Speaker 1: Good morning, Kentucky, Anda, and welcome in Kentucky. Anda is
Speaker 1: Morning News with Nick Coffee here on News Radio eight
Speaker 1: forty whas we've got the full crew here and we've
Speaker 1: got a lot to get into. This is this is
Speaker 1: the third week therefore, this is my third Monday on
Speaker 1: the job here, and uh, i'd say this is as
Speaker 1: busy as we've been to start the week in my
Speaker 1: early tenure here. Certainly a lot to react to and
Speaker 1: a lot to share with you, and we'll keep you
Speaker 1: keep you informed as best we can from now until
Speaker 1: we hand it off to Tony and Dwight coming up
Speaker 1: at nine o'clock, which is four hours away. So strap in.
Speaker 1: It is five oh six. We are four minutes away
Speaker 1: from your first traffic update. Within the show. Also we
Speaker 1: get an update on weather and also a lot to
Speaker 1: get to when it comes to sports today, as Louisville Baseball,
Speaker 1: they've they've managed to survive another day. We can certainly
Speaker 1: talk about that. I feel as if my pacers, I
Speaker 1: feel like they might have let that series slip through
Speaker 1: their hands on Friday night. I hope I'm wrong, but
Speaker 1: that felt substantial. But I say we started just addressing
Speaker 1: the big story from Friday evening Saturday morning, I suppose,
Speaker 1: and that is where we have another tragic situation here
Speaker 1: in America where a gunman is accused of killing a
Speaker 1: Minnesota representative. And I guess this is actually news probably
Speaker 1: for those that might have called it an early night yesterday,
Speaker 1: because this happened late Sunday evening. They did, in fact
Speaker 1: arrest this suspect, Vance Bolter, was captured last night near
Speaker 1: his farm in green Isle, Minnesota, and huge search of
Speaker 1: course that took place over the entire weekend because of
Speaker 1: the two separate shootings that left one Minnesota lawmaker dead
Speaker 1: another badly hurt, and they were able to pick up
Speaker 1: I guess a motion triggered trail camera that was spotted
Speaker 1: near his property and officers were able to close in
Speaker 1: on him, and he's charged with killing State Representative Melissa Hortman,
Speaker 1: her husband Mark, and also another violent attack that has
Speaker 1: not taken the lives of these two individuals, but State
Speaker 1: Senator John Hoffman in it wife Yvett, were wounded. So obviously,
Speaker 1: well we'll give you the latest on that as best
Speaker 1: we can. Rory O'Neil's going to join us at about
Speaker 1: five forty five we'll see what he can tell us.
Speaker 1: As far as motive, I think there's there's certainly some
Speaker 1: noise out there. As far as what might have led someone, well,
Speaker 1: there's really no way to there's no way to explain
Speaker 1: in any way rational as to why you would do
Speaker 1: something just so heinous like this. But I guess we'll
Speaker 1: let you know what was going on upstairs as best
Speaker 1: we know with this person who committed you know, such
Speaker 1: a such a heinous act. So again we'll talk about
Speaker 1: that coming up here with Rory O'Neil about five forty five,
Speaker 1: also here in Louisville. I did my best to look
Speaker 1: around elsewhere to see just visually as far as a comparison,
Speaker 1: but an estimated of about four thousand people were in
Speaker 1: downtown Louisville on Saturday for the No Kings protests, and
Speaker 1: the visual made it look as if it was just
Speaker 1: like something we've never seen before. And I guess it
Speaker 1: really just depends on view and whatnot. Other cities, of course,
Speaker 1: had big turnouts as well, But regardless, I guess if
Speaker 1: what you feel about these protests or what you think,
Speaker 1: maybe you agree with those that are out there expressing
Speaker 1: what they want to express or maybe you strongly disagree.
Speaker 1: Can we all agree though, that it's good to know
Speaker 1: that no arrests were made and it was with that,
Speaker 1: I feel like it was clearly peaceful. And I mean,
Speaker 1: when you have nobody actually arrested, no crime committed throughout
Speaker 1: this thing as far as law enforcement's concerned, that's a positive, right.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's I guess, you know, dare I
Speaker 1: say best case scenario? I mean, I'll admit maybe I
Speaker 1: shouldn't say this. Maybe this is just you know, me
Speaker 1: being a pessimist here, But Scott, would you have been
Speaker 1: shocked if we come in today reacting to the weekends
Speaker 1: protests and there would have been arrests? I could well,
Speaker 1: I just assume there would be at least a few,
Speaker 1: just because the nature of what typically happens when. And
Speaker 1: that's not to say that everybody out there's going to
Speaker 1: be causing ruckus and wanting to do it unpeacefully, but
Speaker 1: I feel like that's a win win absolutely.
Speaker 2: I was scrolling social media yesterday morning over my coffee
Speaker 2: and some of our own station social media, getting a
Speaker 2: vibe on what people were saying. I saw some very
Speaker 2: disturbing posts and I'll tell you off the air one
Speaker 2: that I saw, and I don't think it was on
Speaker 2: I don't think it was on our station page. It
Speaker 2: was someone I saw who had friended me a long, long, long,
Speaker 2: long time ago. I don't even know him personally, but from.
Speaker 1: What I started second, I thought you were talking about
Speaker 1: somebody we worked with them. No, no, no, no.
Speaker 2: I was just trying to get a vibe on how
Speaker 2: people felt about this, and it seemed fifty to fifty
Speaker 2: down the road. But after reading some of what I
Speaker 2: read to your point, I hands down thought we'd see
Speaker 2: some arrests. Yeah, and I think you know, I've tipped
Speaker 2: my hat to the city. This is outstanding. You know,
Speaker 2: LNPD was all hands on deck. You know, the dads
Speaker 2: that were on hands on deck on Father's Day had
Speaker 2: to work. I'm sure they had plans, oh Father's Day.
Speaker 2: They had to work. But everybody maintained and everybody kept
Speaker 2: their own And that seems to be what's happening around
Speaker 2: the nation. But the protests are growing, as we talked
Speaker 2: about on this show, and they will continue to grow.
Speaker 2: And that's just everybody's right here in America to express
Speaker 2: their displeasure with what they see and if you go
Speaker 2: back to the beginnings of America, that's how we got
Speaker 2: this whole thing started.
Speaker 1: And by the way, speaking of the protest, it's those
Speaker 1: that are against ICE. Obviously they are not on board
Speaker 1: with Donald Trump's plan for immigration. There's actually been something
Speaker 1: that's changed over the weekend as far as I guess,
Speaker 1: the instructions that ICE has and we'll talk about that
Speaker 1: in just a few minutes. Your next update of traffic
Speaker 1: and weather is coming up right here, right now. It
Speaker 1: is five to eleven on News Radio eight forty whas.
Speaker 1: That's right, it is a Monday here at news Radio
Speaker 1: eight forty whas Kentucky and his Morning News with Nick Coffee,
Speaker 1: and we've got your first news update coming up in
Speaker 1: about let's say, five seconds away from fourteen minutes away.
Speaker 1: And I'll ask this to the young Joe Lincoln next
Speaker 1: time I pop out in the hallway, and I hope
Speaker 1: he'll give me an honest answer. I used to do
Speaker 1: this whenever I was on sports on the mornings from
Speaker 1: seven to ten, when I thought that was early. This
Speaker 1: is this is actually early. That wasn't really that early.
Speaker 1: But whenever we would have someone have to come in
Speaker 1: and fill in as the producer because of I don't know,
Speaker 1: the last minute calling, sick, things happen or whatever. When
Speaker 1: you get that call that you have to get up
Speaker 1: really early and you're not expecting it, like I just
Speaker 1: I want I want to I want to live in
Speaker 1: a world where we're all honest with each other. Like
Speaker 1: you can tell us, Joe Lincoln, if you are currently
Speaker 1: resenting us because you got a call last night at
Speaker 1: eleven o'clock in the morning being asked if you could
Speaker 1: come in and work the shift that starts at five am.
Speaker 1: In fact, he's here long before five am to get
Speaker 1: things ready. So Joe Lincoln, Uh, it's my first time
Speaker 1: working with him, and it's an honor because he's he's
Speaker 1: a true pro. But if he does feel a little
Speaker 1: resentment towards us because he wasn't expecting to be waking
Speaker 1: up as early as he did today, I totally get it.
Speaker 1: It's one thing if you know, it's the thing if
Speaker 1: you just find out. Okay, now, I guess I'll go
Speaker 1: ahead and try to force myself to go to bed
Speaker 1: because I got to be up in a few hours.
Speaker 2: Well, what used to happen when I worked this show,
Speaker 2: And like Dave Jennings was producing, or Tony and Dwight,
Speaker 2: or at the time, Mandy Connell and Dave would be
Speaker 2: you get that call he's like stuck in traffic and
Speaker 2: he's not getting here anytime soon, or he's sick, and
Speaker 2: Mandy said it best she goes you feel like that
Speaker 2: kid that actually has to stay after that got called
Speaker 2: into detention afterwards, and you got to stick around.
Speaker 1: Sure, yeah, places to be.
Speaker 2: So I wonder if Joe feels.
Speaker 1: Out he thought you were. You thought you'd clocked out,
Speaker 1: You thought the bell rang for the day, and then
Speaker 1: you got to stay after or you know, clean the
Speaker 1: chalkboard or something.
Speaker 2: When you know you're supposed to punch out at a
Speaker 2: certain time and the boss comes up to and goes, hey,
Speaker 2: by the way, can we get this done real quick
Speaker 2: before you leave, And you know there's no way you're
Speaker 2: getting that done before you leave.
Speaker 3: Yep.
Speaker 1: So John Shannon, I believe he's a little bit under
Speaker 1: the weather. Hopefully he feels better, but look it's okay.
Speaker 1: We go to the bullpen, we bring in Joe Lincoln
Speaker 1: and we're we're in good shape. So he'll have his
Speaker 1: first news update coming for you guys. At around five thirty.
Speaker 1: So here's the latest on the the ice raids that
Speaker 1: are going on across the country. So the ICE agents
Speaker 1: has been ordered to stop making immigration rests at farms,
Speaker 1: restaurants and hotels mid worries. The crackdown is squeezing industries
Speaker 1: that rely heavily on migrant labor. So this is not
Speaker 1: really surprising because that makes sense. However, I think when
Speaker 1: you're doing something like ice raids and deporting people who
Speaker 1: are here illegally, that don't you need to be consistent,
Speaker 1: Like doesn't it need to be really regardless of what
Speaker 1: it is in fact you are doing. I mean, again,
Speaker 1: I'm not advocating that they just throw everybody out at
Speaker 1: one time, regardless and ask no questions. That's not all
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. But you know, I think before any
Speaker 1: of this started, weren't we all aware that, you know,
Speaker 1: we have industries like farms, restaurants and hotels that do,
Speaker 1: in fact rely heavily on migrant labor. So that's I
Speaker 1: suppose that's great news for a lot of folks that
Speaker 1: are very much against this in every way, and maybe
Speaker 1: you know, it's one of those things that you really
Speaker 1: you don't until you've been in certain positions, you don't
Speaker 1: really you can't relate. But if you had somebody that
Speaker 1: you worked with that you maybe knew or thought was
Speaker 1: here illegally, that works in one of those industries, and
Speaker 1: you know, I'm sure there's there's probably sweating bullets, to
Speaker 1: be honest with you. So that with that being such
Speaker 1: a big talking point in the last really the last
Speaker 1: week or so, it's really really ramped up as far
Speaker 1: as just the protest going on across the country because
Speaker 1: again there are many that are against what ICE has
Speaker 1: been tasked to do, which is to get people out
Speaker 1: of this country that are here illegally. But again, that
Speaker 1: is that's from over the weekend and I don't think
Speaker 1: it got lost in the news by any means, but
Speaker 1: there's certainly a lot going on to where maybe you
Speaker 1: weren't aware of that, but that was something that came down,
Speaker 1: I believe, on Friday evening that ICE has been ordered
Speaker 1: to stop making immigration rests at farms, restaurants and hotels.
Speaker 1: So that, again, I think that's rather substantial given the
Speaker 1: whole given what's going on the last the last week
Speaker 1: or so. All right, real quick, Scott, you said something
Speaker 1: a moment ago, and it reminded me of what I
Speaker 1: talked to John about right before the show started, because
Speaker 1: you mentioned something that you saw a post on social
Speaker 1: media rather than Facebook or whatnot, and when I was
Speaker 1: and I hate to keep tracking it back to my
Speaker 1: days in sports, but with social media being what it
Speaker 1: is now, you really need to make sure when you
Speaker 1: see a post that it is legitimately coming from the
Speaker 1: source that it is that it appears to be right.
Speaker 1: Like you can easily change your avatar picture on social media,
Speaker 1: you can change your name, and because now the blue
Speaker 1: check system on x is simply a subscription and not
Speaker 1: a verification, you can easily just be duped. So in
Speaker 1: sports like that happens, and it's like kind of a
Speaker 1: kind of a rib like haha, you got got. But
Speaker 1: I've now learned in the last couple of weeks that
Speaker 1: when it comes to you know, you know, news, politics,
Speaker 1: that kind of stuff, it's more rampant than ever as
Speaker 1: far as just things that appeal like it seems like
Speaker 1: it's legit, but I don't know should I believe it?
Speaker 1: Like I've never been more all right, I gotta I
Speaker 1: gotta vet this, not like I'm doing investigator reporting on
Speaker 1: my end, but like I gotta check and make sure
Speaker 1: this is actually a real thing, because it's like it's
Speaker 1: own world within social media to just completely put up
Speaker 1: out fake stuff. It's like it's its own niche. Now
Speaker 1: it's crazy, So you got to be careful, all right.
Speaker 1: Another update of trafficking weather coming your way. In a
Speaker 1: first update of sports with Scott right here on news
Speaker 1: RADIOA forty whs. Thank you Joe. It is five to
Speaker 1: thirty five here Kinsucky had his morning news with Nick
Speaker 1: Coffee on news Radio eight forty whas. Getting the week
Speaker 1: started here on a Monday. Hopefully you guys had a
Speaker 1: good weekend. Guys and gals, I should say, I think
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, But hey, guys, gals, whatever
Speaker 1: in between. Hopefully you enjoyed yourself this weekend. Hopefully everybody
Speaker 1: had a good Father's Day. It was it was muggy.
Speaker 1: I'm sticky outside man. Had a good time at the
Speaker 1: at Churchill Downs yesterday. We did win a couple of races,
Speaker 1: well my son did. I just went out, had a
Speaker 1: good time, had a few beers and let the kids
Speaker 1: pick horses. I didn't I would have just been donating
Speaker 1: more money to Churchill Downs. I've already donated enough to
Speaker 1: them over the years, so we ended up probably leaving
Speaker 1: with maybe I don't know, five bucks ahead because my
Speaker 1: son has a gift. I don't know where he gets it.
Speaker 1: Certainly doesn't get it for me. But he's pretty good
Speaker 1: at picking horse good. It's really just luck. He just
Speaker 1: looks at the either sees one that's about to, you know,
Speaker 1: get in its post, or one that's you know, nearing
Speaker 1: the track before they get long before they actually get
Speaker 1: in the post. Or he'll just look at the program
Speaker 1: and point his finger and say he wants that one.
Speaker 1: And that's that's as effective, in fact, it's more effective
Speaker 1: than if I try to actually look at what's out
Speaker 1: there and make a wager myself.
Speaker 2: Do you do well in bracketology? Do you do well there?
Speaker 1: I really in the last few years have not emphasized
Speaker 1: brackets much, just because I'm so much into betting on
Speaker 1: the games, right, But I do pretty well in brackets.
Speaker 1: When it comes to the very late in the late
Speaker 1: like lead eight, final four, I'm usually pretty pretty sharp. However,
Speaker 1: when it comes to the first round, second round, even
Speaker 1: sweet sixteen, at times I can't predict the upsets meeting
Speaker 1: the ones that do happen, and there's oftentimes upsets that
Speaker 1: I suspect will happen and they don't, So I'm not
Speaker 1: great at it. Again. It's just it's fun. It's entertainment.
Speaker 1: But when I win, when it comes to sports beat,
Speaker 1: which does happen from time to time, I just remind
Speaker 1: myself quickly it's luck. Because the second you start thinking
Speaker 1: you've got you've got an edge, you've got one over
Speaker 1: on the books. That's that's where maybe it gets a
Speaker 1: little bit out of hand for some folks. But yeah,
Speaker 1: it was. It was. It was a good Sunday. Do
Speaker 1: you you have a good Sunday yourself?
Speaker 2: Outstanding, dude. I'm staying great weekend. Sun couldn't come home
Speaker 2: this weekend, but he's coming home next weekend. He was
Speaker 2: working the Savannah Banana's game at Great American Ballpark.
Speaker 1: But that was awesome, dude.
Speaker 2: He said, that is off the chain. You know, they
Speaker 2: said the record they one hundred and forty eight thousand
Speaker 2: in Carolina.
Speaker 1: They they you know, I'm this is this is not
Speaker 1: in any way a factor a stat but like if
Speaker 1: somebody told me put it this way, if somebody told
Speaker 1: me the only thing that is close to uh reaching
Speaker 1: the crowd you see at at Taylor Swift concert was
Speaker 1: the Savannah Bananas. I believe it. Yeah, I mean follow
Speaker 1: their CEO on TikTok.
Speaker 2: Dude, he is umer motivational because everyone in under the
Speaker 2: Sun told him this is.
Speaker 1: They do a great job of making it relatable like
Speaker 1: like he see like you can tell, well, he's somebody
Speaker 1: that had an idea. He's pretty down to earth and
Speaker 1: now it's the biggest thing going it is. How about John,
Speaker 1: how about you? That was your first Father's Day.
Speaker 4: It was a very enjoyable, like you said earlier, muggy
Speaker 4: father's day. But it's nice to be, you know, honored
Speaker 4: as a dad. Even though yeah time a few months now,
Speaker 4: I had a good day.
Speaker 1: Good and and John told me before we started the
Speaker 1: show that he's feeling good as far as rest and outlook.
Speaker 1: I get motivated on a Monday when I hear that
Speaker 1: John Alden's coming in well rested, ready to go, because
Speaker 1: you know, being a new dad with a newborn baby
Speaker 1: at home, you just never know when you're gonna get
Speaker 1: those days. So we need to we need we need
Speaker 1: to take advantage of getting energized John Alden.
Speaker 4: With, Hey, we've adjusted the sleeping slash feeding schedule for
Speaker 4: the baby, so I'm hoping this is more than just
Speaker 4: a one day thing. I'm going pretty good today.
Speaker 2: So John, how does that change? Your wife is a teacher,
Speaker 2: So how does that change for you all? Have you
Speaker 2: talked about it when she goes back to school?
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, in terms of the feeding, I'm not too sure.
Speaker 4: But whenever she whenever she goes back in early to
Speaker 4: mid August, she's going to wake up with the baby,
Speaker 4: whenever she would normally get up, She'll take the baby too,
Speaker 4: will be my in laws, and then I'll pick up
Speaker 4: the baby whenever I get off here at twelve o'clock. Wow, well,
Speaker 4: my system.
Speaker 1: I think this goes for just about everything in life,
Speaker 1: but certainly parenting a newborn baby. Schedule, routine, structure, keeping
Speaker 1: keeping things in line, that can go a long way.
Speaker 1: And you really, well, just from my experience, we really didn't.
Speaker 1: We didn't realize that as parents of a newborn baby
Speaker 1: until we, without really trying, had developed into a pretty
Speaker 1: consistent routine. And then when things were off of the routine,
Speaker 1: our baby who's now not a baby anymore, she's older,
Speaker 1: she's nine. She let us know that she wasn't feeling it.
Speaker 1: Let's go back to the you know, she needs to
Speaker 1: be on schedule, routine, that kind of stuff. So good stuff,
Speaker 1: Happy Father's Day, everybody belated, of course, hopefully the weekend
Speaker 1: was good to you and Father's Day was good as well.
Speaker 1: All Right, we've got an update of traffic and weather
Speaker 1: coming your way. Also, we'll talk with Rory O'Neil of
Speaker 1: NBC News and get the latest on the assassination that
Speaker 1: took place over the weekend of a Minnesota state representative.
Speaker 1: And also we've got another sports of it coming your
Speaker 1: way in the next fifteen minutes. So stick around right here.
Speaker 1: It's five forty a Kentucky, and it's Morning News on
Speaker 1: news Radio eight forty whas. It is five forty five here,
Speaker 1: Kentucky in its Morning News with Nick Coffee on News
Speaker 1: Radio eight forty whas. Let's bring in Rory O'Neal of
Speaker 1: NBC News. Rory, obviously, a tragic situation over the weekend
Speaker 1: that took place in Minnesota. Before we get into potential motive,
Speaker 1: and I guess moving forward, what's to be expected, Let's
Speaker 1: back up to the start of this entire situation. So
Speaker 1: the suspect who has now since been captured, tell me
Speaker 1: what you know as far as him showing up appearing
Speaker 1: to be a legitimate law enforcement officer, not only with
Speaker 1: uniform but with a vehicle.
Speaker 3: Is that?
Speaker 1: What do we know about that?
Speaker 3: Right? We know that this suspect, this fifty seven year old,
Speaker 3: was apparently trying to start a security company and that
Speaker 3: maybe as part of that he had these uniforms. He
Speaker 3: had the Ford SUV that looked like a police car,
Speaker 3: even equipped with the police lights. Apparently he went to
Speaker 3: the home of the state senator and his wife shot
Speaker 3: them both, then drove about ten miles to a second
Speaker 3: home that belonged to the former Speaker of the house
Speaker 3: to still a state representative, and her husband shot and
Speaker 3: killed both of them, and then there was a confrontation
Speaker 3: with police, but it was able to run from the scene.
Speaker 3: Not exactly sure though how what other vehicle he picked
Speaker 3: up or bicycle or what it may have been. But
Speaker 3: then he was ultimately captured after a two day manhunt
Speaker 3: last night.
Speaker 1: So the reports are that the motive is due to
Speaker 1: those the support for abortion rights. Is that accurate.
Speaker 3: That maybe one of them. You know, we're not I
Speaker 3: don't think we're definitively there yet. He did have there
Speaker 3: calling it a manifesto, but we know that he had
Speaker 3: strong anti abortion use. But you know, even his friends,
Speaker 3: he had two homes, one with a wife and then
Speaker 3: the other he would stay with friends that was closer
Speaker 3: to the city where he rented a room. They said,
Speaker 3: even his lifelong friends had He was never very political,
Speaker 3: that this wasn't really central to him until a recent
Speaker 3: trip to Africa where he was again trying to start
Speaker 3: up a security business that wasn't really going anywhere. So yeah,
Speaker 3: still a lot of mystery surrounding this man.
Speaker 1: So when it comes to the impact there in Minnesota,
Speaker 1: obviously there were a lot of protests planned, but it
Speaker 1: turned out to where because there was a man hunt
Speaker 1: going on going on for someone who just committed an
Speaker 1: act like this. I mean, I think a lot of
Speaker 1: was probably planned was not able to happen due to
Speaker 1: this right.
Speaker 3: Right in that state. They did ask people not to
Speaker 3: take part in no King's parades and rallies and things
Speaker 3: like that in Minnesota probably would have would have staged
Speaker 3: some of the largest ones, but it Yeah, they asked
Speaker 3: people to stay inside. Instead, many were told stay inside
Speaker 3: and essentially be on lockdown. They had to put out
Speaker 3: the directives saying that officers would only be working in
Speaker 3: pairs because they figured this man, who we now think
Speaker 3: was a lone wolf, they were afraid he'd go to
Speaker 3: more houses and perhaps perhaps attack more people. You know,
Speaker 3: they found what three AK forty seven style assault rifles
Speaker 3: in the police car, the police suv, the police looking
Speaker 3: suv that he had, I should say, plus some other
Speaker 3: weapons as well. So a lot of background checking is
Speaker 3: being done as they try to figure out, you know,
Speaker 3: exactly what was the motivation here. Not sure if he's
Speaker 3: talking to police yet. They haven't said. So let's see
Speaker 3: if maybe he will cooperate with these investigators knowing that
Speaker 3: he really has nothing to lose at this point.
Speaker 1: That was actually gonna be a next question is do
Speaker 1: they expect him And I guess we'll find out sooner
Speaker 1: or later as far as will he cooperate and talk.
Speaker 1: But what do we know about a hit list or
Speaker 1: multiple hit lists? It sounds as if there was something
Speaker 1: discovered that me look like a hit list or be
Speaker 1: a hitlist. Do we know much about that just yet?
Speaker 3: Yeah, they said it was multiple pages, a list of
Speaker 3: a lot of names. They included a state senator Tina Smith,
Speaker 3: or rather US editor Tina Smith abortion rights advocates. That's
Speaker 3: according to a Democratic lawmaker from there at least eleven
Speaker 3: Democratic legislators from Wisconsin as well. And really names are
Speaker 3: from across the Midwest, including Michigan, Illinois, and Iowa.
Speaker 1: So and they hate to put you on the spot
Speaker 1: because I don't know if you would know this at all,
Speaker 1: but he was captured last night. Initially there was a
Speaker 1: fifty thousand dollars reward. Do we know if this was
Speaker 1: just strictly law enforcement, the FBI doing their party, Did
Speaker 1: they get a tip? Do we know it all? It's
Speaker 1: probably not known at this point. It didn't seem as
Speaker 1: if they were relying on a certain tip. It seems
Speaker 1: as if they just were able to track him it
Speaker 1: property he owned.
Speaker 3: Well what they found his car abandoned about fifty miles
Speaker 3: outside of Minneapolis to the south, and it was in
Speaker 3: an area that then set up a perimeter. And then
Speaker 3: a tip came in from someone who has one of
Speaker 3: those trail camera, yes trail and apparently his image got
Speaker 3: picked up on that trail cam and it was the
Speaker 3: owner of that trail cam who called the cops and said, hey,
Speaker 3: God just went by at this location. So then they
Speaker 3: set up a perimeter, used drones and helicopters with thermal
Speaker 3: imaging to try to hone in on them, zero in
Speaker 3: on them, and they did, and they talked them essentially
Speaker 3: into surrendering. No shots were fired, no police were injured.
