WEATHER WITH IT.

THIS IS NOT GOING TO BE ALL
SNOW.

BAD AS WHAT IS SHOWING UP OR

WE HAVE DRY AIR AND YOU’VE GOT
TO GET DOWN TO FINLEY BEFORE
THAT PRECIPITATION IS ACTUALLY
MAKING IT TO THE SURFACE.
LIMA SHOWING A FEW FLAKES THERE,
BUT TOLEDO AND COLDWATER ARE
BOTH DRY AS ARE POINTS NORTH.
I THINK IT WILL BE CLOSER TO
7:00 BEFORE THIS STARTS TO ROLL
INTO THE SOUTH ZONE, LIKELY
STARTING AS A MIX AND FREEZING
RAIN, AND THERE’S THE
POSSIBILITY THAT IN SOME OF THAT
FREEZING RAIN COULD PUT DOWN A
SMALL GLAZE.
A LOT OF THAT WILL BE SOUTH OF 8
MILE.
NORTH OF THERE, THAT’S PRETTY
MUCH SNOW THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT.
YES, THERE WILL BE MINOR
ACCUMULATIONS AND WE’LL STRESS
THE WORD "MINOR" AND JUST FREAK
OUT ANYWAY.

LOW TO MID-30s AND MIX THROUGH
THE EVENING HOURS.

CLOSELY. >>> ATTORNEYS FOR THE WIXOM MAN

AT THE U.S. CAPITOL WAS IN COURT
TODAY.
>> Kim: MICHAEL FOY WAS BACK IN
COURT TODAY.
>> Shawn: AND THIS WAS A BIG
BATTLE INSIDE A COURTROOM, A
FEDERAL COURTROOM IN D.C.
WHEN IT WAS ALL SAID AND DONE,
BIG ARGUMENTS ON BOTH SIDES,
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT AND MICHAEL
FOY AND HIS ATTORNEY.
THE JUDGE LET FOY HAVE IT SAYING
YOU’RE NO HERO, YOU WEREN’T
DEFENDING ANYONE AND DENIED
LETTING HIM OUT ON BOND.
THIS VIDEO IS SHOCKING.
IT IS BODY CAMERA VIDEO FROM A
POLICE OFFICER JANUARY 6th,
BEATEN BY A MAN ARMED WITH A
HOCKEY STICK.
FEDERAL PROSECUTORS SAY THEY
USED VIDEOS, NEWS FOOTAGE AND
SOCIAL MEDIA POSTS TO IDENTIFY
THE MAN THEY SAY IS MICHAEL FOY
FROM WIXOM.
THE FEDS HIT HIM WITH 5 FELONIES
AND HELD IN JAIL SINCE THEY
RAIDED HIS WIXOM CONDO JANUARY
21st.
TODAY, HE WENT TO COURT ARGUING
HE WANTS TO BE RELEASED ON BOND
THE FEDS ARGUE NO WAY, ARGUE HE
ALLEGEDLY BROUGHT THE HOCKEY
STICK FROM MICHIGAN TO D.C. TO
USE IT AS A WEAPON AND THEY SAY
HE DID JUST THAT AGAINST POLICE. AND FEDS FILED A NEW PHOTO THEY
AND FEDS FILED A NEW PHOTO THEY
SAY IS FOY, THROWING A SHARPENED
POLE AND ARGUE HE WENT INSIDE
ALLEGEDLY YELLED FOR OTHERS TO
JOIN IN AND PROSECUTORS TOOK A
PHOTO OFF OF FOY’S OWN CELL
PHONE SHOWING THE MOB TRASHING
THAT PART OF THE CAPITOL.
HE HAS A VETERAN WASHINGTON,
D.C., ATTORNEY.
AND FEDERAL PROSECUTORS HAVE
ZERO EVIDENCE HE RALLIED OTHERS
TO JOIN IN ON VIOLENCE THAT
FORCED MEMBERS OF VIOLENCE AND
THE VICE PRESIDENT TO EVACUATE
AND THAT PEOPLE WERE BEING
CRUSHED AND SMOTHERED IN THE
CHAOS AND HE SAID IT WAS FOY
USING THE HOCKEY STICK TO HELP
THEM, KRAMER ARGUING THAT FOY’S
ACTIONS IN THE 25 SECONDS WERE
JUSTIFIED.
BOTTOM LINE, THE JUDGE SAYING NO
TO THAT ARGUMENT AND HOLDING FOY
AGAIN IN CUSTODY UNTIL HIS NEXT
HEARING ON APRIL 9.
FOY HAS PLEADED NOT GUILTY TO
EACH AND EVERY ONE OF THESE
CHARGES.
>> Kim: AND HE HAD ANOTHER
REQUEST FOR THE JUDGE.
TALK ABOUT THAT.
>> Shawn: REQUEST AND AN
ARGUMENT.

>> Devin: 3.2 MILLION
VACCINATIONS WERE GIVEN OUT THIS

SECOND DOSE OF THE VACCINE

SYSTEMS WERE IN PLACE TO MAKE
SURE THE DOSES WERE NOT WASTED.
