GAS STATION OWNER ABOUT
HOW PRICES JUMP AGAIN. THAT IS
AT FIVE O’CLOCK TONIGHT. MAKE
SURE YOU TUNE IN FOR THAT. THE
FIFTH HEARING IN THE JANUARY 6TH
INSURRECTION IS HAPPENING THIS
AFTERNOON, THE HOUSE SELECT
COMMITTEE WILL FOCUS ON FORMER
PRESIDENT TRUMP’S ATTEMPT TO USE
THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT TO HELP
HIM OVERTURNED THE 2020
ELECTION. THREE TOP OFFICIALS

ADMINISTRATION ARE TESTIFYING
THAT FINAL HEARING THOSE FINAL
HEARINGS SET FOR JULY AND YOU
CAN WATCH COMPLETE COVERAGE OF
TODAY’S HEARING. STARTING AT
THREE O’CLOCK THIS AFTERNOON,

SAMPLES FOR A FUTURE REBUILDING

LIFE. FIND OUT HOW A GRUBHUB
ORDER GOT HER OUT OF A VERY
DANGEROUS SITUATION. AS SHE WAS

BODY IS PUT ON LEAVE AFTER HIS
DECISION TO DELAY GOING AFTER
THE SCHOOL SHOOTER, WE’RE GOING
