Two —- A new state law is aiming to curb auto theft in Michigan. Around the state, there were over 25-thousand vehicles stolen in 2023 and between 85-and-90-percent were stolen by thieves using Auto ProPad devices. Those devices allow thieves to program a blank key to start a car. The new law took effect last month to make possessing a ProPad without a legitimate purpose punishable by five-years in prison, and ten-years if someone uses it to actually steal a vehicle.
And number three — Parts of Florida are expected to feel what’s left of Tropical Storm Sara. Remnants of Sara dissipated yesterday morning after bringing more than three-feet of rain to Honduras. The National Hurricane Center says the storm could bring tropical moisture to the Sunshine State and the northern Gulf Coast on Wednesday.
