AS THE HEAD OF THE STERLING
CIVIC THEATER, AND IS KNOWN AS
AN ADVOCATE FOR CHILDREN WITH
DISABILITIES, THE VICTIM IN ALL
OF THIS WHO DOESN’T WANT TO BE
IDENTIFIED. SPOKE WITH US ON THE

GRABBING A COKE. HE WAS PRESSING
THE BARTENDER TO OVER SERVE HIM
IN. THE BARTENDER KEPT REFUSING
ACTUALLY CUT RIGHT IN FRONT OF
ME. AND ARE YOU BUYING? AND I
SAID, SURE. WHAT WAS NEXT MONTH
? FAMILY GUY? DRINK FOR ANYBODY?
I DON’T CARE. AND HE SAID. OH,

TAKE A DRINK FROM A DIRTY I
SAID, OKAY, THAT’S NO PROBLEM
AND THEN FIVE SECONDS LATER,
HE’S HE’S PUSHING HIS NOSE INTO
MY NOSE AND THREATENING TO KILL
ME AND ALL THIS OTHER STUFF, AND
I JUST KIND OF PUSHED HIM BACK
AND HE PUNCHED IN THE FACE.
SHELBY POLICE WERE CALLED, BUT

PUNCHED HIM. NOT ONCE, BUT TWICE
. HE SAYS HE’D NEVER MET HIM IN
PERSON AND DIDN’T KNOW WHO HE

COUNTY. TOMORROW HE’LL BE IN

MICHIGAN. A G CANDIDATE, MATT
DEEPER, NO, AND SECRETARY OF
STATE CANDIDATE KRISTINA KARAM.
OH, IT’S PRESIDENT TRUMP’S FIRST
TRIP BACK TO MICHIGAN SINCE THAT
CAMPAIGN RALLY IN GRAND RAPIDS
JUST BEFORE ELECTION 2020.
WHETHER YOU’RE OUTSIDE FOR A
RALLY OR JUST SOME SPRING YARD
WORK, MAYBE YOU MIGHT ENCOUNTER
A LITTLE BIT OF RAIN THIS
WEEKEND. PAUL IS TRACKING OUR
CHANCES HERE FOR SOME WET
WEATHER. PAUL. YES, WE HAVE KIND
OF INTERESTING WEEKEND AHEAD AND
I’M GETTING A NEW MODEL IN RIGHT
NOW. HOPEFULLY IT’LL FINISH JUST
BEFORE WE GET TO OUR MAIN
WEATHER SEGMENT ABOUT 10 15
MINUTES AND WE’LL SEE IF THERE
ANY TRENDS THAT WE CAN DEVELOP
FOR YOUR WEEKEND IN TERMS OF
TIMING THE RANGE BUT RIGHT NOW
WE HAVE TEMPERATURES IN THE
THIRTIES ACROSS THE AREA AND I
TALK ALL THE TIME ABOUT HOW
CLOUDS ARE A BLANKET AND KEEP
THINGS FROM COOLING OFF AS
QUICK, WELL, AREAS THAT HAVE
SEEN THE CLEARING COME IN, HAVE
SEEN TEMPERATURES DROPPED THREE
OR FOUR DEGREES IN ONE HOUR IN
SOME SPOTS, SO THAT’S HAPPENING
, BUT RIGHT NOW, MOST OF US ARE
IN THE THIRTIES AND THE WINDOWS
LIGHTENING UP BIG TIME. SO WIND
CHILL IS NOT AN ISSUE IF YOU’RE
HEADING OUT RIGHT NOW, FOR ANY
REASON. STILL HAVE SOME CLOUDS
AROUND. BUT THIS CLEARING IS
COMING IN VERY AGGRESSIVELY FROM
THE WEST. SO WE’RE GOING TO SEE
THOSE CLEARING SKIES, WHICH
MEANS WE’LL WAKE UP WITH
SUNSHINE TOMORROW, BUT THAT RAIN
IS GOING TO DEVELOP, SO WE’RE
GOING TO BREAK DOWN THAT TIMING
COMING UP. SUNDAY WE’RE GOING TO
SEE HIM WAITING FOR THAT NEW
MODEL. BUT SEE IF THERE ANY
TRENDS. IT LOOKED LIKE A SPOTTY
SHOWER POSSIBLE, BUT REALLY THE
MORE IMPORTANT THING THIS
WEEKEND TEMPERATURES REBOUNDING
BACK INTO THE UPPER FORTIES TO
NEAR 50 DEGREES AFTER THIRTIES
TODAY, ALL RIGHT, DON’T FORGET
THE LOCAL FORECASTERS, APP.
TOMORROW YOU’LL REALLY WANT TO
HAVE THIS APP. I KNOW MOST OF
YOU DO BUT THE REAL TIME RADAR
THE AFTERNOON IF YOU’RE TRYING
TO GET SOME YARD WORK DONE, OR
WHATEVER. CHECK THE REAL TIME
RADAR TRACK THE PROGRESS OF THE
RAIN. IT’S ALL THERE RIGHT
THERE. IT’S REALLY EASY. YOU CAN
PAN AND ZOOM WITH YOUR FINGERS
ON THAT RADAR MAP TO SEE
ANYWHERE YOU WANT TO SEE IN THE
COUNTRY OF THE WORLD. IT’S FREE.
