DOWNLOAD OUR FREE WKYC APPS

CLEVELAND -- Brian Hoyer, the local kid who always dreamed of being Cleveland's quarterback, threw two touchdown passes in his first start at home to lead the Browns to a 17-6 win over the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday.

Hoyer's 1-yard TD pass to Chris Ogbonnaya with 4:54 left gave the Browns (2-2) an 11-point lead, and Cleveland turned it over to its vastly improved defense.

In his second start in place of injured Brandon Weeden, Hoyer finished 25 of 38 for 269 yards. 

He threw a 2-yard TD pass in the first half to Jordan Cameron, who had 10 catches for 91 yards.

The Bengals (2-2) couldn't get anything going on offense and Andy Dalton was intercepted by Buster Skrine with 3:43 left, ending any chance of a comeback.

Cleveland limited the Bengals to 63 rushing yards and cornerback Joe Haden contained wide receiver A.J. Green.

Indians potential tiebreaker game tickets go on sale

DOWNLOAD OUR FREE WKYC APPS

CLEVELAND -- The Cleveland Indians have announced that tickets are now available for a Monday tiebreaker game, if necessary.

There are still 3 teams, Indians included, that have a chance to take the two available Wild Card spots. Depending on what happens, a tiebreaker game is a possibility. 

There are two scenarios that could make Monday's game a reality:

If Tampa Bay wins one of the final remaining Postseason spots outright, and the Indians and Rangers end up tied for the final spot: The Indians would play host to a Tiebreaker game on Monday.

(or)

If Cleveland, Tampa Bay and Texas all end up tied for the final two AL Postseason spots: Cleveland will play host to an American League tiebreaker game against Tampa Bay on Monday. 

The loser will play at Texas on Tuesday in a second tiebreaker game, with the games' winners playing on Wednesday in the American League Wild Card Game. 

Fans who buy tickets will get a refund if the game is not played.

Indians win, lead AL wild-card race

DOWNLOAD OUR FREE WKYC APPS

MINNEAPOLIS -- The Cleveland Indians moved into the AL wild-card lead on the next-to-last scheduled day of the regular season, beating the Minnesota Twins 5-1 Saturday behind Scott Kazmir's strong start to extend their winning streak to nine.

Seeking their first postseason appearance since 2007, the Indians (91-70) took a one-game lead over Tampa Bay and Texas (both 90-71), who both lost Saturday.

Cleveland is assured of at least a tie for the AL wild card. With three teams seeking the two wild cards, Sunday's results could decide the matter or lead to one or two tiebreaker games at the start of next week.

Blog: Mayor tweets stripper who works at 'vegan' strip club

DOWNLOAD OUR FREE WKYC APPS

There are two questions plaguing my mind at the end of this week and, while they are not earthshaking, I really want to get some answers.

What's a 'vegan strip club' and why is Apple's GPS app for some newer iPhones and iPads taking drivers to the Fairbanks International Airport's runway and not the terminal?

Since I leave Sunday morning for a week on an island in South Carolina, I want to be informed before I go and rest my brain and lie in the sun for a week.

So, let's get the easy answer first.

According to the Associated Press, the airport's spokeswoman Angie Spear says Apple has disabled the directions after a previous glitch took drivers to the edge of a runway instead of the terminal.

And what's even scarier? Twice this month, drivers ignored signs and warning lights and continued over an active runway. The state of Alaska has asked Apple to fix the map, and airport officials have barricaded that entrance to the taxiway.

Really? Like when you saw the runway lights you didn't think it wasn't the terminal?

OK, now on to the second query.

The main story out of Newark, New Jersey was that U.S. Senate candidate Cory Booker, who is also the Mayor of Newark, confirmed that he messaged with a stripper on Twitter. (I was going to say he tweeted with a stripper but that brings up an entire other list of questions. But I digress.)

He told reporters and AP Thursday he communicates with thousands of people on Twitter and doesn't pay attention to their handles or profession.

Booker, 44, who is single, exchanged direct messages earlier this year with Lynsie Lee, who works in a vegan strip club in Portland, Ore., called Casa Diablo.

OK, forget about Booker and the Stripper -- although that reminds me of the TV show "BJ and the Bear" -- because politicians like Anthony Weiner have made political incorrectness a cottage industry.

In my opinion, the only real interesting part -- or the "news," if you will -- is the vegan strip club part.

So, I did some research. How did Portland get a vegan strip club?

In Oregon, it's easy to open a strip club. But if you want a liquor license, you have to serve food. And Portland is very vegan-friendly. (Who knew?)

Back in 2008, what's now Casa Diablo was a vegan restaurant called Pirate's Tavern. Johnny Diablo, the owner, built a raised stage and hired nude dancers.

See, in Oregon, you can open a strip club in most any commercially zoned location, featuring most any kind of show.

So I guess it wasn't a case of filling a niche. The vegan restaurant ended up with nude women in it. So now we know which came first, the chicken or the egg?

By the way, know that Portland has the highest concentration of strip clubs per capita among America's 50 largest cities. All serve food because all serve liquor. One was bound to be vegan.

Now if I can only find one that only serves bacon. Have fun.

Cleveland has 17 hits in 12-6 over Twins

DOWNLOAD OUR FREE WKYC APPS

MINNEAPOLIS -- Carlos Santana and Asdrubal Cabrera both had two doubles and Jason Kipnis was a homer short of the cycle as the Cleveland Indians had 17 hits in a 12-6 victory over the Minnesota Twins on Friday night.

With the win and Tampa Bay's loss at Toronto, the Indians moved into a tie with the Rays for the top wild card spot in the American League, one game ahead of Texas, which beat Los Angeles. 

Cleveland has won eight straight and 13 of 15, taking advantage of a schedule that ends with 10 games against Houston, the Chicago White Sox and the Twins, the three worst teams in the AL this season.

Indians starter Corey Kluber (11-5) managed to win his fifth straight decision. 

He started the game with three scoreless innings, but then allowed 10 of the next 16 hitters to reach and was knocked out with one out in the sixth. 

Kluber gave up six earned runs and 10 hits, but walked only one and struck out five.

Twins starter Pedro Hernandez (3-3) gave up four runs in the first inning and three in the second.

Police have suspect in Tallmadge bodies case

DOWNLOAD OUR FREE WKYC APPS

TALLMADGE -- Tallmadge Police have identified a suspect in the death of a woman and her son whose remains were found in a wooded area last month.

The man, who has not been charged, was the live-in boyfriend of Wendy Ralston. Police took the case to prosecutors late Thursday.

Ralston and her 5-year-old son, Peyton, had been reported missing by Ralston's mother.

Lt. Ron Williams says the man was brought in and questioned the day the bodies were found, and he stayed overnight at the police department that night, providing officers with a lot of information.

In the past six weeks, police say they've thoroughly investigated the case and the forensics. Lt. Williams says they've confirmed most of the information the man provided to be inaccurate, leading police to consider him a suspect.

The information will go to a Summit County grand jury in the next two weeks, where police hope prosecutors will be able to indict the suspect.

Police do not consider the man a flight risk.

Funeral services for Wendy and Peyton Ralston will be held Friday from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. at the Donovan Funeral Home, 17 Southwest Avenue, Tallmadge.

The funeral will begin at 11 a.m. Saturday at the Tallmadge Lutheran Church, 759 East Avenue, Tallmadge, following an hour-long visitation.

Lakewood: Two water main breaks, two road closures

DOWNLOAD OUR FREE WKYC APPS

LAKEWOOD, Ohio -- Two large water main breaks have closed Lakewood Heights Boulevard in two places early Friday morning.

A large water main break closed Lakewood Heights Boulevard at Alger Road starting around 2:30 a.m.

Then, just before 4 a.m., another break closed Lakewood Heights Boulevard from Arthur Avenue to Carabel Avenue.

The Lakewood Heights Boulevard-Alger Road intersection is closed, but westbound traffic on Lakeshore can still get on I-90 like normal. Traffic in both directions will need to detour along one of the streets north of this intersection, like Madison Avenue, to get around the road closure.

Detours from the second closure will have to at least take Delaware Avenue and may have to go up to Hilliard-Madison.

Water could be seen coming up in the street on Alger Road as far as a quarter mile north of the intersection.

Crews have shut off the water at Lakewood Heights and Alger and are working to assess and repair the damage. Water crews say that main was a 12-inch pipe.

Portable cameras now on Cleveland streets to slow drivers

DOWNLOAD OUR FREE WKYC APPS

CLEVELAND -- Watch your speed out there on Cleveland's streets. A new portable camera may be watching your every move.

As part of its Operation Safe Streets, the city is deploying the camera units across the area to help reduce speed in neighborhoods, reduce accident severity and get drivers to better comply with traffic laws.

In front of each camera, there is a sign notifying drivers that a speed enforcement area is just ahead.

The cost of a photo enforcement ticket is $100.

The Clerk of Courts does not make the decision to put the cameras on the street, nor does the office choose the locations. The City Safety Department works with Council members to choose the locations.

The Clerk of Courts office does collect the fines.

The city says the units do not require an officer on site and can be placed in areas where pole mounted or mobile speed camera units cannot be used.

Cameras will record speeding violations and a Cleveland officer will review results to determine if a citation is warranted. Citations will be mailed to the owner of the vehicle.

Signs will be placed in areas where a Portable Camera Unit may be in use. The PCUs can be moved from location to location.

Here are the current locations for the PCUs

• 4050 Superior Avenue
• 11400 Block of Edgewater Drive
• 2416 E 55th Street
• 2300 St Clair Avenue
• 3219 Detroit Avenue
• 4123 Pearl Road

CLEVELAND -- Rookie Danny Salazar gave Cleveland a much-needed quality start and Nick Swisher hit a two-run homer as the Indians tightened their grip one of the AL wild-card spots with their 14th straight win over the Chicago White Sox, 7-2 on Wednesday night in their home finale.

Salazar (2-3) struck out eight in 5 1/3 innings for the Indians, who won their final six home games to stay with the wild-card leaders. 

They entered the night with a one-game lead over Texas in the wild-card chase. Cleveland is also one game behind Tampa Bay for the top spot with just four games left.

Cleveland hasn't made the playoffs since 2007, but the Indians are closing in on a berth under first-year manager Terry Francona, who guided Boston to two World Series titles.

Euclid: Mom says Facebook threats led to son's murder

DOWNLOAD OUR FREE WKYC APPS

EUCLID -- A local mom is looking for support and answers as she grieves her son, who she says was killed after threats on Facebook.

She's put her story on YouTube: "My name is Miranda Dietrich. I'm a mother whose son was murdered over a Facebook argument."

"If it weren't for Facebook, then this wouldn't have happened in the whole beginning," she told Channel 3's Sara Shookman. 

Prentice Dietrich-Smith died July 1, just hours after he was stabbed in the street outside his Euclid home. The accused killer, Christopher Dowen, now faces charges for murder, felonious assault and tampering with evidence.

Dietrich says Facebook messages like this one she provided show a fight that escalated to violence that left her son dead.

"This was not something that happened in a snap decision," she said. "I honestly believe that. There's no way for me to look at it any other way."

Dietrich is hoping for stiffer charges for a murder she believes was premeditated and justice against all those she believes were involved.

WKYC asked Euclid police and Cuyahoga County prosecutors, but they wouldn't comment on the case, saying they were not taking any chances to jeopardize the prosecution. 

"This was a stupid fight over a girl where a kid had so much anger and rage that he carried out what he said he was going to do," said Dietrich.

Dowen pleaded not guilty to the charges and posted $100,000 bond, cash or surety, and he's now on house arrest awaiting a December trial.

"My son is on my mind all the time. He was a huge part of my life and it got taken away," said Dietrich. "And this kid is at home. I don't understand."

Prosecutors say they are still investigating the case as they prepare for trial but wouldn't elaborate on seeking additional charges.

Dietrich has posted an online memorial to raise awareness for her son and help with his funeral expenses. You can read more by clicking here.

Fourth search day for hiker unsuccessful; search suspended

SALIDA, Colo. -- A fourth day of searching for an Ohio man who went missing while hiking in Colorado was unsuccessful, according to the Chaffee County Sheriff's Office.

Forty-five hikers from Araphoe and Chaffee counties searched for Gene George today with the assistance of a search dog team and a U.S. Army National Guard helicopter.

George, 64, of Bay Village spoke to a friend in Cleveland from a hotel room on Sept. 18, saying he planned to hike the Mount Harvard area on Thursday or Friday. A concerned hotel employee notified Buena Vista police on Sunday when George failed to check out of his hotel room.

Authorities discovered George's vehicle parked and locked at the North Cottonwood Creek trailhead.

Undersheriff John Spezze, the overall incident commander, said that absent additional clues to George's location, the active field search operation is suspended as of today.

Although the search has been called off, investigation into the disappearance will continue, and informational posters with his photograph will be posted in the park and at local outdoors shops, according to the Sheriff's Office.

State troopers need your help keeping drugs out of Ohio

DOWNLOAD OUR FREE WKYC APPS

CLEVELAND -- Drug smugglers are getting creative, and, according to state troopers, their business often brings them through Ohio.

Turns out, Northeast Ohio is perfectly situated if you want to move drugs from east to west or north to south, which is one reason drug busts are at a new high.

And because these smugglers are hiding in plain sight, Lt. Antonio Matos with the State Highway Patrol is asking for your help.

"We can't do it alone," he said. "We need the community involved, and when they get involved, they're another set of eyes out there for us."

Matos wants you to look for suspicious vehicles known as "trap cars."

Trap cars use hidden compartments to stash all sorts of contraband.

The "hides" can be under seats, in air bag cavities, in bumpers, in false floors or false walls.

"You're always impressed and it's kind of like fashion, things continuously change," says Matos.

You know what else is changing? Take a look at the number of drug arrests Ohio State troopers are making every year, and you'll notice a pattern. 

In 2011, they made 6,000 drug arrests. In 2012, that number jumped to 7,600.

And so far this year, that number is already at 6,400.

Matos says he expects that number to climb to 8,000.

What's behind the trend? State troopers have stepped up their training and they know exactly what to look for.

And next time you're on these roads, they want you to know what to look for, too, so that drug smugglers, intent on bringing their contraband into Northeast Ohio, hear this message loud and clear: "Your time is coming. It's not just us, but understanding that they community is out there watching too," says Matos.

Indians beat White Sox for 14th straight time, 7-2

DOWNLOAD OUR FREE WKYC APPS

CLEVELAND -- Rookie Danny Salazar gave Cleveland a much-needed quality start and Nick Swisher hit a two-run homer as the Indians tightened their grip one of the AL wild-card spots with their 14th straight win over the Chicago White Sox, 7-2 on Wednesday night in their home finale.

Salazar (2-3) struck out eight in 5 1/3 innings for the Indians, who won their final six home games to stay with the wild-card leaders. 

They entered the night with a one-game lead over Texas in the wild-card chase. Cleveland is also one game behind Tampa Bay for the top spot with just four games left.

Swisher homered in the fifth inning off Dylan Axlerod (4-11) as the Indians finished the season 16-2 against Chicago.

Cleveland hasn't made the playoffs since 2007, but the Indians are closing in on a berth under first-year manager Terry Francona, who guided Boston to two World Series titles.

The table is being set for a playoff party at Progressive Field. 

It's like the good old days in 2007.

The scenario means the field will not be winterized after Wednesday's last home game.

Thousands of hungry fans need playoff party food -- tons of hot dogs, sliders, soda and beer need to be ordered.

And concession workers will have extra paychecks they may not have been counting on.

Communications coordinator Joel Hammond meets with his team to make sure the party is a hit.Practice makes perfect.

That's why Major League Baseball put out what is the Bible or "best practices" for playoff teams to follow.

It's a game plan to make sure the show on the field is memorable for all the right reasons.

The Indians have a mission statement that talks about "positively impacting our community." The playoffs would do that in a very big way.

One this is for sure -- the Indians will be prepared to join the show if and when they make it into the playoffs.

Jason Giambi's 2-run homer gives Indians 5-4 win

DOWNLOAD OUR FREE WKYC APPS

CLEVELAND -- Pinch-hitter Jason Giambi belted a two-run homer with two outs in the ninth inning to give Cleveland a stunning 5-4 win over the Chicago White Sox on Tuesday night, keeping the Indians up with the lead pack in the AL wild-card race.

Giambi drove a 1-1 pitch from Addison Reed (5-4) into the lower deck in right field to save the Indians from a potentially devastating loss. 

Giambi's shot bailed out controversial closer Chris Perez, who gave up two homers in the top of the ninth.

As he rounded third base, the 42-year-old Giambi slowed down before being engulfed by his teammates as the Indians celebrated their 13th straight win over Chicago.

Bryan Shaw (6-3) came in after Perez had nearly given away a game the Indians couldn't afford to lose.

Workplace drug testing goes mobile

DOWNLOAD OUR FREE WKYC APPS

AVON LAKE -- Drug testing is not just for professional athletes. It is part of the job and required by law in many industries.

But more Ohio companies that never tested employees for drugs before are doing so now.

"It can be anything from landscaping to attorneys, to accountants. Certainly there is a whole broad range," says Karen Kitchen.

Kitchen and her husband own and operate USA Mobile Drug Testing of Cleveland.

The company's list of clients ranges from tree removal companies and day care facilities to schools and house cleaning services.

Drug testing services aren't new.

But Kitchen and her husband started the first and only 24/7 mobile compliance service in Northeast Ohio.

The idea appealed to employers for numerous reasons. For Ron Guenther of Chemtron Corp. in Avon Lake, it was convenience.

"Response time, liability, rapid results, so we were able to get a one-stop shop," Guenther says, of his decision to go with USAMDT.

Traditionally, employees would travel to a drug testing lab. That meant lost work time and liability if the employee was in an accident on their way to or from the testing site. Mobile testing also offers the element of surprise for companies like Chemtron who conduct random drug tests.

"It provides the element of surprise. The employee doesn't know that we are coming," says Kitchen. Only one predetermined person on staff will know when testing is to occur. Guenther likes it that way.

"We don't want to give advance notice. If someone is going to steal from you, they are not going to give warning. If someone is going to be drug tested, I would rather they admit that they are positive so that we can get them into a program and help rehab them before I spend the cost and find out they are and have to deal with it later," says Guenther.

"As soon as they arrive for testing, our employee is brought into a room so they don't have the time or ability to use a masking agent," Guenther says.

Chemtron is an environmental services provider and because employees handle hazardous materials they are required by law to drug test.

"Having an employee here who wants to be high; we just can't afford it," Guenther says, before adding that of Chemtron's roughly 140 employees, he believes "99.9 percent" are clean.

Kitchen admits her business has been impacted by Northeast Ohio's painkiller epidemic.

"The opiate problem has become more pervasive here, particularly in the Cleveland area. So we are seeing a lot more of our clients test for the 10 panel which includes opiates as well as sleeping pills and anti-anxiety medications," Kitchen explains.

In addition to testing, the company also helps train supervisors to spot signs of drug abuse, how to have a conversation with the employee and how to comply with company's drug policy. This is where mobile testing can offer additional benefits, Kitchen points out.

"It's a big safety hazard for a supervisor to get in a car with a person and drive them to a facility. If you can keep them here in a controlled environment, you don't have the extended liability of someone getting in the car with them and who knows what that reaction might be," Kitchen explains.

Ohio has a drug-free workplace program regulating testing. Employers who drug test must have employee assistance program resources, employee education and supervisor training.

It's also important to note that employers who establish drug testing programs can qualify for a discount on their workers' compensation insurance premiums.

However, they must follow state's rules to get their discount.

Rules for Job Applicants in Ohio: Ohio employers are allowed to drug test applicants and new hires.

Rules for Employees in Ohio: Ohio employers are authorized to drug test employees in a number of circumstances, including post-workplace accident, reasonable suspicion and after an employee returns to work following a positive test.

The increase in workplace drug testing has not gone unnoticed. The American Civil Liberties Union Law Reform Project is working to halt the expansion of random testing programs, particularly in the workplace.

AKRON -- Police have turned to YouTube once again hoping for the public's help in identifying a suspect wanted for a hit-and-run crash.

The woman allegedly crashed into a construction worker on Sept. 9 around 8 p.m. with her vehicle on I-77 North near the Vernon Odom Blvd. exit and fled the scene.

Surveillance video from a nearby gas station shows the suspect and her vehicle -- a tan SUV, possibly a Ford, with damage to the driver's side.

The footage shows the suspect rushing in and out of the gas station's store.

Anybody with information is asked to call the Akron Police Department at 330-375-2508.

No further details -- including the construction worker's injuries -- were provided.

Burger King launching lower-calorie french fry

DOWNLOAD OUR FREE WKYC APPS

NEW YORK -- Burger King wants people to feel less guilty about gobbling up its french fries.

The world's No. 2 hamburger chain is launching a new crinkle-cut french fry on Tuesday that it says has 20 percent fewer calories than its regular fries.

The chain says a small order of "Satisfries" clocks in at 270 calories because of a new batter that doesn't absorb as much oil. 

By comparison, a small order of its regular fries, sans the crinkles, has 350 calories.

The concept of taking an indulgent food and trying to remove some of the guilt isn't new. 

Supermarket shelves are filled with baked Lay's potato chips, 100-calorie packs of Oreos and other less fattening versions of popular treats.

But the trick is to cut calories, not flavor.

State Dept: 4 US citizens injured in Kenya attack

DOWNLOAD OUR FREE WKYC APPS

WASHINGTON -- The State Department says four American citizens have been reported injured in the attack on a shopping mall in Kenya.

Kenyan officials say the assault by Somali militants on Nairobi's top shopping mall killed at least 39 people and wounded more than 150 others.

In a statement Saturday, a State Department official said consular officers have been in contact with the four injured Americans and have been providing appropriate assistance.

In a separate statement, a White House spokeswoman says some staff at the U.S. Embassy in Kenya have been "tragically affected" by the attack. No other information has been released.

The spokeswoman for the White House National Security Council, Caitlin Hayden, says the U.S. has offered its full support to the Kenyan government to bring the perpetrators to justice.

Akron | Vigil, update on Taylor Robinson murder

DOWNLOAD OUR FREE WKYC APPS

AKRON -- Before a vigil and service were held at Calvary Baptist Church, investigators updated the status of the murder investigation in the death of Taylor Robinson.

Tim Dimoff, of Security Consulting Services, and Thomas Fields, of Accurate Investigative Services, said they are working with Akron police and have been able to eliminate some of the 10 suspects.

Fields, who has been donating his services to the family since Taylor went missing May 4, said he believes the person who killed Taylor was someone she knew. He thinks it was some kind of physical encounter that went too far.

Fields also believes that whomever killed her had some help moving her body to the Cuyahoga Valley National Park.

Anyone with information on the murder or possible connections should call the tipline at 1-877-836-1288. A reward is available.

After the press conference and church service, Pastor Jeffrey Dennis of the Calvary Baptist Church was to make a short statement on behalf of the family.

Hikers came across a human jawbone off a trail at the CVNP Sept. 9. Park police and the FBI found other bones and remains nearby.

The Summit County Medical Examiner's Office positively identified the remains as Taylor Robinson, 19. She was not seen after she was dropped off at her home healthcare job the night of May 4 in Akron.

"This was not done by a stranger. This was someone that did this horrific act that knew Taylor Robinson, had a relationship with her," said Dimoff.

Dimoff, a criminal profiler and former Akron detective, says he believes a confrontation escalated to violence, perhaps at the home on Kipling Avenue where Taylor was last seen. She was dropped off for her job as a home health aide.

Dimoff thinks she might have let someone she knew inside that home, though there was no sign of a struggle there or cover up. Officers did locate her coat and shoes still at the residence.

Investigators hope a $7,000 Crime Stoppers reward will bring out clues from the community. They believe someone out there knows what happened.
