PENNDOT: All lanes reopen after police activity along portion of the Parkway East
DO YOU SIT FOR HOURS AT A TIME? EVEN IF YOU ARE FIT, SITTING FOR TOO LONG CAN TAKE A TOLL ON YOUR VASCULAR HEALTH. A NEW STUDY SUGGESTS. THERE MIGHT BE A SWEET SOLUTION. COCO. HERE’S ABC’S JACQUELINE LEE BEFORE SITTING FOR TWO HOURS, 40 HEALTHY YOUNG MEN IN THE UK DRANK A COCOA BEVERAGE WITH HIGH OR LOW AMOUNTS OF FLAVANOLS, A TYPE OF ANTIOXIDANT FOUND IN COCOA, TEA AND BLUEBERRIES. THE MEN WHO HAD HIGH FLAVANOL COCOA MAINTAINED HEALTHY BLOOD AND ARTERY FUNCTION, ACCORDING TO A NEW RESEARCH IN THE JOURNAL OF PHYSIOLOGY. BUT THOSE WHO DRANK LOW FLAVANOL COCOA, THEIR BLOOD SUGAR WENT UP AND THEIR MUSCLES GOT LESS OXYGEN. THE TAKEAWAY NO MATTER HOW FIT YOU ARE, FLAVANOLS CAN HELP PROTECT YOUR VASCULAR HEALTH FROM THE HARMFUL EFFECTS OF PROLONGED SITTING. RESEARCHERS DID NOT INCLUDE WOMEN IN THE STUDY DUE TO EXPECTED HORMONAL EFFECTS ON BLOOD VESSEL FUNCTION, SO IT’S NOT CLEAR IF WOMEN WOULD SEE THE SAME BENEFITS. SO NEXT TIME YOU’RE PARKED AT A DESK OR SITTING ON THE COUCH, POUR YOURSELF A CUP OF HIGH FLAVANOL COCOA. I’M JACQUELINE LEE. SOUNDS GOOD. THANKS FOR JOINING US FOR PITTSBURGH’S ACTION NEWS FOUR AT 4:00. PITTSBURGH’S ACTION NEWS FOUR AT 5:00 WITH SHANNON AND ANDREW STARTS RIGHT NOW. NOW ON PITTSBURGH’S ACTION NEWS FOUR. MAYOR CORI O’CONNOR SWORN IN AS THE 62ND MAYOR OF THE CITY. PITTSBURGH IS MORE THAN WHERE WE LIVE. IT IS OUR IDENTITY. WE’RE LIVE FROM THE CEREMONY. THE STEELERS ARE KINGS OF THE NORTH. WE HEAD INSIDE THE LOCKER ROOM TO FIND OUT HOW THE GUYS ARE FEELING. JUST 24 HOURS LATER. IT WAS CRAZY. I AIN’T GOING TO LIE. IT WAS A ROLLER COASTER. MAX MAXWELL USUALLY BLESSES ATHLETIC FIELDS HERE ON SAINT VINCENT COLLEGE’S CAMPUS, BUT LAST NIGHT HE FOUND HIMSELF AT ACRISURE STADIUM, AND THE STEELERS TOOK HOME A CRUCIAL WIN. WE HAVE REACTION FROM FATHER MAX AND OTHERS TONIGHT. PITTSBURGH’S ACTION NEWS FOUR AT FIVE STARTS NOW, AND WE START WITH BREAKING NEWS AT FIVE. SHOTS FIRED IN THE CITY OF DUQUESNE. ALLEGHENY COUNTY POLICE SAY THIS HAPPENED IN THE AREA OF SOUTH SEVENTH STREET THIS AFTERNOON. NOW NOBODY WAS HIT.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR JOINING US FOR PITTSBURGH’S ACTION NEWS FOUR AT 5:00. I’M SHANNON PERRINE I’M ANDREW STOCKEY, MAYOR O’CONNOR INAUGURATED TODAY. AND REPORTER SHELDON INGRAM JOINS US NOW FROM THAT CEREMONY, WHICH HAPPENED A BIT EARLIER TODAY. SO, SHELDON, WHAT WAS THE MAYOR’S ADDRESS LIKE? WELL, ANDREW, FIRST OF ALL, MAYOR CORY O’CONNOR WAS FUNNY, SENTIMENTAL AND EMOTIONAL DURING HIS INAUGURAL ADDRESS. AND HERE IS THE MOMENT WHEN HE WAS SWORN IN AS PITTSBURGH’S 62ND MAYOR. THE DUTIES OF MY OFFICE, THE DUTIES OF MY OFFICE TO THE BEST OF MY ABILITY, TO THE BEST OF MY ABILITY. SO HELP ME GOD. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN OF PITTSBURGH. MAYOR CORY O’CONNOR SAYS THERE ARE SEVERAL PRIORITIES HE WANTS TO ADDRESS AS MAYOR. THEY INCLUDE FIXING THE CITY’S BUDGET, POURING MORE RESOURCES INTO PUBLIC SAFETY, AND HIS FLEET OF VEHICLES, GROWING AND MARKETING THE CITY GLOBALLY IS ALSO A MAJOR OBJECTIVE, AND PROVIDING AFFORDABLE HOUSING IN EVERY NEIGHBORHOOD. I WANT YOU ALL TO BE PROUD TO BE A PITTSBURGHER, AND I WANT YOU TO BELIEVE IN OUR CITY AND IN OURSELVES, BECAUSE THERE IS NO DOUBT IN OUR MINDS THAT OUR BEST DAYS ARE AHEAD. THANK YOU VERY MUCH, PITTSBURGH. NOW, MAYOR O’CONNOR SAYS THE FIRST BIG OPPORTUNITY TO MARKET THE CITY GLOBALLY IS DURING THE NFL DRAFT IN THE SPRING. MORE HIGHLIGHTS FROM HIS INAUGURATION CEREMONY STRAIGHT AHEAD IN THE NEXT HOUR. FOR NOW, COVERING ALLEGHENY COUNTY IN PITTSBURGH’S OAKLAND NEIGHBORHOOD. SHELDON INGRAM PITTSBURGH’S ACTION NEWS FOUR. SHELDON, THANKS. YES, HE’S GOING TO BE A BUSY GUY. AND NOW, 20 YEARS LATER, COREY O’CONNOR FOLLOWS IN THE FOOTSTEPS OF HIS LATE FATHER. BOB O’CONNOR SERVED AS PITTSBURGH’S MAYOR IN 2006. HE DIED FOLLOWING A BATTLE WITH CANCER JUST NINE MONTHS INTO HIS TERM AS MAYOR. AFTER SERVING MORE THAN TEN YEARS ON PITTSBURGH’S CITY COUNCIL. WELL, COMING UP AT 515, OUR PITTSBURGH INAUGURATION TEAM COVERAGE DOES CONTINUE. WE’VE GOT REPORTER MARCIE CIPRIANI SPEAKING WITH THE NEW PITTSBURGH CITY COUNCIL MEMBER SWORN INTO OFFICE TODAY FOR 44. SNAP. GOOD. HOLD. THE KICK IS NO GOOD AND IS WIDE RIGHT. AND THE STEELERS ARE THE CHAMPIONS OF THE NORTH. I STILL CAN’T BELIEVE IT. I KNOW IT WAS THE MOMENT THAT KEPT THE STEELERS SEASON ALIVE. A FIELD GOAL TO WIN THE GAME GOES WIDE RIGHT AND THE BLACK AND GOLD ARE IN THE PLAYOFFS. THIS WILL BE THE FIRST PLAYOFF GAME IN PITTSBURGH IN FIVE YEARS. AND THEY WILL HAVE TO PLAY THE HOUSTON TEXANS, WHO HAVE WON NINE GAMES IN A ROW. THAT’S RIGHT. AND BUT THE TEAM IS RELISHING THE OPPORTUNITY TO PLAY JANUARY FOOTBALL, MY FRIENDS. SPORTS REPORTER ASHLEY JOINS US LIVE OUTSIDE ACRISURE STADIUM. I MEAN, ASHLEY, WE JUST KEEP SAYING IT. WHAT A GAME LAST NIGHT. GUYS, WHAT A GAME. INDEED. JANUARY FOOTBALL. AND I’LL TELL YOU WHAT IT DOESN’T FEEL LIKE JANUARY FOOTBALL RIGHT NOW. IT IS KIND OF NICE OUT. IT’S GOING TO GET CHILLIER YOU KNOW AS THE NIGHT GOES ON. BUT WE’LL SEE WHAT THE WEATHER HAS IN STORE FOR MONDAY NIGHT. ONE WEEK FROM TODAY RIGHT HERE ON WTAE CHANNEL 4. NOW OF COURSE, WITH THAT WIN LAST NIGHT AGAINST THE RAVENS, THE STEELERS CLINCHED A HOME PLAYOFF GAME RIGHT HERE AT ACRISURE STADIUM. AND WE HEADED DOWN TO THE LOCKER ROOM TODAY ON THE SOUTH SIDE. AND LET ME TELL YOU, IT WAS A PRETTY LIVELY CREW DOWN THERE INSIDE THAT STEELERS LOCKER ROOM TODAY. GUYS WE’RE HYPING EACH OTHER UP. EVEN GETTING COMPETITIVE WITH ONE OF THOSE OVER THE DOOR BASKETBALL HOOPS. YEAH YOU KNOW THE ONES DEFINITELY GOOD ENERGY CONFIDENCE AND BELIEF HEADING INTO THEIR GAME NEXT WEEK AGAINST THE TEXANS. THEY’LL ALSO BE GETTING OFFENSIVE WEAPON DK METCALF BACK. METCALF OF COURSE, MISSED THE LAST TWO GAMES AFTER AN ALTERCATION WITH A FAN IN DETROIT. HE SPOKE TO THE MEDIA FOR THE FIRST TIME TODAY. SINCE THAT INCIDENT, HE WAS ASKED MULTIPLE TIMES IF HE COULD EXPLAIN WHAT HAPPENED OR IF HE WANTED TO CLARIFY ANYTHING. HE SAID HE COULDN’T SAY ANYTHING ABOUT THE TOPIC. HERE’S SOME OF THAT EXCHANGE. NOTHING LIKE AS FAR AS THE APPEALS AND TALKING WITH THE NFL. JUST KIND OF CAN YOU WALK US THROUGH THAT PROCESS? I CAN WALK YOU OUT THROUGH NOTHING THAT HAPPENED. WERE YOU SURPRISED THAT THE APPEAL WAS UPHELD AND DIDN’T GO THE OTHER WAY? YEAH, BUT THAT’S ALL I CAN SAY. I CAN’T SAY NOTHING ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED. I FEEL FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR MY ACTIONS, AND, YOU KNOW, THAT’S IT. BUT, YOU KNOW, I GOT THE UTMOST RESPECT AND CONFIDENCE IN MY TEAMMATES FOR STILL GOING OUT THERE AND PERFORMING TO THE BEST OF THEIR ABILITIES. NOW, DK DID SAY HE WATCHED THE GAME LAST NIGHT FROM HIS HOUSE. HE CALLED IT A ROLLER COASTER GAME, SAYING SOMETIMES HE COULDN’T EVEN WATCH CERTAIN MOMENTS BECAUSE OF THAT ANXIETY. BUT WHEN CALVIN AUSTIN SCORED THAT FINAL TOUCHDOWN, HE SAID HE JUMPED UP. HE PUT HIS CLOTHES ON AND MADE HIS WAY DOWN TO ACRISURE STADIUM. HE’S GRATEFUL THAT THE GUYS GOT THE WIN AND GAVE HIM THE CHANCE TO COME BACK FOR ONE MORE GAME, AT LEAST LIVE ON THE NORTH SHORE TONIGHT. ASHLEY. OATES, PITTSBURGH’S ACTION SPORTS A NEW SEASON FOR DK AND THE STEELERS. ASHLEY THANK YOU. NOW MANY OF YOU HAVE BEEN TALKING ABOUT THIS VIDEO. HE’S THE HOLY MAN ALL STEELER NATION IS TALKING ABOUT. TONIGHT WE LEARNED THAT THIS PRIEST WHO BLESSED THE FIELD AT ARKANSAS STADIUM LAST NIGHT WAS FATHER MAXIMILLIAN MAXWELL, A PRIEST AT SAINT VINCENT COLLEGE. THAT’S WHERE WE FIND WESTMORELAND BUREAU REPORTER ED DIORIO TONIGHT. SO, ED, YOU SPOKE TO FATHER MAX, AS HE’S KNOWN BRIEFLY TODAY. WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO SAY ABOUT ALL OF THIS? WELL, ANDREW, IN OUR SHORT CONVERSATION, HE TOLD ME THAT HE DIDN’T WANT TO BE INTERVIEWED BECAUSE ALL OF THE ATTENTION THAT HE’S GETTING AFTER LAST NIGHT’S THRILLER, HE WANTS ALL OF THAT ATTENTION AND FOCUS TO GO. AND TOWARDS MONDAY NIGHT’S PLAYOFF GAME AGAINST THE TEXANS AND THAT GAME YOU CAN FIND RIGHT HERE ON WTAE CHANNEL 4. COM MONDAY. BUT I ALSO TALKED TO THE HEAD OF OUTDOOR ATHLETIC FACILITIES FOR SAINT VINCENT COLLEGE, AND HE TOLD ME THAT HE SEES FATHER MAX JUST ABOUT EVERY DAY AND SEES HIM BLESS THEIR FACILITIES EVERY DAY. SO LAST NIGHT, THE STAKES OF THE GAME, IT DIDN’T AFFECT FATHER MAX’S MESSAGE OR PRAYERS FOR THE ATHLETES. HE DOES THAT STADIUM. HE DOES THAT AT SAINT VINCENT COLLEGE. HE WOULD DO IT AT A, YOU KNOW, LOCAL YOUTH LITTLE LEAGUE FIELD, FOOTBALL FIELD, ANYWHERE. THAT’S JUST WHO HE IS. FATHER MAX ALSO TOLD ME THAT SAINT VINCENT HAS BEEN BLESSING THE FIELD AT ACRISURE STADIUM SINCE IT OPENED IN 2001. USUALLY, SAINT VINCENT PRESIDENT FATHER PAUL TAYLOR BLESSES THE FIELD. BUT LAST NIGHT, FATHER MAX FOUND HIMSELF WITH THAT TASK, AND IT’S SOMETHING THAT HE’S DONE FOR EVERY ATHLETIC FACILITY ON SAINT VINCENT’S CAMPUS FOR YEARS. AND THAT’S WHY THOSE WHO WORK ON CAMPUS WITH FATHER MAX, WELL, THEY’RE NOT SURPRISED ONE BIT BY WHAT HAPPENED LAST NIGHT AND ALL THE ATTENTION THAT’S COMING AFTER IT. HE WANTS TO SEE OTHER PEOPLE SUCCEED. HE WANTS TO DO EVERYTHING HE DOES FOR THE BENEFIT OF OTHERS. AND LAST NIGHT WAS JUST A PERFECT EXAMPLE OF WHAT WE GET TO EXPERIENCE EVERY DAY HERE AT SAINT VINCENT WITH FATHER MAX. NOW, WHILE FATHER MAX DIDN’T TALK TO US ON CAMERA, SAINT VINCENT COLLEGE HAS RELEASED A STATEMENT ABOUT ALL OF THE ATTENTION THEY’RE GETTING SURROUNDING LAST NIGHT’S WIN. YOU’LL SEE PART OF THAT STATEMENT IN THE FULL REPORT COMING UP AT 6:00, COVERING WESTMORELAND COUNTY AT SAINT VINCENT COLLEGE AT DIORIO, PITTSBURGH’S ACTION NEWS FOUR. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. NOW LET’S TURN TO PITTSBURGH’S ACTION. WHETHER CHILE, PITTSBURGH WEEKEND. BUT A THAW IS UNDERWAY RIGHT NOW. WE’RE JOINED BY OUR CHIEF METEOROLOGIST, MIKE HARVEY. WITH YOUR CERTIFIED MOST ACCURATE FORECAST. MIKE. 40S TODAY, 50S AHEAD, MAYBE EVEN 60S. SOME LOCATIONS WILL SEE 60 DEGREES BY THE END OF THE WEEK. TODAY WE HIT A HIGH TEMPERATURE OF 47 DEGREES. WE’VE SETTLED BACK TO 46 DEGREES. AND BOY, I’LL TELL YOU, IF YOU’RE OUTSIDE. BEAUTIFUL SUNSET OUT THERE THIS EVENING AS WE GO INTO TOMORROW AGAIN, WE’LL HAVE TEMPERATURES IN THE 40S, A LITTLE WARMER, AND THE UPPER 40S. SOME PLACES WILL BE HITTING 50 DEGREES FOR TOMORROW, SO IT WILL BE A WARM DAY. A LOT MORE SNOW MELT AS WE GO THROUGH THE DAY. AS WE TAKE A LOOK AT THE MORNING, WE WILL HAVE SOME CLOUDS THAT WILL MOVE IN AND LATER IN THE DAY WE’LL JUST HAVE SOME LIGHT, SCATTERED RAIN SHOWERS THAT WILL JOIN US. WON’T AMOUNT TO MUCH, BUT STILL MAY NEED THE WINDSHIELD WIPER WHEN YOU ARE COMING HOME. AND YOU CAN SEE AS FAR AS CHANCES FOR RAIN AS WE HEAD THROUGH TUESDAY AS OUR SECOND BEST CHANCE, WE GO TOWARDS THE END OF THE WEEK. FRIDAY. THAT IS OUR NEXT BEST CHANCE OF RAIN THAT WE WILL BE SEEING AS WE HEAD THROUGH THE WEEK. WE’LL HAVE MORE ON WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT AS WE HEAD INTO THE WEEKEND. THAT’S COMING UP IN JUST A FEW MINUTES. OKAY, MIKE. THANK YOU. THE PENNSYLVANIA PUBLIC UTILITY COMMISSION RELEASED ITS FINAL REPORT IN THE AFTERMATH OF THE UNPRECEDENTED STORM THAT HIT OUR AREA LAST APRIL. THE COMMISSION EXAMINED THE PREPARATION AND THE STORM RESPONSE FROM UTILITIES AND OUTLINED RECOMMENDATIONS TO STRENGTHEN FUTURE RESPONSE. NOW, IT FINDS THAT PREPARATION FROM POWER COMPANIES WAS, QUOTE, GENERALLY APPROPRIATE BASED ON FORECASTS. BUT THAT REPORT SAYS COMPANIES SHOULD CONTINUE TO IMPROVE FORECASTING AND OUTAGE PREDICTION MODELING. THE COMMISSION’S CENTRAL RECOMMENDATION IS THE REESTABLISHMENT OF A STATEWIDE ELECTRIC DISTRIBUTION COMPANY, STORM BEST PRACTICES GROUP, THAT FOCUSES ON TRANSLATING LESSONS LEARNED INTO MEASURABLE IMPROVEMENTS. SO THAT INCLUDES PRIORITIZING THINGS LIKE PLANNING AND COORDINATION, THE TIME OF RESTORATION AND COMMUNICATIONS. THE REPORT ALSO CALLS TO STRENGTHEN CALL CENTER PERFORMANCE AND CONTINUE INVESTING IN INFRASTRUCTURE. NOW TO THE STORY. THE WHOLE WORLD IS PAYING ATTENTION TO TONIGHT. FORMER VENEZUELAN PRESIDENT NICOLAS MADURO AND HIS WIFE PLEADED NOT GUILTY TO A U.S. FEDERAL JUDGE. THEY HAVE BEEN BROUGHT TO THE U.S. TO FACE CHARGES RELATED TO NARCO TERRORISM. OUR WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT CHRISTOPHER SALAS, OUTSIDE A NEW YORK FEDERAL COURTHOUSE, BREAKING DOWN WHAT HAPPENED INSIDE IN THIS NEW YORK CITY FEDERAL COURTHOUSE TODAY, NICOLAS MADURO TOOK EXTENSIVE NOTES. HE WISHED REPORTERS A HAPPY NEW YEAR, AND HE PLEADED HIS INNOCENCE. NOW, THIS WAS AN ARRAIGNMENT. SO IT WAS LARGELY PROCEDURAL, WHICH MEANS THERE WEREN’T LENGTHY LEGAL ARGUMENTS MADE TODAY. BUT THE FORMER VENEZUELAN LEADER MADE IT CLEAR HE PLANNED ON FIGHTING THE ACCUSATIONS. FORMER VENEZUELAN LEADER NICOLAS MADURO APPEARED IN A U.S. COURTROOM FOR THE FIRST TIME ALONGSIDE HIS WIFE, WHO HAD BANDAGES ON HER FACE. HER ATTORNEY SAID SHE SUFFERED INJURIES DURING THEIR DRAMATIC CAPTURE OVER THE WEEKEND. BOTH PLEADED NOT GUILTY TO NARCO TERRORISM, DRUG TRAFFICKING AND WEAPONS CHARGES. MADURO SAID IN COURT, QUOTE, I’M INNOCENT. I AM NOT GUILTY. I AM A DECENT MAN. THE PRESIDENT OF MY COUNTRY. IN COURT PAPERS, U.S. PROSECUTORS DISPUTED THAT CLAIM, ALLEGING MADURO RAN AN ILLEGITIMATE GOVERNMENT FUELED BY A DRUG TRAFFICKING OPERATION THAT SENT LARGE AMOUNTS OF COCAINE TO THE UNITED STATES. TENSIONS BOILED OVER AS MADURO’S HEARING ENDED. A MAN STOOD UP AND SHOUTED THAT HE’S AN ILLEGITIMATE PRESIDENT, WHICH MADURO FIRED BACK. HE WAS KIDNAPED AND A PRISONER OF WAR. WE MUST TAKE TO THE STREETS THOSE SAME DIVISIONS PLAYED OUT ON THE STREET OUTSIDE THE COURTHOUSE, WITH DUELING DEMONSTRATIONS, INCLUDING THOSE DEMANDING MADURO’S RELEASE. THE U.S. HAS NOT HAD AN INTEREST OF THE VENEZUELAN PEOPLE IN MIND. IT JUST WANTS THE OIL. IT WANTS THE NATURAL RESOURCES. WHILE OTHERS PRAISED HIS PROSECUTION. TALK ABOUT THE FEELING RIGHT NOW. VERY HAPPY, VERY PLEASED BECAUSE MADURO IS FINALLY FACING JUSTICE AFTER CREATING THE LARGEST HUMANITARIAN CRISIS IN THE HEMISPHERE, AND AFTER MAKING US SUFFER FOR SO MANY, FOR SO MANY YEARS, BOTH MADURO AND HIS WIFE AGREED TO REMAIN DETAINED. FOR NOW. THE JUDGE ORDERED THE TWO TO BE BACK IN THIS COURTHOUSE I
