Westmoreland DA’s office: Man fatally shot at Elks Lodge in New Kensington
CORRESPONDENT GINGER ZEE HAS MORE CELL PHONES TO TOASTERS, TO POWER TOOLS. ELECTRONICS HAVE BECOME A CENTRAL PART OF OUR LIVES. BUT WHEN THEY BREAK DOWN OR WE’RE LOOKING TO UPGRADE, PAYING ATTENTION TO HOW WE GET RID OF OUR UNWANTED ELECTRONICS CAN MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE FOR THE ENVIRONMENT. ELECTRONIC WASTE, ALSO KNOWN AS E-WASTE, IS ALL OF OUR ELECTRONIC DEVICES WITH A PLUG OR BATTERY. IT’S A MOST FAST INCREASING WASTE STREAM WE SEE AT THE MOMENT, AND MANY ARE FULL OF DANGEROUS CHEMICALS LIKE MERCURY OR LEAD THAT CAN POLLUTE THE GROUND AND AIR IF LEFT IN LANDFILLS OR BURNED, ACCORDING TO THE UNITED NATIONS E-WASTE MONITOR REPORT, THE UNITED STATES PRODUCED MORE THAN 7,000,000,000KG OF E-WASTE IN 2022. LOOKING TO THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, ROUGHLY 58% OF ALL E-WASTE IS COLLECTED AND PROPERLY TREATED AT THE END OF LIFE. BUT THAT MEANS ALSO THAT NEARLY HALF OF IT IS NOT PROPERLY TREATED AND COLLECTED. AND WHEN IT’S NOT COLLECTED, IT CAN ALSO NOT BE RECYCLED IN THE WAY IT SHOULD. DOCTOR RUDIGER KERR, HEAD OF THE UN SUSTAINABLE CYCLES PROGRAM AND SENIOR MANAGER OF THE UN INSTITUTE FOR RESEARCH AND TRAINING, SAYS THERE ARE WAYS THAT WE CAN LIMIT OUR E-WASTE. ONCE WE CAME TO THE CONCLUSION WE WANT TO GET RID OF SOMETHING, WE SHOULD LOOK FOR A PROPER FACILITY TO GET RID OF OUR E-WASTE, OUR OBSOLETE ELECTRONICS. THIS CAN BE RECYCLING CENTERS. THIS CAN ALSO BE THE RETAILERS WHO ARE TAKING BACK ALSO EQUIPMENT TO A CERTAIN AMOUNT. EQUALLY AS IMPORTANT TO PROPER RECYCLING IS EXTENDING THE LIFESPAN OF OUR ELECTRONICS. IF OUR TECH LASTS LONGER, IT MEANS LESS ENDS UP IN THE LANDFILL. THINKING ABOUT WAYS TO REPAIR OUR GADGETS INSTEAD OF UPGRADING TO THE NEWEST MODEL CAN BE BOTH GOOD FOR THE ENVIRONMENT AND OUR WALLETS. WITH THIS CLIMATE MINUTE, I’M GINGER ZEE. STILL PLENTY MORE TO COME. NEWS, WEATHER AND SPORTS EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW TO START YOUR SATURDAY. PITTSBURGH’S ACTION NEWS FOUR CONTINUES RIGHT NOW. A MURDER CASE AGAINST A TEENAGER MOVES FROM CRIMINAL TO JUVENILE COURT ONLY ON FOUR. WE’RE HEARING FROM THE GRIEVING FAMILY OF THE VICTIM THEIR PLEAS FOR JUSTICE AND THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY’S RESPONSE. VACCINE SCHEDULE, SHAKE UP. I’M JACKIE DEFUSCO IN WASHINGTON WITH THE NEW RECOMMENDATION FOR NEWBORNS AND WHY MEDICAL GROUPS ARE FURIOUS. AND THE PENN STATE NITTANY LIONS HAVE FOUND THEIR COACH OF THE FUTURE. WHO WILL SHARE? WHO IS LEADING THE BLUE AND WHITE IN HAPPY VALLEY? PITTSBURGH’S ACTION NEWS FOUR THIS MORNING STARTS NOW. GOOD MORNING I’M CARLOS FLORES IN FOR LILY COLEMAN. LET’S KICK THINGS OFF WITH PITTSBURGH’S ACTION WEATHER METEOROLOGIST JILL SZWED AND YOUR CERTIFIED MOST ACCURATE FORECAST. JARRED HILL TODAY AND TOMORROW. REALLY JUST TRADITIONAL WINTER DAYS FOR US HERE IN WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA AS WE’VE GOT CLOUDS. ALSO SOME FLURRIES THAT WILL SHOW UP LATE IN THE DAY TOMORROW. TEMPERATURES, THOUGH NOT QUITE AS COLD AS WE SAW DURING THE WEEK. AND IN FACT ALREADY THIS MORNING GOT A BIT OF A LEG UP, TEMPERATURES ACROSS THE BOARD, ANYWHERE FROM FOUR TO EVEN OVER 20 DEGREES WARMER THAN THIS TIME YESTERDAY. NOW, KEEP IN MIND YESTERDAY WAS THE COLDEST MORNING OF THE SEASON YET AS WE’RE HEADING CLOSER TO 10:00 THIS MORNING, OVER THE COURSE OF THE NEXT HOUR, WE WILL SEE CAN SNEAK IN RATHER A LITTLE BIT OF SUNSHINE. TEMPERATURES, THOUGH SLOWLY WARMING OUT OF THE 20S INTO THE MID 30S THIS AFTERNOON, FACTORING IN A LITTLE BIT OF A BREEZE, ESPECIALLY OVER THE COMING HOURS. THAT WILL MAKE IT FEEL SLIGHTLY COLDER AS WE WORK THROUGH THE START OF YOUR SATURDAY. MORE THE SAME TEMPERATURE WISE TOMORROW, BUT THEN A QUICK HITTING COLD FRONT ARRIVES AS WE GO THROUGH THE AFTERNOON ON SUNDAY. THAT WILL BRING A FEW FLURRIES. EVEN A PASSING LIGHT SNOW SHOWER. BETTER CHANCE WILL BE NORTH OF THE CITY OF PITTSBURGH WITH EVERYTHING FIZZLING OUT TOWARDS 8:00. NOT EXPECTING ANYTHING TO REALLY STICK ACROSS THE AREA, BUT WE WILL SEE MORE WINTRY WEATHER FOR THE WEEK AHEAD. I’LL BREAK DOWN THOSE OPPORTUNITIES FOR YOU DAY BY DAY IN YOUR 4-DAY PLUS 4 MORE FORECAST. THIS MORNING, A FEDERAL ADVISORY COMMITTEE IS CHANGING A DECADES OLD VACCINE RECOMMENDATION FOR NEWBORNS, BUT IT’S FACING WIDESPREAD BACKLASH FROM MEDICAL LEADERS. THE PANEL WAS HANDPICKED BY HEALTH SECRETARY ROBERT F KENNEDY JR, AND MANY OF ITS MEMBERS SHARE HIS SKEPTICISM OF VACCINES. OUR WASHINGTON CORRESPONDENT JACKIE DEFUSCO JOINS US LIVE NOW. JACKIE, WHAT’S CHANGING HERE? CARLOS, THE CDC’S VACCINE ADVISORY COMMITTEE IS NO LONGER RECOMMENDING THAT ALL BABIES GET THE HEPATITIS B SHOT ON THE DAY THAT THEY ARE BORN. NOW, INSTEAD, THE PANEL IS ONLY RECOMMENDING THE BIRTH DOSE IN CASES WHERE THE MOTHER HAS TESTED POSITIVE FOR THE LIVER INFECTION OR WASN’T TESTED. IF PARENTS IN OTHER CASES CHOOSE TO WAIT, THE COMMITTEE SUGGESTS STARTING THE VACCINATION SERIES WHEN THE CHILD IS TWO MONTHS OLD. DESPITE THE SHIFTING GUIDANCE, THOUGH, INSURANCE PLANS ARE EXPECTED TO CONTINUE COVERAGE OF THE BIRTH DOSE. AND THE AMERICAN ACADEMY OF PEDIATRICS STILL RECOMMENDING IT FOR ALL NEWBORNS. THE GROUP’S PRESIDENT SAYS, QUOTE, THIS IRRESPONSIBLE AND PURPOSEFULLY MISLEADING GUIDANCE WILL LEAD TO MORE HEPATITIS B INFECTIONS IN INFANTS AND CHILDREN, A MESSAGE ECHOED BY SOME MEMBERS OF THE COMMITTEE. THIS HAS A GREAT POTENTIAL TO CAUSE HARM, AND I SIMPLY HOPE THAT THE COMMITTEE WILL ACCEPT ITS RESPONSIBILITY WHEN THIS HARM IS CAUSED. ON FRIDAY, PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP SAID THE COMMITTEE, QUOTE, MADE A VERY GOOD DECISION. HE ARGUED THE VAST MAJORITY OF BABIES ARE AT NO RISK OF HEPATITIS B. THAT, HE SAID, IS A DISEASE THAT IS MOSTLY TRANSMITTED SEXUALLY OR THROUGH DIRTY NEEDLES. EXPERTS, HOWEVER, SAY INFANTS CAN BE EXPOSED IN SEVERAL WAYS, EITHER THROUGH CHILDBIRTH OR EVEN THROUGH CLOSE CAREGIVERS WHO MAY NOT KNOW THAT THEY’RE INFECTED. REPUBLICAN SENATOR BILL CASSIDY, A DOCTOR WHO HAS TREATED PATIENTS WITH HEPATITIS B, SAID THE NEW GUIDANCE, QUOTE, MAKES AMERICA SICKER. AND HE URGED THE ACTING CDC DIRECTOR NOT TO SIGN OFF ON IT. MEANWHILE, MORE CHANGES COULD BE COMING. PRESIDENT TRUMP ALSO ON FRIDAY QUESTIONED THE EFFICACY OF THE BROADER VACCINE SCHEDULE AND SAID THAT HE WOULD FAST TRACK AN EVALUATION OF HOW THE U.S. COMPARES TO OTHER COUNTRIES THAT RECOMMEND FEWER SHOTS FOR CHILDREN. LIVE IN WASHINGTON. I’M JACKIE DEFUSCO. PITTSBURGH’S ACTION NEWS FOUR. JACKIE DEFUSCO IN OUR WASHINGTON BUREAU. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR COVERAGE HERE AT HOME. PENNSYLVANIA GOVERNOR JOSH SHAPIRO SLAMMED THE VACCINE SCHEDULE CHANGES, CRITICIZING HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES SECRETARY ROBERT F KENNEDY JR AND THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION FOR WHAT HE CALLS CHAOS AND CONFUSION AMONG OUR DOCTORS AND FAMILIES. LOCAL HEALTH OFFICIALS ARE SHARING A SIMILAR SENTIMENT WITH PITTSBURGH’S ACTION NEWS FOUR REPORTER JORDAN CIOPPA. SHE SPOKE TO AN INFECTIOUS DISEASE EXPERT WHO SAYS THIS MOVE COULD CAUSE EVEN MORE PROBLEMS DOWN THE ROAD. LOCAL EXPERT DOCTOR AMESH ADALJA SAYS THIS VOTE TO REVERSE THE DECADES OLD RECOMMENDATION WAS THE WRONG DECISION. HE BELIEVES THIS WILL CREATE CONFUSION AND ULTIMATELY PROMOTE VACCINE HESITANCY. THIS DECISION WAS MADE BASICALLY IN DEFIANCE OF ALL EVIDENCE BECAUSE THERE IS NO SAFETY RISK FOR THE HEPATITIS B VACCINE, DOCTOR AMESH ADALJA, A PITTSBURGH BASED INFECTIOUS DISEASE PHYSICIAN, IS PUSHING BACK ON A FEDERAL VACCINE ADVISORY COMMITTEE’S DECISION TO CHANGE ITS STANCE ON THE HEPATITIS B VACCINE. ON FRIDAY, THE GROUP VOTED TO END THE RECOMMENDATION THAT ALL U.S. BABIES RECEIVED THE SHOT THE DAY THEY’RE BORN. THIS VACCINE RECOMMENDATION WAS IN PLACE FOR A VERY REAL REASON. AND, ACCORDING TO ADALJA, HAD BEEN SINCE 1991. CHILDREN WERE STILL GETTING INFECTED WITH HEPATITIS B, EVEN DESPITE RECOMMENDATIONS TO TEST PREGNANT WOMEN. PEOPLE WERE FALLING THROUGH THE CRACKS AND CHILDREN WERE GETTING INFECTED WITH HEPATITIS B, HE SAYS. CONTRACTING THE VIRUS AS A CHILD IS MORE LIKELY TO LEAD TO LIVER DISEASE. THE NEED FOR LIVER TRANSPLANTATION OR DEATH. THE LANGUAGE OFFERS FLEXIBILITY, ACCESS, COVERAGE. AT ANY TIME I VOTE YES, THE ADVISORY COMMITTEE ON IMMUNIZATION PRACTICES OPTED TO RECOMMEND THE BIRTH DOSE OF THE HEP B VACCINE FOR BABIES WHOSE MOTHERS TESTED POSITIVE OR WEREN’T TESTED AT ALL. FOR ALL OTHER BABIES. THE RECOMMENDATION REVERSAL LEAVES THE DECISION TO VACCINATE AT BIRTH UP TO PARENTS AND DOCTORS, WHILE ADALJA SAYS DOCTORS WILL LIKELY LOOK TO PROFESSIONAL SOCIETIES FOR GUIDANCE, HE PREDICTS THE CHANGE WILL CREATE CONFUSION BECAUSE NOW YOU HAVE THE ACIP BASICALLY MAKING AN ANTI-VACCINE STATEMENT, WHICH IS GOING TO FURTHER INCREASE VACCINE HESITANCY. ALREADY, ABOUT 20% OF PARENTS REFUSE THE HEPATITIS B VACCINE FOR THEIR NEWBORN. ADALJA BELIEVES THAT NUMBER IS ONLY GOING TO INCREASE IN THE NEWSROOM. I’M JORDAN CIOPPA, PITTSBURGH’S ACTION NEWS FOUR. NEW THIS MORNING, A FIRE AT AN APARTMENT BUILDING IN MONROEVILLE. LOCAL FIREFIGHTERS SHARED THESE IMAGES OF THE SCENE ON FOX HILL DRIVE AROUND 4 A.M. THEY SAY CREWS ARRIVED TO FIND SMOKE SHOWING FROM THE FOURTH FLOOR AND GOT THE FIRE UNDER CONTROL. WITHIN 30 MINUTES. THE ALLEGHENY COUNTY FIRE MARSHAL IS INVESTIGATING THE CAUSE. ALSO NEW THIS MORNING, CREWS BATTLING A HOUSE FIRE IN EAST HUNTINGTON, WESTMORELAND COUNTY OVERNIGHT DISPATCHERS CONFIRMED THAT FLAMES BROKE OUT ON HOMESTEAD AVENUE JUST AFTER 1230. THEY SAY IT HAPPENED IN THE BASEMENT. FORTUNATELY, NO ONE. NO INJURIES ARE BEING REPORTED. AND WE ARE WORKING TO LEARN MORE ABOUT A LARGE RESPONSE FROM FIRE CREWS AND POLICE IN MCCANDLESS. OVERNIGHT. OUR PHOTOJOURNALIST CAPTURED THIS SCENE AT NORTH PARK LAKE AROUND 130 THIS MORNING. THIS IS AT THE INTERSECTION OF BABCOCK BOULEVARD AND EAST INGOMAR ROAD. YOU CAN SEE CREWS CARRYING WHAT APPEARS TO BE A RESCUE BOAT RIGHT NOW. IT’S UNCLEAR WHAT LED TO THIS RESPONSE. WE HAVE REACHED OUT TO OFFICIALS TO FIND OUT, AND WE’LL KEEP YOU UPDATED. NEW. THIS MORNING, TWO MEN ARE ACCUSED OF AN ELDER FRAUD SCHEME IN OUR AREA AND ACROSS THE COUNTRY. POLICE SAY THEY USED DECEPTIVE EMAILS TELLING THE VICTIMS TO GIVE THEM TENS OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS THROUGH DEPOSITS INTO BITCOIN ATMS. IN TOTAL, THE PAIR ALLEGEDLY LAUNDERED ABOUT $26 MILLION. TRAYVON YEARWOOD OF FLORIDA AND AMIT JAIN OF VIRGINIA ARE FACING FEDERAL CHARGES. BOTH MEN COULD FACE UP TO 40 YEARS IN PRISON IF CONVICTED. A FORMER POLICE CHIEF IS FACING CHARGES AS PART OF A DRUG INVESTIGATION. HE’S ACCUSED OF STEALING FROM HIS OWN DEPARTMENT, ACCORDING TO A GRAND JURY INDICTMENT. IT ALL STARTED IN 2021 WHEN JOHN BERGER GOT PRESCRIPTION PILLS FROM MICHAEL HOOTMAN FOR BACK PAIN AND STARTED TAKING PART IN DRUG EXCHANGES WHILE BERGER WAS SERVING AS THE LIGONIER VALLEY POLICE CHIEF. INVESTIGATORS SAY THEY CONDUCTED A SEARCH WARRANT ON HOOTMAN HOME AND POLICE CRUISER, FINDING SEVERAL DRUGS, INCLUDING COCAINE, MARIJUANA, TESTOSTERONE AND PRESCRIPTION PILLS IN THE HOUSE, AND DISCARDED PRESCRIPTIONS BELIEVED TO BE TAKEN FROM THE POLICE STATION’S DRUG TAKE BACK BOX INSIDE THE POLICE CRUISER. BOTH MEN ARE FACING SEVERAL CHARGES, INCLUDING BRIBERY AND DRUG RELATED OFFENSES. ONLY ON FOUR, A LOCAL FATHER IS MAKING A RENEWED CALL FOR JUSTICE. HIS SON, DUMONT ADAMS, WAS KILLED IN 2021, IN DUQUESNE, ALLEGHENY COUNTY, 14 YEAR OLD KHALIL OWENS TURNED HIMSELF IN FOR THE CRIME IN 2021 AND WAS CHARGED AS AN ADULT. BUT NOW THAT IS ALL CHANGED. OWENS HAS BEEN RELEASED AND IS CERTIFIED AS AN ADULT. WITH THE CRIME NOW FALLING UNDER JUVENILE COURT. I JUST SAT THERE AND JUST START CRYING BECAUSE I WAS CONFUSED AND I SAID, THIS IS WHAT I GET FOR GOING TO THE JUSTICE SYSTEM AND DOING THE RIGHT THING. AND THIS IS I MEAN, SO YOU’RE JUST SAYING TO ME, THIS IS MY OPINION THAT JUST SO YOU’RE 12 OR 13 YEARS OLD, YOU’RE LEGALLY, I MEAN, YOU’RE ALLOWED TO KILL SOMEBODY AND GET YOU’RE GETTING AWAY WITH IT. ALTHOUGH THE DA’S OFFICE SAYS THEY OPPOSE THE MOVE AND APPEALED, THE SUPERIOR COURT UPHELD THE DECISION TO MOVE THE CASE. OWENS WAS RELEASED JUST THREE YEARS AFTER THE MURDER, AND IN JANUARY, THE CASE OFFICIALLY CLOSES. THE FAMILY OF COREY COMPARATEUR WILL SOON BEGIN A FOUNDATION IN HIS MEMORY. COMPARATEUR WAS KILLED DURING AN ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT ON PRESIDENT TRUMP IN BUTLER DURING HIS LATEST CAMPAIGN IN 2024, ACCORDING TO OUR PARTNERS AT THE TRIB. THE COREY COMPARATOR FOUNDATION WILL BE A NONPROFIT AIMED AT FINANCIALLY SUPPORTING FIRST RESPONDERS, VETERANS AND DOG RESCUES. COREY SERVED AS THE ARMY AND SERVED IN THE ARMY AND WAS A LONGTIME FIREFIGHTER. WHILE NOT OFFICIALLY FORMED, IT WILL BE BASED IN A BUILDING IN TOWN ROAD IN BUFFALO TOWNSHIP. AND FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 12 SEASONS, A NEW COACH WILL BE LEADING THE WAY IN HAPPY VALLEY ACTION SPORTS DIRECTOR ANDREW STOCKEY IS HERE NOW WITH THIS UPDATE. IT TOOK NEARLY TWO MONTHS AND MORE THAN A FEW NEAR MISSES, BUT THIS MORNING, PENN STATE HAS FINALLY FOUND A NEW HEAD FOOTBALL COACH PENDING FINAL APPROVAL FROM THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES. MATT CAMPBELL HAS AGREED TO AN EIGHT YEAR DEAL TO BE THE NEXT LEADER OF THE NITTANY LIONS. HE REPLACES JAMES FRANKLIN, WHO WAS FIRED AT MIDSEASON. THE 46 YEAR OLD CAMPBELL IS A THREE TIME BIG 12 COACH OF THE YEAR, AND WE LEARNED IT WAS MORE THAN JUST FOOTBALL THAT LED THIS OHIO NATIVE TO TAKE THE JOB IN STATE COLLEGE. HERE’S HIS NOW FORMER BOSS AT IOWA STATE. THIS WAS ENTIRELY A PERSONAL DECISION THAT HE WAS WRESTLING WITH ABOUT. IS THIS THE TIME TO GO HOME AND BE YOU KNOW, HE’S GOT A MOTHER THAT’S GOT CANCER. ERICA’S MOTHER HAS BEEN SICK, YOU KNOW, AND SO TO BE ABLE TO GO HOME NOW, PENN STATE PLAYERS WANTED TERRY SMITH HIRED AS HEAD COACH. THE OKLAHOMA NATIVE DID NOT GET THE JOB. BUT THE SCHOOL SAYS SMITH WILL STAY AND WORK WITH NEW HEAD COACH MATT CAMPBELL. REPORTS SAY THE PENN STATE GRAD GOT A FOUR YEAR DEAL TO REMAIN IN STATE COLLEGE, ANDREW STOCKEY. PITTSBURGH’S ACTION NEWS FOUR. ALL RIGHT HERE AT HOME, THE AVONWORTH ANTELOPES ARE IN CUMBERLAND COUNTY TO COMPETE FOR A STATE CHAMPIONSHIP. AND DESPITE THE COLD, THEIR COMMUNITY GAVE THE FOOTBALL TEAM A HEARTWARMING SENDOFF. YESTERDAY, THEY EVEN GOT A POLICE ESCORT. PRETTY COOL.
