SITUATION RIGHT NOW, AND WE WILL
HAVE A LIVE UPDATE ON LOCAL 4
NEWS AT FIVE. YOU’RE ABOUT TO
SEE THE TWO CLUES POLICE ARE
USING TO SEARCH FOR A BANK
ROBBER OVER OVER IN MACOMB
COUNTY. TAKE A LOOK AT THIS NEW
BALTIMORE POLICE SAY THIS IS
JACOB EDWARDS, AND HE IS
CONSIDERED A PERSON OF INTEREST
IN A ROBBERY AT A HUNTINGTON’S
BANK BECOME TOWNSHIP 18 YEAR OLD
IS WANTED FOR QUESTIONING.
POLICE INVESTIGATING A ROBBERY
AT THE HUNTINGTON’S NATIONAL
BANK AND DOWNTOWN NEW BALTIMORE
YESTERDAY. ARE ALSO LOOKING FOR
THIS BROWN OR BRONZE. VOLKSWAGEN
JETTA. THE LICENSE PLATE IS SIX
N Q AND 75. IF YOU CAN HELP,
PLEASE GIVE POLICE A CALL. TODAY
THE HENRY FORD HEALTH SYSTEM
OFFERED A NEW ASSESSMENT OF
COVID 19 HERE IN SOUTHEAST
MICHIGAN. THE BOTTOM LINE IS NOT
GOING AWAY, AND THE LATEST
VARIANT SHOULD BE ON THE RISE
HERE IN THE COMING WEEKS. THIS
VIRUS HAS BEEN UNRELENTING SINCE
IT HIT MICHIGAN. WHAT I THINK IN
MARCH OF 2020 AND CERTAINLY BEEN
SURPRISING US, DR DENNIS
CUNNINGHAM SAYS. RIGHT NOW, THE
NEW VARIANT X B B 1.5 MAKES UP
ABOUT 14% OF THE CASES HERE, HE
SAYS. MICHIGAN IS LAGGING BEHIND
THE CURVE. IRV AND IS LIKELY TO
CATCH UP SOON. THE NEW VARIANT
CAUSES SYMPTOMS LIKE COUGHING,
CONGESTION AND HEADACHES. SO
TESTING YOURSELF REMAINS
CRITICAL BECAUSE IF YOU DO HAVE
PREEXISTING HEALTH CONDITIONS,
THERE ARE TREATMENTS TO MAKE
SURE COVID DOESN’T TURN MORE
DANGEROUS FOR YOU. WHILE MOST
PEOPLE MIGHT GET MILDER CASES,
THE DOCTOR SAYS COVID STILL
STANDS OUT FROM OTHER ILLNESSES
LIKE THE FLU, ESPECIALLY FOR
PEOPLE WITH OTHER HEALTH
CONCERNS. IN AVERAGE, IF YOU
LOOK ACROSS THE COUNTRY, WE HAVE
SEVERAL 100 DEATHS A DAY. WHICH
IS MORE THAN WE TYPICALLY SEE
WITH FLU OR WITH OTHER
RESPIRATORY VIRUS. SO EVEN
THOUGH THE NUMBERS ARE SMALL, IF
YOU’RE IN THAT HIGH RISK GROUP,
FEW 100 BUCKS A DAY BECOMES
PRETTY SIGNIFICANT, SAYS HE’S A
BIG FAN OF VACCINES, ESPECIALLY
THE NEWER BY VALENT VERSION
THAT’S MORE EFFECTIVE AGAINST
THE NEWER VARIANTS. IT’S NOW
APPROVED FOR PEOPLE AS YOUNG AS
SIX MONTHS OLD. WE ARE LEARNING
ABOUT SOME NEW EVIDENCE IN THE
CASE OF A HUSBAND NOW CHARGED
WITH HIS MISSING WIFE’S MURDER.
THE CASE IN MASSACHUSETTS HAS
BEEN GETTING NATIONAL ATTENTION
. PROSECUTORS SHARED NEW DETAILS
IN COURT TODAY. DEVIN SCILLIAN
FOLLOWING THE VERY LATEST FOR US
FROM THE NEWSROOM, DEVIN TODAY,
PROSECUTORS LAID OUT A GRUESOME
SCENARIO THAT CLAIMS BRIAN WALSH
SHE DIDN’T WANT TO DIVORCE HIS
WIFE. SO WE KILLED HER,
DISMEMBERED HER BODY AND THEN
DISCARDED HER REMAINS WHILE SHE
WAS IN COURT THIS MORNING, NOT
GUILTY PLEAS WERE ENTERED IN HIS
BEHALF. THIS WAS THE FIRST TIME
PROSECUTORS PUBLICLY SAID,
THOUGH THEY BELIEVE HE MURDERED
HIS WIFE, ANA, WHO VANISHED
AROUND NEW YEAR’S DAY.
INVESTIGATORS SAY WELL, SHE WENT
ONLINE TO LOOK FOR WAYS TO GET
RID OF A BODY AND ITEMS
BELONGING TO HIS WIFE WITH HER
DNA ON THEM OR ON WERE FOUND IN
A TRASH PROCESSING FACILITY. SO
FAR ON WALSH’S BODY HAS NOT BEEN
FOUND HER, HUH? HUSBAND WAS
PREVIOUSLY ARRESTED ON A CHARGE
OF LYING TO INVESTIGATORS. SO
NOW HE’S CHARGED WITH MURDER.
AND BEING HELD WITHOUT BOND. HIS
DEFENSE ATTORNEY SAYS SHE WILL
NOT COMMENT ON SPECIFICS OF THE
CASE, BUT SUGGESTS THAT THE
EVIDENCE IS NOT STRONG BEFORE
TODAY’S ARRAIGNMENT ON A WALL.
SHE’S MOTHER SAID SHE DID NOT
BELIEVE HER SON IN LAW HARMED
HER DAUGHTER. SHE WAS HOPING HER
DAUGHTER MIGHT BE ALIVE AND WELL
SOMEWHERE, COUPLES. THREE
CHILDREN ARE IN STATE CUSTODY
RIGHT NOW. THEIR FATHER WILL BE
BACK IN COURT. FEBRUARY 9TH
KAREN BACK TO YOU. WHAT A CASE!
ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU, DEVIN.
PRESIDENT BIDEN IS NOT TALKING
ABOUT THE QUESTIONS KEEP COMING
ABOUT HIS HANDLING OF THOSE
CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS. THE
PRESIDENT ADDRESSED THE SCANDAL
LAST WEEK, SAYING HE TAKES THE
ISSUE VERY SERIOUSLY. BUT HE’S
DEFLECTED QUESTIONS EVER SINCE
DOCUMENTS WERE RECENTLY FOUND AT
HIS DELAWARE HOME AND IN AN
OFFICE BUILDING IN DC BACK IN
NOVEMBER, ONE OF THE BIGGEST
QUESTIONS, WHY WASN’T THAT
DISCOVERY MADE PUBLIC? BEFORE
THE MIDTERM ELECTIONS. THE
DOCUMENTS ARE NOW THE FOCUS OF A
SPECIAL COUNSEL INVESTIGATION
THAT STARTED LAST WEEK. THE
WHITE HOUSE’S ACCUSING
REPUBLICANS OF FAKING OUTRAGE
AFTER THEY SEEM LESS CONCERNED
ABOUT DOCUMENTS FOUND IN FORMER
PRESIDENT TRUMP’S FLORIDA HOME.
HE’S ALSO UNDER INVESTIGATION BY
ANOTHER SPECIAL COUNSEL. ONE OF
THE LEADERS TRYING TO GUIDE THE
U. S ECONOMY HAS TESTED POSITIVE
FOR COVID 19. WE’RE TALKING
ABOUT FEDERAL RESERVE BOARD
CHAIR JEROME POWELL. YOU’RE
LOOKING AT FILE VIDEO OF A
PREVIOUS PUBLIC APPEARANCE RIGHT
NOW, POWELL IS ISOLATING AT HOME
AND WORKING, REMOTELY TOLD HIS
SYMPTOMS ARE MILD AND THE 69
YEAR OLD IS UP TO DATE ON HIS
COVID VACCINATIONS AND BOOSTERS.
THAT’S NEXT BIG MEETING ON
INTEREST RATES IS SET FOR THE
END OF THE MONTH. STOP
THANKSGIVING, BUT THIS TURKEY IS
BECOMING THE TALK OF THE TOWN
OVER PLYMOUTH THAT’S SHOWING UP
AT A REALLY BUSY INTERSECTION,
LITERALLY STOPPING TRAFFIC
DRIVERS CAN GET A LITTLE
FRUSTRATED, BUT PEOPLE ARE ALSO
WORRIED SOMETHING BAD MIGHT
HAPPEN TO THE BIRD. MEGAN WOODS
SPOKE TO AN EXPERT ABOUT WHAT
MIGHT FINALLY CONVINCED THE
TURKEY TO STOP VISITING. WE’RE
HERE ON AN ARBOR ROAD AND NAME
STREET WHERE DRIVERS BUSINESSES
, PEDESTRIANS ARE SAYING THEY
SEE THAT WILD TURKEY REGULARLY
CROSSING THIS STREET ABOUT TWICE
A WEEK. WE HERE? THE PEOPLE ARE
HONKING HORNS AND STUFF. WE KNOW
THAT TURKEY IS CROSSING THE
ROAD. WE SAW IT FOR OURSELVES
THIS AFTERNOON. AT THIS POINT
THIS TURKEY, CITING HAS BECOME
THE NORM FOR J SNAIL WHO WORKS
AT THIS AUTO SHOP AT THE CORNER
ACROSS THE ROAD ALMOST EVERY DAY
, GOING BACK AND FORTH VERY
SLOWLY LIKE HE OWNS THE ROAD.
SOMETIMES THE TURKEY JUST STANDS
THERE. IT’S BOTH FRUSTRATING IN
HILARIOUS FOR DRIVERS LIKE SUE
STEEL ROLLED DOWN MY WINDOW AND
I HAD A NAPKIN OR SOMETHING IN
MY FRONT SEAT. I STARTED WAITING
HAPPENED. TURKEY I WAS TRYING TO
GET HIS ATTENTION. HE NEVER PAID
ATTENTION TO ME. HE JUST STOOD
THERE. HE DIDN’T MOVE. HE DIDN’T
DO A THING. A COUPLE OF WEEKS
LATER, IF IT ISN’T THAT TURKEY
AGAIN, I SAID IN MY SEEING
THINGS EACH TIME SHE CAN’T HELP
BUT TO THINK SOMEBODY’S GOING TO
KILL THIS POOR GUY. BUT HE’S
HE’S EVIDENTLY ACCUSTOMED TO
COMING. DON’T ANNA OVERRODE
PEOPLE HAVE REACHED OUT TO THE
MICHIGAN DE’VEON ER TO CATCH
THIS TURKEY AND RELOCATED, BUT
WILDLIFE BIOLOGIST ZACH COOLEY
SAYS IT’S NOT AS EASY AS IT
SOUNDS. PEOPLE SAY THAT THEY
COULD BEAT THEM. THEY GET CLOSE
TO THEM, AND YOU CAN, YOU CAN
GET FAIRLY CLOSE TO THEM. BUT
CLOSE ENOUGH TO TRY TO CAPTURE
THEM AND RELOCATE THEM IS VERY
DIFFICULT AND WE HAVEN’T HAD
REALLY ANY SUCCESS WITH IT.
YOU’RE RECENTLY ACROSS THE STATE
THEY HAVE TRAPPED WHILE TURKEY’S
BUT THAT IS AN INTENSE PROCESS
THAT MAY NOT WORK. IN THIS CASE
. WE USE ROCKET NETS MOST OF
TIME, WHICH IS AN EXPLOSIVE THE
OUT AND THAT THOSE ARE THINGS
THAT YOU JUST CAN’T DO IN THE IN
THE CITY. SO OUR OPTIONS TO DEAL
WITH SITUATIONS LIKE THIS ARE
ARE VERY LIMITED. THERE IS
SOMETHING PEOPLE IN THIS AREA
CAN DO. AND THAT IS STOP FEEDING
THIS TURKEY AND ANY OTHER URBAN
WILDLIFE. MICHIGAN DNR’S SAYS
THIS URBAN WILDLIFE IS SUPPOSED
TO BE AFRAID OF PEOPLE, AND WHEN
YOU FEED THEM, THEY RETURN TO
THAT AREA, AND THAT’S PRETTY
MUCH WHAT WE’RE SEEING IN THIS
SITUATION IN WAYNE COUNTY. I’M
MEGAN WOODS. LOCAL 4. ALL RIGHT.
THANK YOU, MEGAN, WHILE THE D N
R IS LIMITED ON WHAT THEY CAN
