Speaker 1 (00:01):
Well, Joord in the mornings Dirty on the thirty, I
like the blazer look on Shannon today.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
You know, I had to dress up for our Thanksgiving
luncheon as you said.
Speaker 3 (00:10):
Looks wonderful. Thank you so wonderful luncheon. I take care
of that. What's going on?
Speaker 2 (00:14):
I'm starting up with a sad story. But a family
from Monroe went to see the Jonas Brothers when they
were in town at Little Caesar's Arena Sunday night, enjoy
the show, come out after the show, realize their car
had been stolen and along with it all of their
kids Christmas gifts that were inside.
Speaker 4 (00:33):
And then this is just kind of sad, hard behind now, like.
Speaker 5 (00:36):
Many hard working parents fiances Arthur Swazing and Apollonia Cizarus
just wanted a night to themselves Sunday, and what better
opportunity than the Jonas Brothers concert at Little Caesar's Arena.
They drove all the way from Monroe for their fun
night out, parked right here on the street on East
Elizabeth around five pm, and got some dinner before heading
down to LCA for the seven thirty show. But when
(00:58):
they came back around eleven thirty pm, nothing.
Speaker 4 (01:01):
Started walking back and then we were like, well, we're
gonna be parking. We're like, we know, we parked over
here somewhere.
Speaker 5 (01:05):
They're twenty fourteen. Olive green Ford Edge had been stolen,
and not only is it the family's only mode of
transportation to work and school for their three children, it's
also the only way Swazing has been able to get
to his doctor's appointments after recently finding out some life
altering news.
Speaker 4 (01:23):
That's my a to B to get to all the
way to Ann Harbor for my health. You know, I
was diagnosed with through now South Carsonoma. I got three kids.
I'm trying to stay on top of everything that I can.
Just it's all I can do.
Speaker 5 (01:36):
In that car was also Cizarre's purse and wallet, a
car seat, and hidden in the trunk the children's Christmas presents.
Speaker 4 (01:44):
Early Christmas shopping. Yeah, trying to get it done and
sneak it from them because you know they want to
be sneaky. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (01:49):
The children had to miss school Monday while mom and
dad stayed with a family member in Detroit as they
continue figuring out next steps.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
I mean, now I can't evening it to work.
Speaker 6 (02:00):
Holleyeno paypers detru police are investigating, and with big crowds
coming down to the city Thursday for all the Thanksgiving
Day festivities, the department wants to remind everyone of some tips.
Speaker 5 (02:12):
Don't leave any valuables in your car and be sure
to lock up, make sure to park in a well
lit area, and if you're parking in a parking lot,
make sure it's a valid one with tenants watching over
your vehicle so no other family has to deal with
something like this right before the holidays.
Speaker 4 (02:32):
I just hope we can find it's terrible.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
If if anybody knows information about this family, or if
that family is listening, please call us. We would love
to try to help you and see what we can
do to hopefully get your car back. But I would
hope that with the amount of cameras that we have
in the city, that there's some ability to be able
to find who did this, and hopefully they have a
heart and they can give them back their Christmas gifts
(02:55):
in their car.
Speaker 3 (02:57):
But a horrible thing.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
And you know they said it'll parking and well lit
lots and all that stuff. The problem is the well
lit lots are fifty bucks or whatever at game time
or showtime for this Jonas Brothers, and there's no affordable
parking in the city. Yesterday, I just wanted to go
and run a couple of errands and going in and
just parking in a lot was going to cost me
(03:18):
twenty five bucks. I mean, it's like ridiculous that we
don't have affordable ability to be able to park around
the city.
Speaker 7 (03:25):
I do believe though, that obviously this is an incredibly
terrible situation, and not that it ever is a good
time for bad stuff to happen. But I truly believe
that sometimes terrible things have to happen in order for
a good thing to happen. And I feel like with
their story being brought out there, this is probably going
to be the best holiday that they could have ever imagined.
It just had to come on the tail off something ridiculous.
Speaker 1 (03:48):
And we're getting information right now about the family. I
know that they set up a GoFundMe page, and we're
going to use that opportunity to be able to also
make some donations. Right now, they've raised twenty one dollars
has been raised for the family and Bianca. We should
probably also make a post too, yeah for this crazy job,
(04:08):
all right, So please and if you are that family
or know that family. Please get in contact with us.
Call Lydia here in the studios. What's going on next door?
Speaker 2 (04:16):
Former First Lady Michelle Obama recently posted excuse me, a
behind the scenes clip from a photoshoot with famed photographer
Annie Libovitz, and the first thing everybody notices is this
why you're gasping? You know what I'm gonna say? Oh,
you don't know who that is?
Speaker 3 (04:31):
I don't.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
Okay, she's like super She's been super famous place for
ever and where? Anyway?
Speaker 3 (04:36):
Who is?
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Everyone notices she is skinnier and toned, more so than normal,
because I think she always looks great. But the post
sparked some social media chatter, with some people speculating and
being very vocal about the fact that, oh, she's got
to using ozembek or govi or zep bound or some
thing to shed some pounds. Obviously, she's not speaking out.
(05:04):
She has not spoken out if that's the case, but
she has talked very openly in the past about dealing
with weight gain during perimenopause menopause and focusing on healthy
habits at this stage in her life, like eating well, exercising,
and staying on top of doctor's visits, we know.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Oh oh, Oh, Mom.
Speaker 3 (05:40):
And Leslie.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
As the holidays shopping season gears up, consumers are planning
to spend less during Black Friday and Cyber Monday than
they did last year for the first time in four years.
Recent survey found that the average consumer is expected to
spend about six hundred and twenty two dollars this weekend,
which is about four percent lower than last year.
Speaker 3 (06:02):
And the big reason I don't think.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
This is surprising to anybody higher living costs or forcing
people to cut back. Everything is so darn expensive. Now
here's the surprise twist to this. Even though people plan
to spend less, eighty two percent they will be shopping
during the upcoming holiday weekend, which is up from last
year's numbers.
Speaker 3 (06:21):
Are there any deals anymore?
Speaker 1 (06:23):
No, I don't feel like there are Last Fridays or
a waste this year.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
It's if you're looking for, you know, electronics, video game
stuff like that, I don't. I don't think as much
as it used to be. I did get a few
things already yesterday that you know, I've kind of been watching,
and I definitely got a deal on. But I always
find and this is terrible. I buy more things for
myself because it's like clothes and stuff that are world
(06:48):
cheap right now.
Speaker 7 (06:49):
So, like you said, like, if it's not electronics or anything,
what industry has the most deals?
Speaker 3 (06:52):
Would you say? Apparel?
Speaker 7 (06:54):
Okay, some more clothing deals out there?
Speaker 3 (06:56):
Yeah? Yeah.
