AND THEY SAY ONE OF THOSE VICTIMS IS A DEPUTY WHO WAS OFF DUTY WHEN THIS SHOOTING HAPPENED. WESH 2 NEWS TONY ATKINS JOINS US LIVE THIS MORNING. TONY INVESTIGATORS SAY MORE PEOPLE COULD HAVE BEEN HURT. YEAH, CHRISTINA, THEY SAY THIS HAPPENED AFTER A CLUB LET OUT AROUND 2:00 IN THE MORNING ON SUNDAY AND IT WAS ABOUT 100 PEOPLE IN THAT PARKING LOT. SO THINGS COULD HAVE BEEN MUCH WORSE. BUT FORTUNATELY, THEY WEREN’T. I WANT YOU TO TAKE A LOOK AT THESE PICTURES. YOU CAN SEE THE BULLET HOLES WHICH HIT SOME BUSINESSES NEARBY BY DEPUTIES SAY THE SHOOTING HAPPENED AROUND 2 A.M. ON SUNDAY IN THE PARKING LOT OF SHAW’S PLAZA. IT’S A STRIP MALL AND THERE A CLUB NEARBY. THAT CLUB IS CLUB TIME. NOW, WE DID REACH OUT TO THEM AND THEY SAY IT ALL HAPPENED OFF OF THEIR PROPERTY AND THE DEPUTY WASN’T WORKING SECURITY FOR THEM WHEN THIS ALL HAPPENED. SHERIFF BILLY WOOD SAYS RIGHT NOW THEY’RE STILL TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHO FIRED THOSE SHOTS. SO NO. AS FOR THE SUSPECT AT THIS MOMENT, WE DON’T KNOW WHO HE OR HER IS. WHAT I DO KNOW, CITIZENS IS THERE WAS ROUGHLY ABOUT 100 PEOPLE IN THE PARKING LOT WHEN THE SHOOTING OCCURRED. SOMEONE SAW SOMETHING, HEARD SOMETHING AND KNOW SOMETHING. NOW, DEPUTIES SAY BOTH VICTIMS, THE CIVILIAN, AS WELL AS THE DEPUTY, THEY’RE EXPECTED TO BE OKAY. BUT IF ANYBODY KNOWS WHO THIS SHOOTER COULD BE, YOU SHOULD REACH OUT TO THE SHERIFF’S OFFICE OR CALL CRIME STOPPERS FOR NOW. REPORTING LIVE THIS MORNING. TONY ATKINS. WESH 2 NEWS. A MAN IS BEHIND BARS AFTER A NEWLYWED COUPLE WAS SHOT AND KILLED IN SOUTH FLORIDA. THIS HAPPENED IN WEST PALM BEACH ON SATURDAY MORNING AROUND 830. DEPUTIES ARRESTED THIS MAN. YOU SEE HIS MUG SHOT THERE ON SCREEN. SONY JOSEPHAT ON TWO COUNTS OF FIRST DEGREE MURDER. ONE WOMAN AT THE SCENE WHO SAYS SHE’S THE SISTER OF THE FEMALE VICTIM REPORTS THE COUPLE GOT MARRIED JUST A WEEK AGO AND NEIGHBORS SAY THEY WERE KIND AND THEY’RE SAD TO HEAR THIS NEWS. IT’S HARD WORKING. THIS IS HOW IT’S TERRIBLE. AND I DON’T KNOW HOW TO DESCRIBE THIS. MY HEART GOES OUT FOR THE DECEASED. I JUST PRAY THAT IT DOESN’T HAPPEN AGAIN TO SOMEONE ELSE. YOU KNOW, IT’S IT’S AWFUL. INVESTIGATORS HAVE NOT UNCOVERED ANY MOTIVE FOR THE DEADLY SHOOTING, JOSEPH, THAT’S BEING HELD ON NO BOND. NEW ON SUNRISE, A SERGEANT WITH THE BARTOW POLICE DEPARTMENT IS IN THE HOSPITAL THIS MORNING AFTER GETTING HIT BY A MINIVAN WHILE RESPONDING TO ANOTHER CRASH. THE POLK COUNTY SHERIFF’S OFFICE SAYS BARTOW POLICE GOT A CALL ABOUT A HIT AND RUN ON VAN FLEET DRIVE EAST IN FRONT OF WALMART. A DRIVER IN A MINIVAN THEN HIT THE SERGEANT DURING THAT INVESTIGATION. THE SERGEANT WENT TO THE HOSPITAL. THEY’RE EXPECTED TO BE OKAY. TURNING NOW TO SOUTH FLORIDA, RIVIERA BEACH FIRE RESCUE HAD AN UNFORGETTABLE REUNION YESTERDAY. A YOUNG GIRL WHO CREWS RESCUED FROM A BAD APARTMENT FIRE SIX YEARS AGO MET THE FIREFIGHTERS WHO SAVED HER LIFE. THE NOW SIX YEAR OLD IS ON A JOURNEY TO RECOVERY AND WANTS TO KNOW MORE ABOUT THE DAY SHE WAS INJURED IN THE FIRE. SHE WAS ABLE TO FIND THE ONE MONTH OLD BABY TRAPPED BETWEEN SEEN A DOOR THAT WAS KNOCKED DOWN AND AND A HALF MOON SHAPED PILLOW USED FOR TO PROP UP LITTLE CHILDREN WHEN HE PULLED THAT OFF, THE BABY STARTED TO CRY AND GOT THE BABY OUT THROUGH THE WINDOW. AND WE GOT HER RIGHT TO THE HOSPITAL. NOW, THIS YOUNG GIRL WAS ALSO TAKEN ON A TOUR OF THE FIRE STATION, GIVING HER AN INSIGHT INTO THE HEROIC WORK OF FIRSTRILLIONESPONDERS. 706 NOW SUNDAY MARKED TWO YEARS SINCE DEVASTATING TORNADOES STRUCK MAYFIELD, KENTUCKY. 80 PEOPLE DIED AND THOSE TORNADOES ALSO DESTROYED SO MANY HOMES AND BUILDINGS. YOU CAN SEE THAT RIGHT HERE. MARK VANDERHOFF FROM OUR SISTER STATION SHOWS US HOW PEOPLE ARE REBUILDING. I’M HERE IN WHAT WAS ONE OF THE HARDEST HIT NEIGHBORHOODS OF MAYFIELD. AND WHEN I WAS HERE, ONE YEAR AGO, THERE WAS LESS THAN A HANDFUL OF NEW HOUSES THAT HAD BEEN BUILT. NOW, IT ALMOST LOOKS LIKE THERE’S A NEW SUBDIVISION HERE. WE DEDICATE THIS SONG TO LOVE AND UNDERSTANDING. ON A RECENT DAY IN MAYFIELD, A CROWD GATHERED TO DEDICATE THIS NEWLY BUILT HOME. I MEAN, IT’S REALLY NICE, NICE HOME. NICER THAN THE ONE WE LOST, ACTUALLY, THIS IS WHAT WAS LEFT OF THE OLD HOME AFTER THE TORNADO RIPPED THROUGH MAYFIELD IN DECEMBER 2021. CARL GRAHAM AND ANNE FIESINGER WERE INSIDE WHEN IT STRUCK. THERE WAS A FINE, YOU COULD HEAR THE GLASS BREAKING. THERE WAS A TREE BACK HERE THAT CAME STRAIGHT THROUGH THE HOUSE. AND I WAS SITTING THERE SAYING, OH DEAR GOD, DEAR GOD, IF THIS IS OUR TIME, TAKE US FAST. THE TORNADO DESTROYED ENTIRE BLOCKS AND LEFT HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE WITHOUT A HOME. NONPROFITS SUCH AS THE HOPE INITIATIVE AND MENNONITE DISASTER SERVICE HAVE BEEN CRUCIAL IN THE HOME REBUILDING EFFORT. BUT MAYFIELD’S TOWN SQUARE REMAINS LARGELY EMPTY. TOM WHEELER AND HIS GRANDCHILDREN VISITED THE SITE OF A BUILDING HE USED TO OWN AND WORK IN. ALL THAT REMAINS THERE NOW IS THE BUILDING’S OLD BANK VAULT. I HOPE THAT SOMEONE COMES IN AND WANTS TO BUY THE WHOLE BLOCK AND DEVELOP IT ALL AT ONE TIME AND MAKE IT UNIFORM, MAKE WHAT THE CITY WANTS. I THINK THAT WOULD BE GOOD. IN THE MEANTIME, I’M GOING TO KEEP THE VAULT. IF SOMEBODY COMES IN AND WANTS TO BUY MY LOT, THAT’S FINE TOO. THE LACK OF PROGRESS IN THE CENTER OF TOWN HAS MANY WORRIED AND FRUSTRATED. I’VE WORKED OUT IN THE GYM EVERY MORNING WHAT’S GOING ON WITH THE TOWN? WHAT’S GOING TO HAPPEN TO THE HOTEL? PEOPLE ARE WANTING TO KNOW AND YOU KNOW THE BAD PART ABOUT NOT KNOWING IS ALWAYS FILLS WITH NEGATIVITY AND SO WHEN YOU DON’T KNOW IT’S NEGATIVITY, NEGATIVE NEGATIVITY. IT’S SOMETHING MAYFIELD’S MAYOR, KATHY O’NAN, IS ALL TOO FAMILIAR WITH. I TOTALLY UNDERSTAND WHEN WHEN PEOPLE HERE GET FRUSTRATED AND SAY IT’S TWO YEARS, THERE IS GOOD NEWS, SHE SAYS. ON MONDAY, THE CITY WILL BREAK GROUND ON A NEW PUBLIC WORKS FACILITY NEXT TO THIS SITE WHERE THE CANDLE FACTORY ONCE STOOD. THE TORNADO FLATTENED THE FACTORY WITH MORE THAN 100 PEOPLE INSIDE, EIGHT OF WHOM DIED. ALSO MONDAY, A GROUNDBREAKING ON A NEW COUNTY OFFICE BUILDING IS SCHEDULED AT THE SITE OF THE OLD COURTHOUSE, WHICH HAD TO BE TORN DOWN AFTER BEING BATTERED. THIS WAS CITY HALL AFTER THE TORNADO NEXT WEEK, MAYOR O’NAN WILL PRESENT PLANS TO CITY COUNCIL TO REBUILD IT HERE AT THE SAME SITE NEXT SUMMER. WE HAVE TO WAIT TILL BECAUSE WE’RE USING TAXPAYER DOLLARS, INSURANCE MONEY, FEMA MONEY, AND THEN HOPEFULLY SAFE FUNDING FROM THE STATE. WE HAVE TO GET ALL OF THAT IN PLACE ELSEWHERE, NEW BUSINESSES ARE SPRINGING UP IN THE INDUSTRIAL PARK. THIS BANK, THE FIRST COMMERCIAL BUSINESS TO BE REBUILT ON THE SQUARE, IS SET TO REOPEN IN JANUARY. AND GIDEON’S CROSSING, A NEW OFFICE PARK IS SELLING LOTS ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF TOWN. THE NEXT YEAR, WE’LL SEE A LOT, A LOT OF CONSTRUCTION WORK. WE HEAR A LOT OF HAMMERS NOW. WHILE I WAS HERE, I STOPPED INTO A LOCAL REAL ESTATE OFFICE. AND AS YOU CAN IMAGINE, THE BIGGEST PROBLEM THE AGENTS HAVE IS THAT THERE JUST AREN’T A LOT OF HOUSES FOR SALE. BUT THEY DID TELL ME THAT RECENTLY. THEY’VE HAD A COUPLE OF BUYERS CALL WHO WERE INTERESTED IN RELOCATING TO KENTUCKY AND THEY WERE CALLING FROM CALIFORNIA IN MAYFIELD, I’M MARK VANDERHOFF. WOW. SUCH PROGRESS. MAYFIELD ALSO RECEIVED MORE THAN $5 MILLION IN GRANT MONEY. CITY LEADERS SAY THEY PLAN TO USE IT TO BUILD 26 NEW HOMES. SEVERAL HOMES WERE DESTROYED AND THOUSANDS ARE STILL IN THE DARK. THIS MORNING AFTER MULTIPLE TORNADOES TOUCHED DOWN SATURDAY IN TENNESSEE. CREWS SAID IT COULD TAKE WEEKS TO FULLY RESTORE ELECTRICITY. AT LEAST THREE PEOPLE WERE KILLED IN NEARLY TWO DOZEN MORE WERE HURT IN CLARKSVILLE. THIS IS ALL ACCORDING TO THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE, WHERE AN EF THREE TORNADO MOVED THROUGH WITH WINDS UP TO 150MPH AND A PATH 600 YARDS WIDE. THAT’S ABOUT A THIRD OF A MILE IN WIDTH IN DAVIDSON COUNTY. THERE WERE TWO ADULTS AND A CHILD KILLED AFTER A TWISTER RIPPED THROUGH MADISON, BRINGING THE DEATH TOLL TO SIX PEOPLE. WHILE MORE THAN 80 PEOPLE DIED IN AT LEAST 26 TORNADOES SO FAR THIS YEAR. THAT IS THE MOST IN A YEAR SINCE 2011, WHEN ABOUT 550 PEOPLE DIED IN MORE THAN 50 TORNADOES TRULY DEVASTATE THING. THE DEATHS THIS YEAR HAPPENED IN A DOZEN DIFFERENT STATES. MISSISSIPPI HAD THE MO
