At the university of akron. At 21, Clayton Murphy has quite a year ahead of him. I want him to continue to have fun doing this. He has brought Families Together that dont normally get together on a monday night and watch him race and root for the usa. I think we need more of that. Well, i will tell you what, Clayton Murphy is certainly still having fun raising moment. Its lucky when people can find a passion like that and also have the talent that Clayton Murphy has to back it up. His next stop is going to be back to ohio. Get to go home for a little bit and back to fall classes. Hes on a path and is going to keep running straight ahead. We know he has the support of his family to back it up. Pretty amazing here. If he made his move, were cheering for him as well. I can only imagine what his think, for all of them. They were part of a team, as i said. Congratulations to him. I said it to each of them. They worked pretty hard at some point along the way. Bigtime. All right. Well see you later, thanks. Visit us at Northern Ohio dealers. Com. Heres what else is happening. We now know that many atm smash and grab case weve been telling you about in our area are the work of one crime ring, part of a fiveyear spree that came to an end yesterday. Carly, good evening to you. Hey, russ, a van smashed into this right aid. Its one of the crime this is group is accused of. 10atm crash robberies. Make no mistakes. The three men pictured on top are the ring leaders. 8 of these suspects will be arrested with three still at large. The group typically stole cargo fans and smashed them through store fronts, accessing cash in the machines. They believe this group began the crime spree years ago with some taking time off to go to prison. Over time their level of violence they graduated from hitting clothes store to open stores where they were clerks and customers, even more lives in danger. They got quicker too. A recent incident took only 95 seconds to complete. Authorities say businesses in avon, mentor, cleveland, and canton fell victim since early last year. More indictments and arrests are expected as Police Investigate dozens more incidents. Arrests were a collaboration, including parma, ava, and strongsville. They say Mentor Police moved in on the crew before a recent job. They stopped a van. Made arrests. They caned a lot of information that they hope to use to arrest more people in the future. Reporting live in cleveland, carly flynn morgan, channel 3. They had quite a run. And now it is over. The road to the white house made its way back to northeast ohio as Hillary Clinton game to cleveland. Chris tye has more on her message. She game to John Marshall high school. She spoke for 32 minutes. Try to keep the spark lit for her election this fall. On the outside, it was a her daughter that a woman can be president. She says, you have to be a boy to be president. I said, oh, sweetie, no. Anyone can be president , right, honey . On the inside, it was that woman watching these students show off a robotics lab made from the minds of young clevelanders. But the mcics of olympics come first today and clinton used this opportunity to push back on a newly pivoted donald trump who last night tried to sell his brand to nonwhite voters. The Democratic Party failed and betrayed the African American community. Clinton says dont believe the new language. But he is still the same man who insults gold star families, demeans women, mocks people with disabilities, and thinks he knows more about isis than our generals. She targeted him on his tax plan but insiders say didnt cover new ground here today. Instead of putting up defense airing the first paid commercials on friday, just as the olympics end and voters return their attention to the campaign. For anyone waiting for donald trump to suddenly become more responsible, remember what a Great American mayya anglo maya anglo said, when someone shows you who they are, believe them. Trump was in youngstown earlier this week. Clinton was in cleveland today. Theyre kind of going to their hot bed of support areas. The question is can they get outside their range and maybe lasso in some of their undecided who may not be in their normal pack yards. Kellyanne conway, you will probably see shes been his surrogate as we begin the final at least a report that Hillary Clinton made a stop off at the q and met with Paul Mccartney. So a little celebrity in the mix too. Thank you. Were going to celebrate our new third graders coming in. Were going to celebrate how to help these guys get a college education. Thats last night. Lebron james welcoming a new class of third graders, all on a mission to become College Graduates from the lebron family foundation. Its something he told jim donovan is a very big part of his legacy. Jim sat down with him one on one for an exclusive interview. Isnt it amazing that hes recruiting third graders, and hes recruiting them. When we think of recruit, were talking about College Scouts to come in to get High School Athletes to go to their school and on to a pro career. Lebron is recruiting for a basic reason. Thats to help a lot of kids in the city of akron and the akron area, telling kids to get an education. And if they make a commitment to him, by taking and adhering to a simple promise, then hes with them all the way through high school. On through college until hopefully they walk off the stage some day at a College Graduation with a diploma in their hand. When i sat down with him i asked him about the promise he asked them to keep. The promise is each and every day. In front of your Big Foundation event. But its every day. Its about promising me and i will promise them to do great things not only in the community but also go to school, listen to their teachers do great classmates. Be socially active. Theres so many different ways that we can continue to change and help. The kids, they promised me that. My promise to them is i will continue to be a great role a great father figure for those kids.

Some are like myself, you know, recognize and feel like, wow, he really cares. Because i really do. I really truly do. And those kids, they give it all back to me. Down with him. I think people had a chance to see him in a totally different light. I think we heard about the lebron james family foundation. We probably wondered about it and how involved he is. As you can see, he is very involved. Now, this will come to fruition, really, as these kids start to get into college. His first graduating class should be around 2020 and 2021. These are kids that will go all college degree. He was excited about something really different, the start of the school year for his kids. Fame is one thing, legacy is something else. All right.

Nice weather for sir paul. Folks waiting outside will not have to worry about rain. Its a little warm and humid. Thats par for the course. Lets take a look. First, outside on the radar, we have this one shower that continues to push to the southeast. As you can see, its moving mostly through portage county, nice heavy downpour, gusty winds associated with it too. Hudson, down into stowe, silver lake. Back into Cuyahoga County falls that continues to push south. Were getting heavy rain reported out toward the turnpike area. That could hamper travel. As you can see, stowe and Cuyahoga Falls and newton also in this. If it holds together, clip into portions of union town. I think most of it is going to go east into the youngstown area. Toe lee doe is toledo is about to get pelted right now. I think most of us will i see it stay to the east of us. If we get an out flow boundary, that would be cool air coming out of the thunderstorms. That stirs up rain and thunder. That could be after 9 00 or so. And the thunderstorms in southern canada will miss us completely as well. Now, the rain train weve been watching from the deep south over the last several days, its shifted. You can see its tilted a little bit. Instead of going from louisiana to michigan, its going from texas to west virginia. Well be on the skirt of the moisture. We still have a chance of showers and thunderstormt and farther between. Lets go further out. The line to the west moves through. Temperature at daybreak right around 70. Well make it to the midand upper 70s. Cant rule out an isolated rain or thunder chance, as i mentioned, but it looks like partly cloudy skies will be the rule and the wrap up thursday, it looks like its going to be a beautiful night. Lake erie, i think the winds will be mostly west to northwest. Of a wind shot. Window nation forecast, upper 80s into friday. Storms start to pop up. That continues into sunday with a big cold front coming through. Thats the cold front coming on sunday that will finally get rid of the heat, get rid of the humidity.
