Cents us a know, hearts are heff think morning with the news of the passing of roy halladay. He died doing something that he also really loved, flying. He was the only person on that single engine plane whether it slammed into those shallow waters. There were no reports every any problems, or may day calls, officials rush to the scene, and they say hes going to be so missed. I have no doubt hes looking down with god up in heaven. Because his heart was a heart of goal and unbelievable human being. The ntsb will try to figure out the cause, mikhail call or pilot error. I felt his impact so much. One of our foyer aces, lets get over to the fanatic and steve keeley with what people are saying, steve . Reporter well, it stinks that were here only for these sad occasions, and im looking through the studio, in Network Programming the morning teaming about to come in in the next hour. And i see that picture of Darren Daulton it, remind me of the last time i was here another sad occasion, another awful lost, in this awful 2017 for the phillies family now with bunting, dallas green, Darren Daulton, and now roy halladay. And hearing the guys on that 2,008 Phillies World Series Team talk about roy halladay, tells you what kind of person he was, that set him apart from all of the other hall of fame caliber stars. These guys were the champs two years before halladay even came to philly, the established worm series winners and world series mvp cole hamels said if i could relive any moment in baseball, as we come back to our live picture, showing you his tweet, he says i will always say that would be to watch doc pitch again, not his winning the worlds is her sees or mvp but to watch halladay pitch again. Does that tell you all you need to know . Im seriously sad toned have that guy, i think on our team, for the time that we had him, it was a pure blessing. And i feel sorry for his family and all of the fans a cents cross the country and perhaps the world. My heart breaks for him, the family, the phillies, the fans, just horrible news. Well, chase utley on facebook said this he says the first time he ever met halladay, he goes in to spring training, it is 5 24 in the morning, he says halladay soaking wet at the breakfast table. And he says was it raining when you came in . And halladay laughed at him, he said no, i just got done working out. And then utley says right then and there, i knew right after meeting him that this guy was the real deal. He established himself leading by example. And these guys like i said, they were world series champ. They were already big names in and big stars themselvesment and they deferred to this guy, thats how cool he was. Always giving it his all. Steve, thank you so much. And after baseball, halladay took up flying, and became a pilot. But there was something his wife was very concerned about, as well. He had such a love for it, though. The former pitch her been frequent renter of the icon aircraft, soon enough he bought one for himself. This is some of the video of him and his wife in the aircraft. His entheusiasm for his new plane, his genuine love of aviation, obvious to anyone who followed him on social media. In fact he posted those pictures to twitter saying what do clouds feel like . I didnt know either until i got my new icon a5. Getting bruises on my arms from constantly pinching myself. I keep telling my dad flying the a con low over the waters is Like Fighting a fighter jet. His response, i am flying a fighter jet. No doubt a great baseball player, perhaps even better person. His generosity continued by coaching, mentoring, posted this picture with the players of the florida youre about to see, writing, they coup proving why theyre the best team on the field, but more important, the classiest. So steve was just talking about this a minute ago, we want to show it to you, the one from chase utley. The thing all every those players become like friends in our lives we just share and spend so much time w thats why we miss them so much. Chase writes i can still remember the first day we met. 5 45 a. M. On the first day of spring training when i got there he was finishing breakfast but his clothes were soaking wet. I asked him if it was raining when he got in. He laughed and said no i just finished my work out. I knew right then he was the real deal. Yes, he was.

Lukes after traffic stop turned into a highway shootout. It was just before 11 00 yesterday morning, on route 33, in plane field township, northampton county. He stopped 22 year old daniel call eel cleary for speeding and issued a ticket. The driver flagged him down to ask about paying that citation. And it was then the trooper figured the man was under the influence. So he called for back up. Thats when things got a little physical. Somehow the suspect escaped custody, returned to his car, and no one expected what happened next. He started shooting, hitting one trooper several times, other troopers shot back hitting him and blowing out his back window. Vehicles in a knock down drag out fight, it got very violent.
