I from downtown Detroit local 4 News at
5:00 starts now
what happened inside this house is
unimaginable I would fear the defenders
uncovered the chilling confession tapes
showing just how far this man went to
get back at his wife yet another liquor
store breaking could this one be
connected to all the others that we have
seen over the past several months that
Detroit investigators are looking at we
don't know but the damage its extensive
all right Nick but we're gonna begin
with breaking news that we continue to
follow in Port Huron sky 4 live over the
Black River as the Coast Guard and Port
Huron police are searching for two men
believed to have gone into the water we
are told that a man originally went into
the water and didn't come out shortly
after that another man on a pontoon boat
nearby saw what happened and Dovan to
try and save him well so far neither man
has been found Coast Guard says this has
gone now from a search-and-rescue
operation to a recovery effort we've got
a breaking news crew on the way to the
scene and we will have a live report
just as soon as they are able to
establish a signal with us also
developing right now a threat at a
Northville Township shopping center
sparks a total evacuation that went on
for hours
KOCO MacAvoy live at the shopping center
which is on Haggerty at eight mile
Cocco situations like this usually get
cleared up pretty quickly this one on
for a long time yes good afternoon this
police situation went on for hours and
you have to imagine how chaotic that is
because this is a very busy area eight
mile in Haggerty has a number of
different businesses those businesses
were evacuated all because of a
situation here at the Meijer
a rare sight at the busiest intersection
in Northville Township I came over here
and started taking pictures
John Brady found the best spot to
capture the action the bomb squad going
through the car they first opened up the
trunk he zeroed in on the police scene
at Meijer with a concern that a customer
made a bomb threat a 36 year old man
came to the store and threatened
employees
he has criminal convictions social media
Paul's consistent with some of the stuff
that he was articulating in the store
police shut down surrounding streets
I see they black everywhere so we kind
of slow right now because no customers
coming some stores were evacuated they
moved everybody out and now we're here
the Bell tire crew waited across the
street we just rounded everybody up I
have some customers over here - while
they wandering around they kept it
light-hearted though for the first time
a lunch break this long after an
extensive search any units walking
Hagerty or eight mile they reopen the
roadway an all-clear signal to get back
to work but make you sorted the most
part people are safe
that's the work after a chaotic and
memorable afternoon in Northville
Township I think it's exciting I like it
Meijer just reopened about a half hour
ago you can see slowly but surely the
parking lot is filling up again but of
course the good news in all of this
is that no one was injured back to you
Coco other than the verbal threats the
police find anything else that might
have been concerning at all
yes so the Northville township police
department ended up calling the no by
police department and Livonia police
department the Livonia police department
had a bomb sniffing dog that found a
device and that's what really concerned
them but when the Michigan State Police
Department got out here they searched
that vehicle and found that there was no
threat koco kim three former Michigan
State football players are not going to
prison in a sex assault case that rocked
the campus and generated national
headlines
Josh King Donnie Corley and Dmytryk
Vance all learned their fate today and
it came from the same judge who presided
over the Nasr case rod Moloney shows us
how a crucial plea deal brought the case
to an end it was an odd exchange between
Judge Rosemarie Aquilino and former
Michigan State University football
player Josh King and two former
teammates today who stood for their
sentencing in a guilty plea Kings
alleged to have pulled a female co-ed
into an MSU campus apartment bathroom
forcing her to have sex with him in
January of 2017 and then allegedly
passing her around to Corley and Vance
videotaping the scene in his phone King
claimed the video showed it was all
consensual which ultimately led to a
plea deal kink or Leon Vance now former
MSU Spartan football players pled guilty
to seducing an unmarried woman King had
the added charge of surveillance of an
unclothed person despite the exchange
the judge sentenced all three to 36
months to what's called home's youthful
training act probation or HIDA probation
that means if they complete probation
successfully their records get erased
the judge who gained fame in the Larry
Nasr case had this to say to all three
before handing down her sentence
the reaction this is the reaction to
what you have done collectively
now the judge also sentenced the trio to
treatment for sex offenders individual
and group therapy 100 hours of community
service and she also added that they
cannot go on the tinder video dating app
and this is of course bringing an end to
the highly controversial case that still
raised a lot of questions about the
campus culture within the athletic
department at Michigan State University
kemberly back to you yeah and so what
happens at the player or former players
I guess I should say violating their
probation here right right yeah five
years in prison so they are incentivized
to stay on the straight and narrow in
this one for sure
alright thanks right now the new
information tonight is police scour the
city for a group of suspects one in
connection with dozens of smash-and-grab
robberies after at least thirty
break-ins around the city two new
arrests have been made this evening and
police determined three people already
in custody are also connected to the
crime ring right now three men who
police say are involved with the break
ends are on the loose investigators
believe there are likely more that they
don't know about yet in the meantime
Detroit investigators are wondering if
another break-in this morning could be
connected to all of this as Nick
Monacelli reports in this case a truck
was driven through the front door and
yet they got away with nothing good
evening this is one of those situations
where you become more frustrated when
you figure out exactly what happened
because they broke in here through the
front door tried to get behind the
counter busted open this ATM machine
Parsa portions of it still on the floor
down there but they didn't get away with
anything as soon as I turned in to
seeing this I'm like man that's a damn
shame this is I feel bad for the owners
the damage at state liquor on Puritan
was almost a tourist attraction this
morning regulars disappointed that a
break-in targeted their store nobody
deserves this though nobody and I feel
bad for the neighborhood because it
makes the neighborhood look bad this
morning around 4:30 three men came to
the liquor store the driver using this
pickup truck to ram into the security
doors not once not twice
three times security cameras inside show
how much damage there is then you see
just one of the men climb over the pick
up and over the busted gate and or with
a crowbar in hand he tried to pry open
the counter door but couldn't get
anything then he tried busting open the
ATM but didn't get anything and then
tried climbing up the security cage and
couldn't do that either he ran out
empty-handed they gonna make us run away
like we gonna just shut down probably
only randy wadi is the owner here and he
has been paying attention to all of the
break-ins lately i just said my brother
a text message last night and i said you
know i hope they got caught you know and
five hours six hours later I got a phone
call and it happens to me obviously
Detroit investigators taking all this
very seriously if you recognize the man
in this most recent surveillance video
please call investigators or you can
call Crimestoppers that number is
1-800-543-8242 said no we actually have
to be inside but we're just inside the
front door we're at the Meijer in

many of you talking here on our Facebook
page
a woman performing medical procedures on
her porch without a license now you'll
hear from state investigators ok Hank
and it would be very very bad how a
labor dispute happening right now could
bring the United States economy to its
knees

kitty litter box she had told him you're
not my father you don't talk to me like
