SUMMARY: As the anniversary of World War One approaches, veterans in the area are honored for their service. Jacob Murphy reports live from a local VFW post, emphasizing the significance of these community spaces. Veterans, like Jerry Tobey and Al Butler, find pride and healing through camaraderie, sharing experiences that others may not understand. Despite differences in branch of service, they foster bonds of brotherhood and support. The VFW provides a welcoming environment for veterans to connect, and the organization is experiencing growth, with a notable increase in membership.

The city of Rogers has one of the 77 VFW posts across the state.

SUMMARY: Luigi Manion, a 26-year-old charged with murder in the shooting death of United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson, was apprehended in Altoona, Pennsylvania. He was recognized at a McDonald’s and displayed nervous behavior when questioned about his recent whereabouts in New York City. Investigators quickly filed charges after uncovering significant evidence against him, including a fake ID linked to a hostel in Manhattan and a ghost gun capable of firing 9mm rounds. Casings from these rounds were found at the crime scene. All evidence related to Manion’s arrest has been transferred to the NYPD for further investigation.

Luigi Mangione was dressed in an orange jumpsuit as officers led him from a vehicle into the courthouse when he started shouting to the cameras. (Via CBS).
