THROUGH TWO CITIES.
SKY 4 OVER THE SCENE WHEN THE
CHASE CAME TO AN END THIS
AFTERNOON ON I-696.
THIS IS IN WARREN.
CIRCUMSTANCES LEADING TO THE
ARREST ARE STILL A LITTLE
UNCLEAR BUT WE DO KNOW IT
STARTED ON DETROIT’S EAST SIDE.
WE’RE TOLD POLICE WERE LOOKING
FOR A PERSON WANTED FOR ASSAULT
WITH INTENT TO MURDER.
OFFICERS SURROUNDED THE
SUSPECT’S GRAY SEDAN HERE ON THE
FREEWAY WHEN HE SURRENDERED, SO
FAR NO WORD ON ANY CHARGES.
JEWELL JONES WILL NOT FACE MORE
JAIL TIME FOR HIS DRUNK DRIVING
ARREST AND SCUFFLE WITH
LIVINGSTON POLICE.
A LIVINGSTON COUNTY JUDGE
SENTENCED HIM TO TWO YEARS
PROBATION.
EARLIER THIS MONTH JONES PLEADED
GUILTY FROM CHARGES STEMMING
FROM A DRUNK DRIVING ARREST IN
LIVINGSTON COUNTY.
HE MUST SERVE 100 HOURS OF
COMMUNITY SERVICE AND SERVE 180
DAYS IN JAIL.

WINDS LIGHT BLOWING FROM THE
WESTERLY DIRECTION.
MOST OF US NOT GETTING AN IMPACT
FROM THE COLD LAKES BUT GROSS
EEL ALL DAY TODAY HAS BEEN IN
THE UPPER 40s AND LOW 50s.
AT LEASTED SOUTHERN ENDS OF THE
ISLAND THERE.
EVEN WITH THE COLD FRONT COMING
THROUGH, NO RAIN WITH THIS COLD
FRONT BUT WE’LL GET A LOT OF
RAIN ACTUALLY COMING TOMORROW
NIGHT.
THROUGH THE EVENING THERE WILL
BE A QUICK DROP IN TEMPERATURE
BEHIND THE COLD FRONT.
IT WILL BE DRY BUT BE AWARE THAT
IT’S MILD RIGHT NOW BUT IN
YOU’RE GOING TO BE OUT LATE
TONIGHT IT WILL BE QUITE CHILLY
WHEN YOU COME OUT OF THE PARTY,
THE BAR, WHATEVER, HAD ANY
EVENT, TEMPERATURES CAN REALLY
TAKE A DIVE AS WE GET INTO THE
POST WEEKEND PERIOD.

UKRAINE’S INTERIOR MINISTER
IDENTIFIED HIM AS A MAN FROM
MINNESOTA SAY HE WAS KILLED WHEN
RUSSIAN TROOPS OPENED FIRE
FILLED WITH CIVILIANS.
AND HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE HAD TAKEN
SHELTER INSIDE, RIGHT NOW IT’S
UNCLEAR IF ANYONE WAS KILLED IN
THAT AIRSTRIKE.
BUT WE DO KNOW THERE ARE SOME
SURVIVORS.
THE U.S. SAYS IT IS DOCUMENTING
POTENTIAL WAR CRIMES COMMITTED
BY RUSSIA, COMING UP ON NBC

>> OAKLAND COUNTY SHERIFF’S
DEPUTIES BELIEVE THEY HAVE NEW
EVIDENCE TO LAST MONTH’S MASSIVE
FIRE AT OAKLAND HILLS COUNTRY
CLUB THAT SHOWS IT MAY HAVE BEEN
STARTED ACCIDENTALLY.
NEWLY RECOVERED SURVEILLANCE
VIDEO SHOWS MAINTENANCE WORKERS
USING A PROPANE BLOW TORCH ON
THE PATIO, AND INVESTIGATORS SAY
THE TORCHES WERE USED TO SPEED
UP THE DRYING OF RUBBER FLASHING
THAT PREVENTS TBREART GETTING
INTO THE CLUBHOUSE.
AT SOME POINT THE CREW NOTICED
IT HAD SPARKED A FIRE INSIDE THE
WALL THERE AND THEY TRIED TO PUT
IT OUT WITH A HOSE.
LATER YOU’LL SEE FIREFIGHTERS
SHOW UP HERE AND THEY TAKE TO
THE WALL WITH AN AX AND THEN YOU
SAW THE FIRE AND SMOKE COMING
OUT.
AN OFFICIAL CAUSE TO WHAT HAPPENED THERE, THOUGH, STILL
HAPPENED THERE, THOUGH, STILL
COULD TAKE A YEAR THE THEIR
LOVED ONE RECENTLY DIED AFTER
CAR ACCIDENT AND NOW WARNING
OTHERS ABOUT GIVING IN TO
DISTRACTIONS WHILE BEHIND THE
WHEEL OF A CAR.
>> ON A BEAUTIFUL SPRING DAY
JEFF CORBY IS AWARE OF ONE THING
AND ONE THING ONLY.
HIS SISTER WILL NOT ENJOY IT.
>> HE WAS DRIVING NORTHBOUND ON
VAN DYKE AND THE OTHER VEHICLE
WAS TRAVELING WESTBOUND ON
STEVENS AND APPROXIMATELY 80
MILES PER HOUR.
COLLIDED WITH HER VEHICLE.
>> Reporter: 25-YEAR-OLD KIA
LANDERS WAS INVOLVED IN A
VIOLENT CRASH IN WARREN MARCH
5th.
SHE LOST HER BATTLE WITH HER
INJURIES MARCH 10th.
MARCH 10th, HER FAMILY IS
TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO BURY
HER, HOW TO LET HER 2-YEAR-OLD
DAUGHTER KNOW HER MOTHER IS
NEVER COMING HOME AGAIN AND HOW
TO MAKE SENSE OF THE LOSS THE.
>> IT REALLY DOES BREAK MY HEART
ON THE FACT THAT ASKING PEOPLE
FOR MONEY JUST TO BURY MY
SISTER.
YOU KNOW, IT DOESN’T -- THIS
ISN’T SOMETHING THAT I WANTED TO
DO.
IT’S NOT SOMETHING THAT I FELT I
SHOULD HAVE HAD TO DO AT THIS
POINT IN IN LIFE.
>> THEIR MESSAGE TO THE WORLD IS
A VALUABLE LIFE WAS LOST IN A
SPLIT SECOND.
AND OTHER VALUABLE LIVES ARE
LOST IN SPLIT SECONDS.
AND THEY WANT PEOPLE TO TAKE
MORE THAN A MOMENT TO CONSIDER
EVERY SECOND THEY’RE BEHIND THE
WHEEL OF A VEHICLE.
>> I WANT PEOPLE TO UNDERSTAND
THAT WHEN THINGS HAPPEN THAT YOU
CAMES DEATH IT’S SOMETHING THEY
NEED TO HEAR ABOUT, NOT
SOMETHING THEY CAN JUST BRUSH
UNDER A RUG.
>> THIS FAMILY WANTS TO REMIND
EVERYONE THAT GETTING DISTRACTED
COST LIVES.
>> SHE COULD JUST BRIGHTEN A
ROOM.
WALK IN A ROOM, TALK TO ANYBODY
AND JUST MAKE YOUR DAY BETTER,
YOU KNOW, WASN’T EVEN ABOUT WHO
SHE WAS AS A PERSON, YOU KNOW,
YOU COULD HAVE A BAD DAY AND SHE
COULD TALK TO YOU IS YOU WOULD
HAVE A BETTER DAY FROM THAT
MOMENT ON.
>> A LIFE WAS LOST, SOB
OBVIOUSLY THERE’S AN ONGOING
POLICE INVESTIGATION, BUT THAT’S
NOT WHAT HER FAMILY IS CONCERNED
WITH RIGHT NOW.
THEY ARE DEALING WITH THEIR OWN
GRIEF AND LOSS, AND THEY DON’T
WANT THEIR LOVED ONE TO SLIP
INTO OBLIVION AS JUST ANOTHER
VICTIM OF A CAR ACCIDENT. WHAT THEY REALLY WANT PEOPLE TO
WHAT THEY REALLY WANT PEOPLE TO
DO IS REMEMBER THE NAME BEFORE
