The most watched news in Western Washington, King 5 News, starts now.
It's been one year since she mysteriously disappeared.
Tonight, authorities canvassed Lindsay Baum's hometown, searching for clues, as friends
and family cling to the hope that she'll be found.
I'm gonna be thinking about you every second while you're gone, and I'm not gonna give
up on you.
Meanwhile, investigators release new surveillance video in the case, as the search for Lindsay
goes on.
And tonight, one of the men seen in that surveillance video stepped forward.
King 5's Jim Foreman has more on that development and the renewed effort to find Lindsay one
year after she disappeared.
Those leading the investigation say tonight is about recreating a snapshot in time.
That night a year ago, Lindsay left a friend's house headed for home and never made it.
You weren't here this time a year ago, were you?
Okay.
Thank you so much for your help.
A big law enforcement presence descends on the small town of McCleary tonight, authorities
hoping to shake loose new clues about the disappearance of Lindsay Baum.
And now just hours after we first aired this newly released surveillance video from a gas
station on Lindsay's path home, the man driving that white pickup truck has come forward.
He just really didn't recall that he'd even been in McCleary on that date until he saw
the video, so that mystery's been solved.
So it sort of illustrates the point that there are people out there, local people in fact,
who have been to McCleary on June 26, 2009 and hadn't come forward yet, either because
they totally forgot that they'd come through town that day or they just haven't for some
reason gotten the message that we want to talk to them.
So it just reiterates the fact that we want to talk to anybody who was in McCleary on
June 26.
Look closely at the top of your screen.
Authorities are still trying to identify who was in that Honda Ridgeline.
If Lindsay sees this, I want her to know that I'm going to still be here for you when you
come back.
It's been a long year for Michaela Campin, one of the last people to see Lindsay.
Her life forever changed.
And I'm going to be thinking about you every second while you're gone.
And I'm not going to give up on you.
As the evening moves on, it's clear these roadblocks are a long shot.
But authorities know someone in one of the cars or trucks they stopped tonight may have
that piece of information that solves this case.
In McCleary, I'm Jim Forman, King 5 News.
For the first time, the parents of Kyron Horman are describing what their life has been like
since their son disappeared three weeks ago.
It's the worst hell a parent could ever feel.
His mother, Desiree Young, and her ex-husband, Kane Horman, say they've avoided cameras up
until now because they're shy, but they've been working closely with investigators and
are doing what they can to stay positive.
I look at tons of pictures and videos of Kyron.
It helps me get by every day.
We stay positive and don't think about the bad things because we just can't go there.
Seven-year-old Kyron was last seen at his Portland Elementary School.
Former Vice President Dick Cheney will spend the weekend at a Washington, D.C. hospital.
A spokesperson says Cheney was admitted to George Washington University Hospital after
experiencing discomfort.
Doctors have not said why Cheney was admitted, but he does have a history of heart trouble.
Cheney was most recently hospitalized in February after suffering a minor heart attack.
More than 40,000 drivers are arrested every year in Washington state for drunk driving.
One Snohomish County man has a plan to toughen state laws.
News 5's Kyle Moore is live in Seattle with One Man's Crusade to stamp out drunk driving
on Washington's roads.
Kyle?
The big question is how many DUIs are too many?
Conrad Thompson says current state laws are too lax and he has the backing of families
who lost their loved ones to drunk driving.
You really took something special from me, but I don't think you'll ever understand the
pain my whole family is going through.
You can see it on their faces.
The Doomlau family knows first hand the high cost of drunk driving.
On December 6th in Seattle's Belltown neighborhood, Jerome Doomlau was run down and killed by
drunk driver Eric Murillo.
To hold the defendant fully accountable for the tragedy he caused on that night.
A judge sentenced Murillo to the maximum sentence of four and a half years behind bars.
Murillo's sentence will never come close to the life sentence we are facing, the pain
of losing someone we love so dearly.
We've got to get him before they get in the car.
As head of the Snohomish County Target Zero Task Force, Conrad Thompson is pushing for
stiffer DUI laws, especially for repeat offenders like Alexander Petter.
This is the third DUI arrest for the Kirkland man who is charged with killing two high school
students from Federal Way along I-5 three days before their graduation.
Thompson wants a state mandated and standardized assessment process for drunk drivers, a program
he says would root out repeat offenders and divert them to rehab instead of an eight hour
alcohol information school.
If a person has a substance abuse problem and they're misdiagnosed, I can almost guarantee
that they're going to be back behind the wheel, under the influence, posing a threat.
A new state law did allow a judge today to find William Gorsika guilty of felony drunk
driving instead of a lesser misdemeanor charge, but this is Gorsika's tenth DUI conviction.
It shows it's not working.
And that's why Thompson is trying to encourage state senators to follow his plan already
and two have expressed interest.
And he says the states of Illinois, Oregon, and also Tennessee are already following his
plan.
Reporting live in Seattle, Kyle Moore, King 5 News.
Thank you, Kyle.
People in two Seattle neighborhoods will notice something different tonight.
More police on patrol.
It's part of the city's new late night public safety initiative.
The plan calls for more uniformed police in Belltown and Pioneer Square.
The program will run through September and then be reviewed by the city.
The safety patrols in response to two Belltown shootings that happened within weeks of each
other.
A van with advertisements about Islam was found smeared with feces.
Local authorities and the FBI are investigating it as a possible hate crime.
The van's owner had it parked outside the Islamic Center of Eastside in Bellevue yesterday
when he noticed the vandalism and reported it.
A Tacoma man is arrested for child rape after he donates a cell phone to Goodwill filled
with child porn.
Police say the phone had pictures and video of 32-year-old Michael Comte molesting a three-year-old
girl.
The victim's mother says Comte babysat for her daughter on at least one occasion.
A King 5 exclusive, a road construction mistake that will cost taxpayers more than a million
dollars to fix.
We learned about this from a King 5 viewer.
Trisha Manning-Smith has a look at this very expensive mistake.
If you drive I-5 through Tacoma, you know the place.
It's really an eye sore and it's really a pain.
The interchange where I-5 meets State Route 16 is one of Pierce County's worst bottlenecks.
Now it's also one of the DOT's worst road construction mistakes.
It's an air that got built and constructed before we caught it.
That doesn't happen very often.
I can't remember the last time in my career of 27 years we actually built something that
had to be partially torn down.
On eastbound 16, contractors built the Sprague ramp perfectly following DOT engineer specifications.
But that design was wrong.
It was a human error and it wasn't caught.
Whose fault is it?
It's DOT.
Deep down it's our mistake.
We made the mistake.
We designed the job with a ramp that was not compatible with the next phase and we're responsible
for that.
Crews built this section of roadway for two lanes of traffic when they actually needed
three lanes.
The DOT's regional administrator says at that point in the planning process, engineers did
not foresee that the ramp would be too small for a future phase of the project.
It wasn't until the concrete was poured and the ramp 90% finished that someone raised
a question.
This is an expensive mistake.
Yes it is.
This is a mistake that actually didn't get caught until after it was built.
Now crews are ripping up that off ramp.
The DOT says tax dollars from a built-in contingency fund will ultimately pay for the fix.
I don't like it.
I don't like it at all.
It always costs the taxpayers and it's a nuisance, but what can you do about it?
Trisha Manning Smith, King 5 News.
The DOT says that contingency fund is already built into the budget for this project to
help cover unforeseen problems.
The administrator says this mistake will not delay the project.
BP says it's making progress on drilling a relief well that should stem the flow of
this oil into the Gulf of Mexico.
The company says the well should be ready to go by mid-August.
The relief well will intersect with the ruptured well.
Once that's completed, BP plans to pump heavy drilling mud into the oil flow and plug it
with cement.
There's concern tonight about a tropical depression brewing in the Atlantic Ocean and what it
would do to the oil leak and the Gulf Coast if it gets bigger.
Lisa Vance-Ice is tracking that system.
What do we know so far, Lisa?
Well, Lori, I'll show you exactly where that tropical depression is spinning in the Western
Caribbean and right now still offshore, but I want to show you the track of how we expect
this system to move.
It's affectionately labeled Tropical Depression 1.
It's the first actual storm of the Atlantic season.
So Tropical Depression 1 now about 255 miles east-southeast of Belize City.
It continues to move to the west and northwest at about 9 or 10 miles per hour, so pretty
slow moving.
Wind sustained around 35 miles per hour, gusts around 46, and we expect it to continue to
push on closer to the Yucatan Peninsula sometime late in the day tomorrow, now potentially
dropping about 4 to 8 inches of rain over the peninsula.
So something we'll be keeping an eye on as far as the rainfall and what these winds do.
It'll continue to track on up closer to the Gulf Coast states by the beginning of next
week.
Obviously a system that a lot of eyeballs will be on, especially as we head into Monday
and Tuesday.
Lori?
Okay, thank you, Lisa.
Yeah.
Well, plan ahead this weekend.
The Rock and Roll Marathon tomorrow will shut down streets and highways in Seattle.

King 5 News is brought to you in part by your Western Washington Toyota dealers.
Initiative ballots are due in one week and sponsors are doing everything to get signatures.
The Secretary of State's office says some are making a sneaky ballot switch.
People think they're signing one petition when it's actually one for a different cause.
Then there are professional petitioners who can get up to $3 a signature if the initiative
makes it to the ballot.
This year there is whatever, seven or eight petitions.
Some people carry one, some people carry numerous petitions.
The Secretary of State's office says legally it's up to the signer to read what they're
signing.
A lawsuit is filed to stop furloughs, which begin next month in our state.
The Washington Federation of State Employees filed a lawsuit in Thurston County Superior
Court.
Only about 25 to 30 percent of state employees are affected by the planned furloughs after
accounting for a long list of exemptions.
The new iPhone is making some customers irate.
The iPhone 4 went on sale just yesterday, but already customers are complaining about
operating issues and signal loss.
The biggest problem, an issue with the antenna that wraps around the device in this silver
bar.
The phone tends to lose its signal when you hold it in your hand.
Apple's response is don't hold it that way.
In my estimation that is the wrong way to respond.
By 2.30 this afternoon the U Village Apple Store was completely sold out of every iPhone
in stock.
From sunny and warm, a change in the weather.
Find out if we're in for a cool weekend.
Lisa Van Sise has the forecast.
We talked earlier about all the outdoor activities and fun things planned for the weekend.
We demand a summer weekend.
I can deliver.
I have some good news for the weekend forecast.
Overall, a pretty decent couple of days in our future.
While we were talking about the cloud cover this evening that many of us saw, we did have
some sunny spots.
I want to show you a capture that I took from our Bellingham Tower can.
This is about 3.30 this afternoon.
Granted, there are some clouds in the picture, but we did see some blue skies up around the
north interior and north sound today.
It wasn't a completely cloudy day, but many of us around downtown Seattle and Bellevue
for that matter saw scenes like this one, mainly overcast skies.
Just before sunset, we finally watched that cloud cover break apart.
Made it to 64 degrees at SeaTac, well below normal.
We had that onshore flow today that kept the clouds with us.
We didn't see much sun, so the temperatures stayed pretty cool.
Some of our cooler locations, though, on Schoolnet.
Rochester, 58 degrees was your high west point.
The same for you.
And Woodby Island, 59 degrees.
Areas closer to the water, even cooler readings there.
Air quality is good, and as for the pollen count, trees and grasses low and weeds moderate.
So allergies for some folks kicking up, I would imagine.
Here's the setup as we head into the overnight hours and into the day tomorrow.
We have high pressure offshore.
That's going to continue to build in and bring us more sun.
However, low pressure we have to the east of us is really helping to initiate that onshore
flow.
What that means for us, areas of clouds tonight, we'll see a little bit of that low cloudiness
as we kick things off tomorrow and then plenty of afternoon sun.
So the forecast for the overnight hours around the north interior, partly cloudy conditions,
upper forties to low fifties for overnight low temperatures and tomorrow.
Not too bad of a day after the low clouds burn off tomorrow will be mainly in the low
seventies up and down the I-5 corridor, a little bit cooler closer to the water.
But again, the bottom line here is plenty of afternoon sun, partly cloudy, dry overnight
around the central and south sound upper forties and low fifties.
Even those morning low clouds burning off and giving us partly to mostly sunny conditions
by the afternoon low seventies.
If you're headed to the rock and roll marathon in Seattle, you can expect a high by late
afternoon in the low seventies.
Taste of Tacoma, low seventies and afternoon sun for you out at the coast.
Things just a little bit cloudier here.
Going to be a dry one for you low to mid sixties, but clouds will hang on just a little tougher
here.
As for your marine forecast overnight, mainly light winds, but we do have a small craft
advisory through the straight for the central and east waters of the straight hoop fest
kicking off in the Spokane Valley tomorrow.
Upper seventies, mostly sunny.
Bring the sunscreen.
We'll see more sun in the Cascades tomorrow, mid fifties to the upper sixties for highs
and our five day forecast does bring some showers back for Sunday.
So Saturday, the better of the two weekend days, we'll still see the sun on Sunday, but
a better chance for showers.
Those will decrease on Monday.
Dry one for us Tuesday and then cooler.
Little wetter for the middle of the week.
We'll talk about that in the plus five forecast here in just a bit.
Okay, Lisa, thanks.
Thank you, Lisa.
Exactly one year ago, music fans went silent as they learned the king of pop had died.

A local business owner is taking legal action to hang up on robocalls he says have been
ringing him for a decade.
You may be helping the environment, but a warning about your health when it comes to

Lot has changed in the last 50 years.
TVs have gotten bigger.
Computers have gotten smaller.
One thing hasn't changed.
Toyota is still Toyota.
Still the one for the best value.
Still the best dependability.
Still the best fuel efficiency.
Now during Toyota's Still the Best sales event, get a new 2011 Camry with 0% financing for

The most watched news in Western Washington, King 5 News at 1030 starts now.
Should federal robocall laws be strengthened?
That's what a local attorney is asking after one of his clients received calls for more
than a decade.
Here's King 5's Chris Daniels.
Imagine your phone ringing day after day, night after night when you least expect it
and a recorded voice is on the line.
Your vehicle is subject to a recall.
One in the morning or 2.30 in the morning or whatever.
Dick Barron has dealt with it for more than 10 years.
Companies wanting to loan you money.
The small business owner says he's been harassed by phone, fax and email with financial and
other pitches.
I think it ought to be prevented.
Attorney Rob Williamson represents Barron and six other people in different cases now
working their way through U.S. Federal Court.
And he argues state law should preempt federal statutes for robocalls which allow banks,
health care providers, charities and political organizations to dial you up.
Our state law is different.
It's stricter.
The Washington State Attorney General's Office has agreed in the past, arguing in court
filings, the state law says no organization can robocall without the consumer's permission.
But yet Williamson says certain companies have dismissed it.
Well sometimes they just ignore the law.
Barron is hoping after settling with two companies which robocalled him, it will be enough to
end his decade of disturbances.
I think it's kind of unfair that we have to be exposed.
Chris Daniels, King 5 News.
The federal law does issue severe fines for illegal robocalls of up to $16,000 a call.
By the way, the National Do Not Call Registry does not protect businesses and fax machines
from receiving robocalls.
The Grace Harbor Sheriff's Department has found a man wanted for questioning in the Lindsay
Baum case.
The man seen in a white pickup truck and then inside the Mini Mart has stepped forward.
Police are still looking for a man spotted filling up his black pickup at a gas station
the day Baum disappeared.
The men are not considered suspects, but they were in McCleary around the time Lindsay disappeared.
Former Vice President Dick Cheney is in the hospital tonight.
He was admitted for some tests after going to the doctors because of discomfort.
The 69-year-old has a long history of heart trouble, but it's not clear if his discomfort

A road construction mistake will cost taxpayers nearly a million dollars to fix.
The problem is in Tacoma at the interchange where I-5 meets Highway 16, a ramp was built
wrong.
It wasn't until the concrete was poured and the ramp 90 percent complete that someone
discovered the problem.
The DOT says that a contingency fund is already built into the budget for this project to
help cover unforeseen problems.
Preparations are underway to recognize a Spokane Valley Marine killed in Afghanistan this week.
23-year-old Josh Dumas' family says he was killed by an improvised explosive device Tuesday.
A memorial service will be held Monday in North Carolina where the Marine was stationed.
His body will then be flown to Fairchild Air Force Base in Spokane.
Dumas was married with a son on the way.
A fake health inspector is targeting local restaurants and not for a free lunch, rather
personal information that could lead to identity theft.
One restaurant owner reported the caller threatened to find their business $5,000 unless they
provided personal information over the telephone.
Another owner we spoke with says she caught on to the scam quickly.
Usually they announce themselves, the county and who they are.
They didn't announce a name.
So far no one has fallen for the scam, but health inspectors remind businesses that appointments
are never made over the phone and they're almost always unannounced when they arrive
at restaurants for inspections.
The Snohomish Health District reports at least seven restaurants in the county have been
targeted by the scam.
If you're not careful, helping the environment could be harmful to your health.
Reusable grocery bags can harbor dangerous bacteria if they're not cleaned regularly.
Scientists with the University of Arizona randomly tested dozens of reusable grocery
bags and found just over half had E. coli and other contaminants inside.
It's the E. coli, it's the salmonella.
These are the ones that are perhaps the most common ones that will affect people, causing
most often a gastroenteritis and it can become even more serious.
The best advice?
Wash your bags, especially if you carry meat in them.
97% of the people researchers interviewed had never washed their bags.
Yesterday Seattle Mayor Mike McGinn announced his pick for police chief, but he told me
today he knew interim chief John Diaz was his choice at a press conference on Tuesday.
And you praised him during that press conference.
Did you know at that time that he was your choice?
Did he know that he was your choice?
I knew he didn't.
When did he know?
We sat down after that press conference.
You can hear more from the mayor about his chief appointee this Sunday night on King

There's a serial recall underway after reports of a strange smell coming from the boxes.
Kellogg is recalling 28 million boxes of Apple Jacks, corn pops, Froot Loops and Honey Smack
cereal.
Customers have complained about a waxy smell and flavor coming from the package liners.
Kellogg's still trying to figure out which material in the liners is causing the problem.
Toyota's telling dealerships to stop selling one of their Lexus hybrids and is issuing
a recall.
Tests found that fuel leaked during a rear impact crash test on the 2010 HS250H sedan.
The recall includes 17,000 vehicles.
Owners will soon be notified about the recall, but Toyota says it has no fix yet.
Its own tests have not recreated the issue.

Starbucks is joining a new trend, turning baristas into bartenders.
Soon its Capitol Hill store will start serving beer and wine.
It's been a winning combination for the Richmond Beach Coffee Company in Shoreline and the
909 Coffee and Wine Bar in Burien.
Now the neighborhood coffee shops face new competition.
I guess if they want to sell it, they can sell it.
We still have better coffee than they do.
Business has been really good.
I mean better than I ever hoped it would be.
I think people are kind of into the smaller shops right now, the neighborhood shops.
Starbucks Capitol Hill store will undergo renovations in July and start selling beer
and wine this September.
Wine drinkers will benefit from fierce competition among some northwest wineries.
Many Oregon wineries are starting to produce lower-priced Pinot Noir wines.
The Willamette Valley has become so renowned for the grape, it has created a winery boom.
The wineries are forced to adjust their prices to stay afloat.
Oregon wine has to be approachable.
And we kind of were on this ride for about 10 years where we almost became unapproachable.
We were pricing ourselves out of the market.
Stone Wolf Vineyards is now producing a Pinot for about $7 called Rascal.

It's not unusual for an athlete to suffer concussion, and it happens to girls just as
often as boys.
Find out, though, why it could be more dangerous.
And Lisa Van Sice is back with an update on the weather.
Boys aren't the only ones who suffer from sports-related concussions.
Experts say young women are just as susceptible to suffer from them, and their symptoms tend
to last longer.
Julia Rice is a soccer player.
As she watches her schoolmates play lacrosse, she understands the dangers of a concussion.
I went up for a header, and I collided with one of the defenders, and I tumbled.
I rolled on the ground.
But instead of tucking my head, my head hit the back of a turf, and I just remember seeing
black spots, being very disoriented.
She continued playing, which she regrets.
I knew something happened, and so when I got off the field, I felt very nauseous, and I
still wasn't seeing as clearly.
The headache went on for days.
Emotionally, I just felt very introverted and didn't want to talk to anybody.
Common symptoms, but research has found those symptoms may last longer in girls, yet treatment
is the same.
It's important to keep an eye on their activities and behaviors immediately afterwards, because
again that can change and fluctuate.
Sometimes it may be hours or days before symptoms appear.
Concussions in girls seem to be on the rise.
We know that girls will report higher incidence of concussion.
That may be because they actually have a higher incidence of concussions, or that they're
more willing to admit when they have one.
Julia took a month off from soccer.
Now she's back on the field and more cautious.
Because I know what could happen, and I don't want it to happen again, so it's not that
I play safe, it's just that I play smart.
Basketball and soccer are the two sports where girls are more likely to get concussions than
boys.
A broken water main creates a big mess in Pittsburgh.
Witnesses say the broken main sent water shooting 50 feet into the air.
The 8-inch break sent debris flying, damaging one home.
Water also flooded basements.

You could call it the catch of the day.
A news crew was working on a story in the Mississippi River when a carp flopped onto
their boat.
It was quite a shock, but the photojournalists managed to keep the camera going.
This was one catch they decided to throw back.
And while it's warm in other parts of the country, they're trying to cool off as best
they can with flops like this.
Nothing like a little belly flop to beat the heat in Denver.
These are actually firefighters competing in the belly flop contest.
Who can make the biggest splash and who can make the biggest impression?
Actually some of the waterpark customers took part trying to win a trip to Mexico.
The firefighter winner won cash for his favorite charity.
One more.
That hurts.
Ouch.
You know.
We saw that.
Kid doing that, you know that that's gotta hurt.
I can feel it just watching them.
No belly flopping weather here just yet.
I think we'll be pretty comfortable as we head into the day tomorrow.
The one thing we're going to keep a close eye on though, the cloud cover overnight because
we do have a partial lunar eclipse to tell you about.
Very early in the morning, 313 is when it starts.
It'll wrap up about 6.
But if you can see the moon, go ahead and take a look.
It'll be about 54% in the shadows.
So something to keep an eye out if in fact you're one of the few up that early on Saturday
morning.
Low 70s is where we'll top out for Saturday.
Good morning clouds, plenty of afternoon sun.
Good luck to all you runners in the Rock and Roll Marathon.
Should be a nice day for a run.
Long run at that.
Showers come back in for Sunday.
They'll wrap up through the day on Monday.
Another dry one for Tuesday.
Then we get a little bit cooler on Wednesday with some showers back in.
Thursday dry, Friday and Saturday showers.
Typical early July weather.
But again, we're keeping our eye on the 4th of July.
And right now, right now, looking dry.
Partly to mostly sunny, low 70s for the 4th and the unofficial start of summer here in
western Washington.
The 5th of July, also partly to mostly sunny in the low 70s.
Though this weekend is one to savor.
Yeah, absolutely.
Shouldn't be too bad.
Sunday a little wet in spots, but nothing terrible.
Let's just get out and enjoy it.
Yeah.
Thanks Lisa.
Still ahead, the storm get revenge against the fever.
And the M's go back in time to face the Brewers.
Chris is next with sports.
In Latin, we make you feel comfortable.
Obviously the vintage uniforms didn't work for the M's.
Yeah, you know, I think the Brewers worked for them back in 82, so it worked for them
again tonight.

Storm with it tonight, 85 to 81.
It felt like a playoff game.
You know, they're a very good team, a very tough team.
The way they play defense, it really makes you work and think.
And the shots they were hitting made us work and think on defense as well.
So we battled.
It was a great game.
I think, like, I don't think we feel like we won.
Like in the feeling in the locker room, everyone's a bit battered and a bit sore and just kind
of happy that obviously we got through it.
He was a tough guy, probably the toughest we've had at home.
Great win tonight, though.

It's a great situation when someone needed them most.
Up next, meet the two teens who are heroes.
They're bona fide heroes, two rent-in teenagers who saved a man from drowning in Shadow Lake.
King 5's Mimi Jung has their story.
Once you got out of the water, you couldn't walk, you just started swimming and then you
just swam directly that way, didn't stop and the rest just kept going.
Dean Kaler and Carly Overhouser watched as a man took a swim in Shadow Lake yesterday,
only to hear him cry for help a few minutes later.
Once he got a bit farther, he started like making noises like he was gasping and stuff,
became swimming and then after a couple of minutes, then he started calling for help.
Because this is a private lake, getting access to where the man was in the water wasn't easy.
It took Dean about 5 to 10 minutes to run a quarter of a mile just to get to a point
where he could pull the man out of the water.
I took off my clothes and I jumped in and I got to him and he was face down doing what
my mom calls the dead man's float.
I was freaking out because he looked completely dead.
Carly says she froze in shock, then started CPR on him, something she just learned at
school six weeks ago.
I got it at my school in a health class just to have the knowledge of doing it in real
life situations and I never thought I would be able to use it.
Sky King shows paramedics taking over and transporting the man to the hospital in critical
condition, still alive after a heroic effort by two teenagers.
It's a good feeling.
It's kind of like I did something worth doing, something that important, something that's
going to affect more than just one person's life.
Mimi Jung, King 5 News.
The fire department says while many lakes can be too cold for swimmers right now, Shadow
Lake is fairly shallow and warm, so it's unclear why the man started struggling in the water.
Before we go, if you ever thought there wasn't enough color and style in sports, here it
is.
Cal Anderson Park tonight in Seattle for the first prom dress rugby tournament.
A playing we will go.
What you're witnessing are members of the Seattle Quake Men's Rugby Team in prom dresses,
dresses either picked out by friends or at local thrift stores.
Not to be outdone, the Seattle Breakers Women's Rugby Team dressed in tuxedos.
One player is quoted as saying, I'm going for anything that's bright, as we just saw.
All this fun is for a cause.
It's to raise money for the Quake Team and Lambert House, which is a gay youth center.
This is just one event for Seattle Pride Weekend that will be occurring all over the city tomorrow
and Sunday.
Real men wear dresses right there.
You know, running in a prom dress is no easy feat.
You gotta give these guys credit.
There we go.
Score one for fashion.
At least they're not wearing high heels.
That's it for us right now.
Thanks for watching.
