IT’S AT AN OAKLAND COUNTY HOME. INVESTIGATORS SAY A CHILD WAS NEARBY WHILE ALL THIS WAS
HAPPENING, AND THAT ARREST TOPS
OUR NEWS TONIGHT AT SIX. GOOD
HAVE YOU WITH US? I’M
DEVIN SCILLIAN. I’M KIMBERLY
GILL TYLER’S ALLMAN IS NOW
FACING CHARGES IN FEDERAL COURT
FOR WHAT WAS FOUND IN THAT
PONTIAC HOME. GRANT HERMES JOINS
US LIVE TO WALK US THROUGH THIS
CASE, GRANT KIMBERLY DEVIN, THIS
MAN WAS A FELON WHO WASN’T
ALLOWED TO HAVE A FIREARM.
INSTEAD, AUTHORITIES FOUND A
PILE OF THEM IN THESE PICTURES
FROM HIS PHONE. THE EVIDENCE
HERE SO OVERWHELMING, EVEN
SOLVENT, SAYING IN A RECORDED
JAILHOUSE PHONE CALL THAT THE
AUTHORITIES HAD HIM DEAD TO
RIGHTS. FEDERAL PROSECUTORS
NAMING THIS MAN 31 YEAR OLD
TYLER JAMES ALLMAN IN A DRUG
COOKING AND GUN DEALING SCHEME
OUT OF HIS HOME IN PONTIAC, THE
JOINT TASK FORCE MADE UP OF
FEDERAL AND LOCAL LAW
ENFORCEMENT STARTED THEIR
INVESTIGATION AT THE END OF LAST
MONTH AFTER A FRIEND OF
SOLOMON’S REPORTED SOMEONE HAD
BROKEN INTO THEIR HOME AND USED
A SLEDGE HAMMER AND CROWBAR TO
BREAK INTO A FIREARM SAFE
STEALING 15 WEAPONS.
INVESTIGATORS LATER USE A
WARRANT ON SALMONS HOME AND
FOUND A NUMBER OF WEAPONS FROM
PISTOLS TO SHOTGUNS TO RUN.
RIFLES EVEN SOME LEFT IN THE
OPEN IN THE LIVING ROOM, WHILE
OF ONE YEAR OLD WAS PRESENT.
THESE IMAGES FOUND AFTER A
SEARCH OF ALMONDS PHONE ALSO
REVEALING IMAGES OF SALMAN
ALLEGEDLY COOKING CRACK AND TEXT
MESSAGES TO AN UNKNOWN WOULD BE
BUYER. ZALMAN TEXTING? YEAH GET
ME SOME CRACKHEADS. I’LL HOOK
YOU UP. THIS IS THE BEST DOUBLE
ROUND MAN. EVERYONE WHO TRIES IT
LOVES IT. LOCAL FOREST LAW
ENFORCEMENT ANALYST DARNELL
BLACKBURN, SAYING THESE KINDS OF
CASES ARE SOME OF THE MOST
DANGEROUS FOR OFFICERS TO MAKE
AN ARREST. YOU DON’T KNOW WHAT’S
IN SOMEBODY’S HOUSE. YOU NEVER
KNOW. AND SO THAT’S WHY POLICE
OFFICERS TAKE EXTREME CAUTION.
WHEN THEY APPROACHED THE HOUSE.
THAT’S WHY THEY DON’T PARK IN
FRONT OF THE HOUSE. THAT’S WHY
THEY APPROACH HOUSES, YOU KNOW,
COVERTLY. AND THEN THE OTHER
PART OF THIS IS THAT YOU KNOW,
WE DON’T WANT TO HARM AN
INNOCENT PERSON WHO’S CAUGHT IN
THE CROSSFIRE OF SOMEBODY WHO
DOESN’T CARE ABOUT THEMSELVES.
AND HAS BEEN SUCCESSFULLY
ARRESTED AND IS CHARGED WITH A
LONG LIST OF FELONIES, INCLUDING
FIVE DIFFERENT GUN CHARGES AND
TWO DRUG CHARGES. INTERESTINGLY
ENOUGH, A CHILD ENDANGERMENT
CHARGE OF ANY KIND WAS NOT
INCLUDED ON THIS LIST. BACK TO
YOU. WHAT KIND OF PRISON TIME
COULD HE BE LOOKING AT HERE?
THAT GETS A LITTLE TRICKY
KIMBERLY, BUT WHEN YOU LOOK AT
FEDERAL STATUTES HE COULD BE
FACING UP TO ABOUT 60 YEARS
BEHIND BARS, AND AGAIN. HE IS A
BALANCE THAT COULD ALSO PLAY
INTO THIS AS THIS MOVES FORWARD
THROUGH THE COURT SYSTEM, OKAY,
WE’LL BE FOLLOWING IT, GRANT.
THANK YOU TO SOMETHING THAT HAS
BEEN AN ISSUE FOR PEOPLE LIVING
THERE. I 75 FOR YEARS. THE NOISE
COMING FROM THE HIGHWAY TRAFFIC
NOW IN DOT HOLDING A MEETING FOR
PEOPLE TO WEIGH IN ON WHETHER
SOUND BARRIERS ARE NEEDED IN
MORE PARTS OF OAKLAND COUNTY.
THE DEPARTMENT HAS BEEN STUDYING
THE AREA FROM 13 MILD ADAMS ROAD
, MEGAN WOODS WENT TO TROY TO
GET AN IDEA OF HOW PEOPLE FEEL
AHEAD OF NEXT WEEK’S MEETING.
MEGAN DE’VEON. WE’RE HERE WHERE
YOU CAN HEAR THE CARS GOING DOWN
. I 75 RIGHT NOW. WE SPOKE TO
PEOPLE WHO SAY IT’S JUST TOO
LOUD WHILE OTHER PEOPLE SAY
THEY’VE BEEN LIVING IN THE AREA
FOR SO LONG, THEY DON’T EVEN
HEAR IT. IT’S ONE THING TO DRIVE
ON. I 75 IN TROY, BUT IT’S
ANOTHER TO LIVE ALONG IT. THE
NOISE LEVELS GOT INTO A POINT
WHERE IT’S IT MAKES SITTING
OUTSIDE ON YOUR PATIO LIKE NOT
AS ENJOYABLE. NOW YOU CAN HEAR
IT IN THE BACKGROUND. AND YOU
KNOW, WE’RE LIKE TWO BLOCKS AWAY
FROM IT. SO WHERE WE’RE AT, YOU
CAN DEFINITELY HEAR IT INSIDE
THE HOUSE NOW. YOU KNOW, THE
TREES HAVE GOT ALL THE LEAVES
ON. IT’S NOT QUITE AS
NOTICEABLE. BUT IN THE WINTER
WHEN THERE BARE YOU CAN REALLY
HEAR IT. YOU CAN HEAR IT INSIDE
. ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU GO TO
SLEEP AT NIGHT. YOU KNOW, YOU
CAN JUST HEAR THAT WHITE NOISE,
BUT I DON’T KNOW WHAT THEY CALL
IT, BUT YOU CAN DEFINITELY HEAR
THE FREEWAY NOISE A BIT MORE
PROMINENTLY NOW AT NIGHT TO SOME
BELIEVE IT HAS GOTTEN WORSE OVER
THE YEARS. IT WAS ALWAYS MAKING
NOISE, BUT IT’S A LOT WORSE NOW,
AND THEY RAISED THE HEIGHT OF
THE ROAD. SO THE BERM THAT WE
HAVE BEHIND US, YOU KNOW, KIND
OF DEFEATS THE PURPOSE OF
BECAUSE NOW YOU HAVE MORE NOISE
GOING OVER THE TOP OF IT, SO
IT’S JUST GETTING WORSE. I GUESS
THE POINT, MICHIGAN DEPARTMENT
OF TRANSPORTATION AND DAD DID
HIS STUDY AND TO TUESDAY, IS
HOSTING A PUBLIC OPEN HOUSE TO
DISCUSS RESULTS, INCLUDING A
PRESENTATION AND ANSWERING
QUESTIONS OR HOPING THAT THE
NOISE STUDY THAT’S HAPPENING
OBVIOUSLY CONTINUES AND PROVIDES
THE RESULTS THAT’S GOING TO
DELIVER THE FUNDING TO PUT THE
NOISE WALL UP. UM, IT’S REALLY
WHAT THE GOAL IS. AND THAT OPEN
HOUSES ON TUESDAY, STARTING AT 5
30 IN TROY TROY COMMUNITY CENTER
, AND IF YOU CAN’T MAKE IT IN
PERSON, THEY WILL PUT THAT ON
THE CITY OF TROY’S WEBSITE AFTER
THAT, APRIL 11TH OPEN HOUSE
REPORTING LIVE IN TROY. I’M
MEGAN WOODS, FOUR. WE’RE
LEARNING MORE ABOUT A MASSIVE
FIRE THIS MORNING ON DETROIT’S
WEST SIDE HAPPENED AT A FIVE
STORY APARTMENT BUILDING ON
LASALLE NEAR LINWOOD AND
DAVIDSON, HOSPITALIZING 11
RESIDENTS AND DISPLACING DOZENS
MORE. ONE RESIDENT, A YOUNG
MOTHER OF TWO, IS NOW SUFFERING
A BROKEN BACK AND ANKLE AFTER
FALLING FROM THE FOURTH STORY.
HER CHILDREN WEREN’T HOME AT THE
TIME, STAYING WITH A FAMILY
MEMBER AFTER A MAN WAS SHOT TO
DEATH WEDNESDAY. IN THE SAME
APARTMENT BUILDING. THE DECEASED
BODY IN THERE AND FROM THERE. I
GUESS THIS IS THE RETALIATION
THAT ALL OF US HAD TO SUFFER.
AUTHORITIES ARE CONTINUING TO
INVESTIGATE THE FIRE AND THE
MURDER FOR A POSSIBLE
CONNECTION. NOW LOOKING FOR
UPDATE A FERNDALE MAN FACING
CHARGES FOR SHOOTING AND
STABBING INVOLVING DEPUTIES,
ANDREW HARVEY IS CHARGED WITH
ASSAULT AND RESISTING AND
OBSTRUCTING CAUSING INJURY.
DEPUTIES WERE THERE TO ARREST
HIM AT A HOME ON WEBSTER NEAR
EIGHT MILE AND WOODWARD ON
TUESDAY WHEN HE STABBED ONE OF
THEM IN THE LEG. DEPUTIES FIRED
SHOTS HITTING HARVEY AND IN
FACT, HE’S STILL IN THE HOSPITAL
IN STABLE CONDITION.
NONETHELESS, HE WAS ARRAIGNED
TODAY. A FAMILY SAYS THEY ARE
NOT GOING TO GIVE UP THEIR
SEARCH FOR JUSTICE FOR A BELOVED
BROTHER AND FRIEND WHO WAS
BRUTALLY MURDERED EIGHT YEARS
AGO, 69 YEAR OLD BOBBY ELLIS WAS
SHOT AND KILLED AND HIS BODY
BURNED BEYOND RECOGNITION. THIS
WAS ON DETROIT’S WEST SIDE BACK
IN 2015, TODAY’S FAMILY ONCE
AGAIN PLEADED FOR HELP TO FIND
HIS KILLER. PRIYA MANN JOINS US
LIVE WITH MORE ON THEIR MESSAGE
PRIYA KIM DEVIN, THIS VICTIM WAS
A MILITARY VETERAN TRAINED TO
DEFEND OUR COUNTRY. BUT IN THE
END, HE COULDN’T DEFEND HIMSELF
AGAINST HIS KILLER. NOW HIS
FAMILY IS SPEAKING OUT
CONFIDENCE. SOMEONE KNOWS
SOMETHING. HE IS GONE, BUT HIS
SPIRIT IS HERE MORE THAN SEVEN
YEARS AFTER HE WAS KILLED, THE
FAMILY OF ROBERT ELLIS IS
PLEADING FOR JUSTICE YOUR
INFORMATION AND HELP US TO GET
JUSTICE. WE’RE NO LONGER LOOKING
FOR CLOSURE CLOSURE EXPIRED FIVE
YEARS AGO, AND IT’S GOING ON
EIGHT YEARS SINCE MY BROTHER
WILL BRUTALLY MURDERED BEFORE
CHRISTMAS EVE IN 2015, THEIR
LIVES WERE CHANGED FOREVER. WE
WANTED TO STAND UP FOR BOBBY
ELVIS. TO LET HIM KNOW THAT WE
HAVEN’T GAVE UP THE BODY OF
BOBBY OR BLUE, AS HE WAS KNOWN,
WAS DISCOVERED IN THE 19,000
BLOCK OF ARCH DALE STREET
BETWEEN WEST SEVEN MILE IN
CAMBRIDGE AVENUE ON DETROIT’S
WEST SIDE, CLOSE KNIT
NEIGHBORHOOD SO PEOPLE KNEW
EITHER KNOW WHAT HAPPENED. THE
69 YEAR OLD HAD BEEN SHOT TO
DEATH AND HIS BODY WAS BURNED. A
NEIGHBOR ON ARCH DALE STREET WAS
STARTING HIS CAR WHEN HE SMELLED
SMOKE. AFTER MOVING HIS VEHICLE,
THE NEIGHBOR FOUND THE BODY.
POLICE OVER THE YEARS, THE CASE
WENT COLD. AND THE FAMILY TURNED
TO CRIME STOPPERS FOR HELP. WE
STILL MISS HIM. WE STILL LOVE
HIM, AND YOU CAN REST ASSURED WE
ARE NOT GOING TO GIVE UP AND
COULD JUSTICE HAS BEEN SERVED.
AND THE FAMILY IS REALLY HOPING
SOMEONE WILL DO THE RIGHT THING
AS A REMINDER YOU WILL REMAIN
ANONYMOUS. IF YOU CALL CRIME
STOPPERS AND THAT REWARD MONEY
IS PAID OUT FOR INFORMATION THAT
LEADS TO AN ARREST. NOT A
CONVICTION. THAT NUMBER OF
COURSE, 1 800 SPEAK UP REPORTING
LIVE TONIGHT. I’M PRIYA MANN
LOCAL 4. OKAY PRIYA. THANKS A
MAJOR MICHIGAN NONPROFIT IS
SUING THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION
PUSHING FOR PEOPLE WITH STUDENT
LOANS TO START PAYING THEM
AGAIN. IT’S THE MACKINAW CENTER
FOR PUBLIC POLICY THAT FOUND A
LAWSUIT DEMANDING AND IMMEDIATE
END. TO THE STUDENT LOAN
REPAYMENT MORATORIUM. IT TOOK
EFFECT, OF COURSE DURING COVID
EXTENDED EIGHT TIMES, THE
MACKINAW CENTER ARGUES THAT PUTS
NONPROFITS AT A DISADVANTAGE
BECAUSE THEY USE A FEDERAL DEBT
RELIEF PROGRAM TO HELP RECRUIT
EMPLOYEES AND MATORI MORATORIUM
IS EXPECTED IN THIS SUMMER FOR
THE FIRST TIME IN ABOUT A YEAR.
THE MONTHLY JOBS REPORT CAME IN
LOWER THAN EXPECTED, THE LABOR
DEPARTMENT SAYS U. S EMPLOYERS
ADDED 236,000 JOBS IN MARCH
ECONOMISTS WERE EXPECTING ABOUT
200. 39,000 THE DIP BELOW
EXPECTATIONS COULD BE ASSIGNED.
THE LABOR MARKET IS FINALLY
COOLING OFF. THE FED HAS BEEN
RAISING INTEREST RATES TO LOWER
INFLATION. BUT A ROBUST JOB
MARKET HAS BEEN COMPLICATING
THOSE EFFORTS. IN THE LAST 12
MONTHS, WE’VE SEEN A NET GAIN OF
MORE THAN 4.1 MILLION JOBS. NICE
START TO THE HOLIDAY WEEKEND.
TAKE A LOOK AT THAT SHOT. LIVE
LOOK DOWNTOWN DETROIT THIS GOOD
FRIDAY. YEAH LET’S GET OVER TO
FOREWARN METEOROLOGIST KIM ADAMS
WITH WHAT WE CAN EXPECT FOR THE
REST OF THE HOLIDAY WEEKEND. KIM
BEHIND YOU THERE THAN WE DO THIS
BECAUSE THIS IS NOT
MICHIGANNATIVE, GEORGIA, WHERE
THEY HAVE NOW SUSPENDED THE
SECOND ROUND UNTIL TOMORROW.
THEY HAD SUSPENDED PLAY TWICE
THIS AFTERNOON BECAUSE OF
WEATHER RIGHT NOW, THERE ARE
THUNDERSTORMS BLOWING UP OVER
AUGUSTA TO KIND OF ORIENT YOU
HERE. THERE’S ATLANTA OVER
THERE, AND HERE’S AUGUSTA. THERE
WERE THREE LARGE TREES THAT CAME
DOWN JUST TO THE LEFT OF THE
NUMBER 17 TEA THIS AFTERNOON,
AND THEY DID JUST END UP
SUSPENDING IT UNTIL TOMORROW AND
I WENT BACK AND I LOOKED AT SOME
OF THE HIGHEST WIND. GUSTS OF
WINDS REALLY WEREN’T ALL THAT
IMPRESSIVE, BUT ENOUGH TO TAKE
DOWN THOSE THREE LARGE TREES
RIGHT ON THE COURSE. AUGUSTA
REPORTED A 26 MILE PER HOUR GUST
AND IT LOOKS LIKE THEY’RE JUST
GOING TO HAVE TO PLAY TOMORROW.
WHETHER DOES LOOK BETTER FOR THE
DAY TOMORROW. 44 MILE CLEMENS
BACK AT HOME. WE DON’T HAVE ANY
COMPLAINTS, ALTHOUGH IT IS MAYBE
JUST A LITTLE BIT CHILLY OUT
THERE. IN FACT, PORT HURON ONLY
IN THE UPPER THIRTIES RIGHT NOW,
BUT WE ARE GOING TO WARM UP
NICELY. IF YOU’RE PLANNING YOUR
EASTER SUNDAY, IT WILL BE CHILLY
IN THE MORNING, BUT BY NOON
WE’RE AT 51. IN THE AFTERNOON.
WE CLIMB TO THE UPPER FIFTIES
AND THEN BY EIGHT PM DOWN TO 49
. WE HAVE A BIG WARM UP ON THE
WAY AND YOU’RE GOING TO WANT TO
KNOW ALL ABOUT IT. AND BY
DOWNLOADING THE 4WARN WEATHER
APP. YOU’LL KNOW EXACTLY WHAT’S
GOING TO HAPPEN THIS WEEK IN
YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD. JUST GO TO
YOUR FAVORITE APPS. DOOR AND
TYPE IN WDIV’S ALL RIGHT, KIM.
FEELING THE URGE TO DO A LITTLE
SPRING CLEANING. EXPERTS SAY THE
BENEFITS ARE NOT LIMITED TO YOUR
HOME. SEE HOW ALL THAT SWEEPING
