Crash temporarily closes Interstate 85 near Lake Road exit in Davidson County, NC Highway Patrol says

NORMANDY. GOOD MORNING AND THANK YOU FOR JOINING US. I'm star Connor here, joined by my twin, DYLAN BUTLER. WE ARE TWINS. THIS MORNING. WE ARE TWINS REPRESENTING CHAPEL HILL. YEAH, CAROLINE. HAVE A GOOD DAY BEING A TAR HEEL. They had this big win last night, right where you were sleeping, right? YOU ARE SURE. YEAH. We can't stay up and watch these last few baseball games, but I can tell you about the forecast and I can tell you that, unfortunately, we received some bad news this morning. IT WILL BE WARMER AND HUMIER LATER THIS AFTERNOON. SO DEFINITELY THANK YOU FOR AGREEING HERE. OF COURSE IT IS IMPORTANT TO GET THIS INFORMATION WHEN WE HAVE THESE CONDITIONS ON THE ROUTE. HIGH POINT UNIVERSITY A GOOD START TO THE DAY. SOME HIGH CLOUDS ABOVE BUT YOU NOTICE IT'S MELTER OUTSIDE AND IT ALSO FEELS A BIT MORE HUMID. It's 66 hours now. THIS DEW POINT APPROACHING 60 IN THE REST OF THE REGION. DEW POINT TEMPERATURES HAVE INCREASED ABOUT FIVE DEGREES FROM WHERE THEY WERE YESTERDAY. THE DEW POINTS WERE IN THE 40S AND 50S YESTERDAY, AND NOW THEY ARE IN THE 60S LATER. THEY WILL BE APPROACHING 70. SO DEFINITELY A LITTLE HUMIER AIR COMING FROM THE WEST. JUST A FEW CLOUDS ABOVE THERE IS A WEAKENING STORM COMPLEX RIGHT NOW. BACK WEST INTO PARTS OF TENNESSEE WHICH WILL MOVE TO FAR SOUTHWEST OF NORTH CAROLINA OVER THE NEXT HOURS, BUT I EXPECT MOST OF OUR REGION HERE IN THE TRIAD TO REMAIN DRY FROM THIS FIRST BATCH OF SHOWERS AND STORMS HERE. THESE STORMS WILL NOT NECESSARILY REACH OUR AREA, BUT WE WILL SEE CLOUDS LATER. AND AS THIS FRONT COMES IN THIS EVENING, WE COULD HAVE AN ISOLATED SHOWER OR STORM LATE LATE IN THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING SUNDAY. YOU SEE HERE FUTURECAST IS WITH ABOUT A 30% CHANCE OF RAIN LATER THIS AFTERNOON AND THIS EVENING. AS THIS FRONT PASSED BEFORE STARTING TO CLEAR OVERNIGHT AND THROUGH MONDAY. BUT FOR NOW, IT'S A PRETTY HOT AND HUMID SUMMER DAY. BEST CHANCE OF RAIN LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND IN THE EVENING. There might be thunder there too. WARMING UP THIS MORNING RAPIDLY IN THE 80'S. I HAVE A PREVIEW OF GOOD WEATHER TO START THE WORK WEEK HERE IN A FEW MINUTES. Very good, thank you Dylan. IT IS NOW 803 AND STILL NO ARRESTS HAVE BEEN MADE IN FATAL SHOOTING IN WINSTON-SALEM. THE POLICE RESPONDED TO NORTHAMPTON DRIVE AROUND 1:00 SATURDAY MORNING. Officers arrived to find Darren Lamont, Barnes Junior, suffering from a gunshot wound in the Adams Market parking lot. EMS transported the 33-year-old man to the hospital where he died from his injuries. Detectives still have no suspects in a group in Greensboro. She will work today to find a mother who has been missing for almost six months. Marissa Carmichael was last seen at the Exxonmobil gas station on East Market Street. RETURN ON JANUARY 14. INVESTIGATORS SAY THEY HAVE RECEIVED NO LEADS OR SHE MAY BE A GROUP WORKING TO BRING MARISSA HOME AND WILL GATHER ON EAST MARKET STREET THIS MORNING. They will distribute leaflets in the hope of finding advice. LOCAL POLICE WIDOW FIGHTS TO RECEIVE DEATH BENEFITS FOR HER DEAD HUSBAND, CHERYL MCDONNELL HAS AN APPEAL HEARING BEFORE THE NORTH CAROLINA INDUSTRIAL COMMISSION ON JUNE 19. It is the state agency that oversees workers' compensation law. ONLY ONE COMMISSIONER WHO HEARD HIS CASE IN FEBRUARY 2023 DENIED HIS CLAIM. HER HUSBAND, WINSTON-SALEM POLICE SERGEANT MIKE MCDONNELL, DIED ON OCTOBER 21, 2021. ACCORDING TO HIS DEATH CERTIFICATE, COVID 19 WAS THE REASON MCDONNELL BELIEVES HE GOT THE VIRUS FROM A CO-WORKER WHILE HE WORKED AT THE CAROLINA CLASSIC FAIR. The city of Winston-Salem says it can't prove he got it while he was working. Additionally, he was not vaccinated, so his death does not meet the definition of a work accident. IN A STATEMENT TO WXII 12, MCDONNELL SAYS THE INITIAL CLAIM DENIAL WAS DISAPPOINTING, ADDING, QUOTING, IT WOULD BE GOOD FOR MIKE'S SON TO HAVE THE MOST OF ONE HAND THAT HE CAN GET AFTER LOSSING HIS FATHER. Something in there about denying equal access to justice just doesn't seem right. AND THE DEATH OF SERGEANT MCDONALD WAS CLASSIFIED AS LINE OF DUTY AT THE FEDERAL AND STATE LEVEL, ACCORDING TO THE NATIONAL LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS MEMORIAL FUND, COVID 19 WAS BY FAR THE LEADING CAUSE OF DEATH AMONG OFFICERS POLICE IN 2021, AND THIS WEEK IS NORTH CAROLINA SAFE ACTION WEEK. ATRIUM HEALTH, WAKE FOREST BAPTIST AND OTHER COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS SET UP FOR A FREE EVENT IN WINSTON-SALEM YESTERDAY TO KEEP CHILDREN SAFE. WE'LL TAKE A LOOK. I want to make sure they are safe. THIS IS THE MESSAGE FROM SATURDAY’S NC SAFE EVENT. ATRIUM HEALTH WAKE FOREST BAPTIST AND OTHER COMMUNITY MEMBERS have handed out free gun locks, LIFE VESTS AND EVEN BIKE HELMETS TO HELP CHILDREN STAY SAFE THIS SUMMER. I think it's great, especially for headsets. I'm a big one if it has wheels. We wear a mom type of helmet, so I'm excited to see they're giving away a bunch of helmets for free. ACCORDING TO THE NORTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC SAFETY, FIREARMS ARE NOW THE LEADING CAUSE OF INJURY-RELATED DEATHS FOR CHILDREN AND TEENAGERS IN OUR STATE. MANY CHILDREN ARE BROUGHT EACH YEAR. Um, especially all year round. UNFORTUNATELY, WITH GUN VIOLENCE. AND WE HAVE A LOT OF CHILDREN WHO HAVE TO BE HOSPITALIZED AND HAVE SURGERY AND HAVE VERY SCARY EVENTS FOR FAMILIES DUE TO GUN VIOLENCE, A SAFE WAY TO STORE GUNS IS WITH A GUN LOCK. And luckily we have free gun locks here all the time. YOU'LL READ ABOUT CHILDREN HAVING ACCIDENTS, WHETHER IN WATER OR HEAD INJURIES OR WEAPON INJURIES OR WHATEVER, AND THEREFORE HAVING ACCESS TO THINGS TO HELP KEEP THEM IN SAFETY IS JUST IMPORTANT. WE CAN, YOU KNOW, THANKS TO THESE FREE WEAPON LOCKS, HELP TO AVOID AN EVENT THAT NEVER COULD
