>> Announcer: LIVE FROM
DOWNTOWN DETROIT, HOME LOCAL
4 NEWS AT NOON STARTS NOW.
>>> THE MAYOR OF KYIV
ANNOUNCES A 35 HOUR CURFEW
FOR PEOPLE IN THE CAPITAL.
WARNING "TODAY IS A
DIFFICULT AND DANGEROUS
MOMENT."
THIS COMES AFTER RUSSIA
STEPS UP ITS BOMBARDMENT OF
KYIV DEVASTATING AN
APARTMENT HOUSE AND OTHER
BUILDINGS.
THE WAR IN UKRAINE TOPS OUR
NEWS HERE AT NOON.
THANK YOU FOR JOINING US,
I’M EVROD CASSIMY.
JUST A FEW MOMENTS AGO THE
UKRAINIAN PRESIDENT
ADDRESSED CANADA’S
PARLIAMENT AND ASKED THEM TO
CLOSE THE SKIES.
ALSO TODAY, THE PRIME
MINISTERS OF POLAND, THE
CZECH REPUBLIC AND SLOVENIA
TRAVELLED TO KYIV FOR TALKS
WITH PRESIDENT ZELENSKY EVEN
AS BUILDINGS THERE WERE
ABLAZE AND RESCUE WORKERS
WERE TRYING TO PULL
SURVIVORS FROM THE RUBBLE OF
RUSSIAN BOMBARDMENT.
THE VISIT COMES AT A TIME
WHEN UKRAINIAN OFFICIALS ARE
PLAYING UP THE HOPE THE WAR
COULD END SOONER THAN
EXPECTED.
IN THE LATEST HINT AT
COMPROMISE PRESIDENT
ZELENSKY SAID KYIV WAS
PREPARED TO ACCEPT SECURITY
-- 2,000 CARS CARRYING
CIVILIANS HAVE MANAGED TO
ESCAPE THE HARD HIT CITY OF
MARIUPOL ALONG AN EVACUATION
ROUTE.
THIS AS THE U.S. CONTINUES
TO MONITOR THE SITUATION
CLOSELY.
FROM STRIKING AN APARTMENT
BUILDING WITH SLEEPING
CIVILIANS INSIDE TO HITTING
A UKRAINIAN MILITARY BASE,
RUSSIAN FORCES CONTINUE
THEIR RELENTLESS ATTACKS.
>> IT CERTAINLY APPEARS AS
IF THE RUSSIANS ARE
BROADENING THEIR TARGETS.
>> Reporter: THE U.S. IS
WORKING TO GET $200 MILLION
IN SUPPLIES TO UKRAINIAN
FORCES AND FAST.
DEFENSE OFFICIALS TELL US
THE COUNTRY’S RESISTANCE SO
FAR HAS FRUSTRATED RUSSIAN
PRESIDENT VLADIMIR PUTIN.
>> HE CLEARLY HAS MORE THAN
A MESSAGE IN MIND HERE.
HE CLEARLY HAS THE
OCCUPATION OF UKRAINE IN
MIND.
>> Reporter: U.S. OFFICIALS
ARE CONCERNED RAUSCH RUSSIA
IS DESPERATE REACHING OUT
FOR MILITARY AND ECONOMIC
AID FROM CHINA.
CHINESE LEADERS CALLED IT
DISINFORMATION.
THE STATE DEPARTMENT WARNING
ASSISTING RUSSIA WOULD BE
COSTLY FOR THEM.
>> THOUGH WE WILL NOT ALLOW
ANY COUNTRY TO COMPENSATE
RUSSIA FOR ITS LOSSES.
>> Reporter: AS UJANE --
UKRAINIANS FLEE TO SAFETY
UKRAINE’S PRESIDENT WILL
ADDRESS CONGRESS.
>> IT WILL BE A PRIVILEGE
FOR US TO HEAR FROM THIS
CHAMPION OF DEMOCRACY.
>> Reporter: PRESIDENT
ZELENSKY IS EXPECTED TO
AGAIN APPEAL FOR A NO-FLY
ZONE OR FIGHTER JETS.
>> I BELIEVE WE’RE GOING TO
END UP IN A POINT WHERE WE
HAVE TO BASICALLY GO
TOE-TO-TOE WITH SOME VERSION
WITH RUSSIA.
RUSSIA LET’S BE CLEAR,
THEY’RE THE ONES ESCALATING
THIS FIGHT.
>> Reporter: THE WHITE HOUSE
IS FOCUS ON SEND AGO
DEFENSIVE WEAPONS INSTEAD.
A PRESIDENTIAL VISIT TO
EUROPE COULD FOLLOW IN THE
COMING WEEKS.
IN THE MEANTIME, THE NUMBER
OF PEOPLE THAT THE WAR HAS
DRIVEN FROM UKRAINE HAS
PASSED THREE MILLION.
JAY GRAY HAS THAT PART OF
THE STORY FROM THE POLISH
UKRAINIAN BORDER.
>> Reporter: HEY, THERE.
WE’RE RIGHT UP AGAINST IT
YOU CAN SEE THIS IS BORDER
BETWEEN POLAND AND UKRAINE.
FAMILIES CONTINUE TO MOVE IN
WALKING THIS TRAIL FROM
UKRAINE INTO POLAND.
NOW WHEN THE DAY STARTED
PEOPLE WERE COMING THROUGH
IN WAVES.
A LITTLE LIGHTER THAN
FRANKLY WE HAD SEEN IN THE
PAST.
I THOUGHT WELL, MAYBE TODAY
IS DATE WHEN THINGS WILL
SLOW DOWN WHEN WE WON’T SEE
AS MANY PEOPLE MAKING THIS
JOURNEY.
AS THE DAY PROGRESSED WE
CERTAINLY DID.
WE SAW FAMILIES LINING UP
FOR BUSES TO TAKE THEM TO
SHELTERS AND TO TRAIN
STATIONS AND SOME OF THOSE
LINES AS LONG AS WE’VE SEEN
IN THE THREE WEEKS HERE.
BUT THERE ARE A COUPLE
FACTORS IN ALL OF THIS.
LET’S TALK A LITTLE BIT
ABOUT IT.
FIRST OF ALL YOU HAVE ABOUT
SEVEN MILLION PEOPLE IN
UKRAINE WHO ARE DISPLACED
WHO DON’T HAVE A HOME TO GO
TO.
THEIR HOMES AND COMMUNITIES
HAVE BEEN DISRUPTED BY THIS
TOWARD.
SO, YOU HAVE TO FIGURE SOME
OF THEM ARE TRYING TO MAKE
THEIR WAY THIS WAY.
BUT THEN YOU’VE ALSO GOT A
MISSILE ATTACK THAT HAPPENED
OVER THE WEEKEND.
ONLY ABOUT 15 MILES FROM
WHERE WE’RE STANDING RIGHT
NOW.
SO, THOSE WHO HAVE TAKEN
SOME REFUGE IN THE WESTERN
SECTION OF UKRAINE, LAVIV
WHICH IS NOT FAR FROM WHERE
WE ARE RIGHT NOW HAVE BEEN
ALERTED TO THE FACT THAT THE
WAR HAS MADE IT TO THEIR
AREAS.
THOSE WHO TRAVELLED FROM THE
EAST TO THE WEST NOW PERHAPS
MAKING THE TRIP AS WELL
BECAUSE THEY JUST DON’T FEEL
SAFE.
THAT’S THE LATEST RIGHT NOW
HERE ALONG THE POLAND
UKRAINE BORDER.
I’M JAY GRAY, BACK TO YOU.
>> ALL RIGHT, JAY, THANK
YOU.
WHILE MANY PEOPLE ARE TRYING
TO ESCAPE THERE’S ONE WHO
WAS CHOSEN TO STAY HE WAS
BORN AND RAISED IN DETROIT
AS WELL BUT HE’S CALLED
UKRAINE HOME FOR YEARS.
SINCE 2009, ACTUALLY NOT
EVEN A WAR WILL FORCE HIM
OUT OF HIS HOME.
SO TONIGHT AT 5:00, I WILL
SHOW YOU HOW HE’S HELPING
OTHERS ESCAPE THE COUNTRY
WHILE EVEN RISKING HIS OWN
LIFE FOR THEIR SAFETY.
BE SURE TO STICK WITH US
HERE AT LOCAL 4 AND
CLICKONDETROIT.COM FOR
CONTINUING COVERAGE OF THE
WAR IN UKRAINE AS WE GET NEW
INFORMATION INTO THE LOCAL 4
NEWSROOM.
>>> NOW TO A LOCAL 4 NEWS
UPDATE.
THE MAN WANTED FOR A DEADLY
SHOOTING AT THE NORMANDY
HOTEL HAS BEEN FOUND.
POLICE SAY THIS MAN JAMAR
TUBS SHOT A 46-YEAR-OLD
MAINTENANCE WORKER YESTERDAY
AT THE HOTEL IN WOODWARD IN
DETROIT.
WE’RE TOLD HE THEN TOOK OFF
AFTER THE SHOOTING.
DETROIT POLICE ARE EXPECTED
TO RELEASE MORE INFORMATION
ABOUT HIS CAPTURE SOMETIME
TODAY.
>>> ALSO MAKING HEADLINES AT
THIS HOUR, THE CRIME IS
SERIOUS AND THE HIDING PLACE
IS PRETTY UNEXPECTED AND AS
YOU CAN SEE HERE IN THIS
PHOTO, A DEARBORN BANK
ROBBERY SUSPECT WAS CAUGHT
HIDING IN A PORT A POTTY.
OUR PAM OSBORNE HAS A LOOK
AT WHAT HAPPENED BEFORE THE
SUSPECT ENDED UP IN THE
TOILET.
>> Reporter: EVROD, THIS
COULD HAVE ENDED UP A LOT OF
PLACES BUT THAT SEARCH FOR
THE SUSPECT ENDED HERE IN
THIS PORTA POTTY HIDING
INSIDE WAS HIS DISGUISE, THE
NOTE HE PASSED ALONG TO THE
TELLER AND ALL OF THE CASH
HE MADE OFF WITH.
BEFORE CHARLES WOOLERY WAS
CAUGHT HANDS UP IN HERE,
DEARBORN POLICE SAY HE HE
WALKED INTO THE DEARBORN
FEDERAL SAVINGS BANK ON
MICHIGAN AVENUE IN DEARBORN
AND ROBBED IT.
IT WAS WEDNESDAY, MARCH 2nd.
THE CRIMINAL COMPLAINT
DETAILS WHAT HAPPENED NEXT.
WOOLERY HANDED THE TELLER A
NOTE WHICH READ SMILE, PUT
ALL THE 10, 20, 50, 100
DOLLARS IN A BAG.
NO DYE PACKS NO G.P.S., DO
NOT HIT THE ALARM TILL I
LEAVE OR I WILL KILL
EVERYONE.
HE GESTURED AT HIS HIP AS IF
HE HAD A GUN.
THE TELLER PUT THE MONEY IN
THE BAG NEARLY $1700.
WOOLERY LEFT THE BANK ACROSS
MICHIGAN AVENUE.
CAMERAS CAUGHT HIM MAKE HIS
MOVE TO THE PARKING LOT IN
THE BACK WHERE HE FOUND ASK
DISAPPEARED INTO A PORTA
POTTY.
IT WAS REALLY GOOD POLICE
WORK THAT LED TO THIS QUICK
CAPTURE WHEN POLICE CAUGHT
UP WITH WOOLERY, BY THE WAY,
HE ASKED WHAT HE WAS BEING
CHARGED WITH, WHAT HE WAS
BEING ARRESTED FOR WHEN THEY
INFORMED HIM THAT IT WAS
ARMED ROBBERY HE SAID BUT I
DIDN’T HAVE A GUN ON ME.
HE’S NOW FACING SOME PRETTY
SERIOUS CHARGES AND THE
F.B.I. IS INVESTIGATING.
IN DEARBORN, I’M PAMELA

CERTAINLY CAN’T HIDE, THANK
YOU, PAMELA.

>>> THE C.D.C. IS CONTINUING
TO MONITOR WASTE WATER TO
TRACK COVID CASES AND IT’S
SEEING A CONCERNING TREND.
MORE SEWAGE SYSTEMS ARE
DETECTING INCREASED LEVELS
OF CORONAVIRUS LATELY.
THE C.D.C. SAYS THAT 40% OF
SAMPLING SITES REPORTED A
JUMP OVER LAST TWO WEEKS.
THAT’S MORE THAN TWICE WHAT
IT WAS A MONTH AGO.
WASTE WATER CANNOT ESTIMATE
THE NUMBER OF CASES IN A
COMMUNITY BUT IT CAN BE
SOMEWHAT OF AN EARLY WARNING
SIGN OF TRANSMISSION.
IT OFTEN DETECTS INCREASED
INFECTION DAYS BEFORE
POSITIVE CASE COUNTS.
>>> STILL TO COME HERE ON
LOCAL 4 NEWS AT NOON, GAS
PRICES THEY’RE STILL SOARING
ALL ACROSS THE COUNTRY IN
FACT.
BUT AFTER THE BREAK WE’LL
