AAA is projecting 50.7 million Americans will travel 50 miles or more this upcoming July 4th weekend, setting a new record…and make sure to watch your luggage. This woman lost her bag but it had an air tag in it...so she was able to track it. She found her stuff - at a homeless encampment. So how could this happen? Jim Moret reports. And you may have heard the heartbreaking story of the American tourists who went on vacation in Mexico and the husband was electrocuted in the resort hot tub. Now his widow is speaking out for the first time saying she almost died trying to save her husband. Plus, the defense began today for the college professor accused of killing her boyfriend, a Boston police officer. This comes after prosecutors played for the jury expletive filled voicemails left by Karen Read. They say she called her late boyfriend 53 times in just five hours the morning he was found dead. And next week brings the first major event leading up to the November 5th election...as President Biden and Donald Trump face off in a debate. It actually is not an understatement to say the stakes couldn't be higher for both men. Here's how they’re getting ready.    To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.
