LYOYA AUTOPSY RESULTS: Lawyers for the family of Patrick Lyoya are sharing their findings of an independent autopsy Tuesday.
Attorneys Ben Crump and Ven Johnson hosted a news conference Tuesday, April 19 at 10:30 a.m. at The Westin Book Cadillac Detroit. They revealed the results of Lyoya's independent autopsy done by forensic pathology expert Dr. Werner Spitz on April 16 in Grand Rapids.
Dr. Spitz concluded that Lyoya died as the result of a single gunshot wound that entered the back of his skull near the midline.
He says he believed the gun was pressed to the back of Lyoya's head when the bullet traveled up to the right side of his skull and lodged near his right temporal bone.
ROAD SIGNS MISSPELLED: Here in good ol’ "Grand Radips," we are very serious about our roads — the potholes, the orange barrels, and even the signs we adorn them with. So, really, it’s no surprise that people very quickly noticed some typos on multiple new road signs in Coopersville over the weekend.
Two new signs were installed that had misspelled "Grand Radips" and "Cooperville."
"We all make mistakes," said MDOT’s Southwest region spokesperson Nick Schirripa. "There's no science here, somebody just made a mistake, and it didn't get caught until it was on a post."
FORECAST: Mild temperatures and some clouds today. Rain tonight, wrapping up early tomorrow morning. High of 53°. Get the full forecast here.
