FOX6 News at 5 | Nov 9, 2026

With stories that matter to you, this is Fox 6 News at 5. They were a welcoming family. Their mom was incredible. Their children were incredible. Now at 5, police are investigating after four people were found dead in a West Bend home. What we're learning about the people involved, plus. A viral video of students at Ole Miss linked to a local family business. But that's just one part of a much larger investigation. Every machine that a voter can cast a ballot or do the express vote creates a tape, and those tapes are what we're reconciling. And in Waukesha County, they're finalizing one election, but at the same time, preparing for another. We begin tonight with a big story at 5. The West Bend community is grieving after police found four people dead inside a home. We are learning medical officials have now started conducting autopsies. Our Derontae Matthews live near Washington and Wisconsin Street with the very latest on this story. Derontae. Yeah, Mary and Ted, police have been working the scene all day. In fact, we've seen investigators coming in and out of this home that you can see is still completely covered with crime scene tape. But right in front of it, where these trees are, you can see a memorial that's been growing by the hour. We've been seeing folks coming up here in groups, crying and praying. Many of them have been leaving. Balloons and flowers, you can see a couple of them are coming up right now here to pay their respects. We've also seen a lot of people signing their names on those three wooden hearts that we're told will be updated once the names of those deceased are released. Now, police tell us that this entire incident really started on Saturday when they got a 911 call that alerted them to this home here near Washington and Wisconsin. West Bend police say they found an adult man, an adult woman, a boy. A girl and a dog all dead inside. Another girl inside was taken to the hospital for treatment. Now the medical examiner's office tells us they have started autopsies on four people this morning and those autopsies are being conducted in Milwaukee County. Police also say they found a firearm inside this home on Saturday that they believe to be connected to the incident. Investigators say they believe the suspect was among those deceased. Well, yesterday, two police sources confirmed to us the suspect was a former Milwaukee police officer. Sources say that suspect retired more than a decade ago and the retirement was not duty related. Now, right now, we are not releasing that person's name because the West Bend Police Department has not confirmed his involvement or identity. Yesterday we caught up with friends of the families who say they were really close with one of the daughters. She is just the biggest blessing we could have ever had and we're all going to miss her so much. I will forever cherish this family as it was my own. Now police tell us they are still conducting interviews while those autopsies are being done. Right now there is no word on when they will be completed, but once they are done, the medical examiner's office tells us any information will then come from the West Bend Police Department, and they say they hope to have some new details for us either today or possibly tomorrow. For now, reporting live in West Bend, Derontae Matthews, Fox 6 News. Thank you, Derontae. A local connection to viral national story is drawing outrage. A racist incident captured on video at the University of Mississippi is now bringing scrutiny home to Kunis Auto Group. Our Bria Jones is in the newsroom with what we're learning and how that video... is reopening some wounds for customers in our area. Give us the connection here, Bria. That's right. I had two confirmed sources who are current employees at Cunis Auto Group. They are connecting the dots tonight. They both say one of the students in that video was the daughter of a top executive. The video shows two students acting out monkey gestures and noises outside the apartment of a black student. A viral video showing racist gestures at Ole Miss sparking nationwide outrage, signaling trouble for Cunis Auto Group, a Wisconsin dealership that has a storied past with discrimination against black customers. What did it make you relive? Relive the prejudice, the prejudice, the racism, how the country hasn't grown from all the way back in the 60s and 50s. It really is 2026. Thanks. The country really hasn't grown in that aspect. 61-year-old Carolyn Word has bought four cars from Cunis Auto Group. She shared these text messages from last March of a sales representative from the Elkhorn location sending her memes of a bear and an ape in a skirt. He said, ha ha, I thought I was going to have my first time selling a car to a bear. So it was pretty humiliating. It felt like a blast from the past for me, you know, growing up in Mississippi. Never thought this would happen. I was just humiliated. The viral Ole Miss video reopening wounds as Fox 6 has learned one of the students is the daughter of the Cunis Auto Group executive. Who is this information coming from? Yeah, this is coming from a current employee who has worked at Cunis for years, who knows the family very well. Who knows this young person in particular? William Sultan is Ward's attorney. He also represents the woman Fox 6 previously profiled in 2025 that received the N-word on her oil change sticker. I think people are right to draw this connection, right? This is racist behavior. This isn't just a family issue because of the nature of the misconduct here, but they should come out and do the right thing and say, My daughter made a mistake. We don't believe in this, and we're going to do something about it. In a statement, Cunis Auto Group says in part, the individual in the video has no employment, ownership, or professional affiliation with Cunis Auto Group. We do not comment on private citizens unaffiliated with the company. My thought is that's untrue, because if that was true, those incidents wouldn't happen. In a message to students and staff, the University of Mississippi says in part, the behavior depicted in the video is deeply troubling, hurtful, and unacceptable. We condemn the behavior as it does not reflect our university's values or the kind of community we strive to be every day. We also didn't reach out to the Cunis family by phone, but no one answered. Ted, Mary? Bria, we have looked into the comments coming from Ole Miss, and they are saying that, yes, they take this very seriously. However, we have not heard what that disciplinary action could be. If it's, for example, an expulsion or something like that, have you heard what the actual action item will be to discipline those students? Well, Mary, Ole Miss, according to their statement that they released to the media and then the letter that I just read that they sent out to staff and students, they say that they will not be releasing any sort of disciplinary action if any is taken. It's interesting, Kunis says we have no professional connection to this person. They didn't deny any personal connection, did they? They did not, Ted. And we had this conversation kind of earlier, if I could shed a little light. I actually reached out to Kunis yesterday. I got a call back today thinking that they thought that I wanted to buy a car. I identified myself as a member of Fox 6 with the media, and I said, no, I did not want to buy a car, but I wanted to learn more about this information. An employee there said they condemned what happened, but they did confirm to me that one of the students in the video is indeed the daughter of a top executive with the auto group. Gotcha. Bria Jones in the newsroom. Thank you. A former security coordinator accused of hiding a camera in a girl's locker room pleads out as the case was set to go to trial. Fernando Bustos worked at Crisco Ray Jesuit High School. Investigators say he secretly recorded hundreds of videos from spring 2004 to February 2025. Thank you. In court today, he changed his plea to guilty on nine counts. Sentencing is set for sometime in January. A Burlington couple loses more than $600,000 in an impersonation scheme. Now, two people allegedly involved in that scheme appear in court. Our Racine Kenosha County reporter, Ben Hanson, with more details on how the suspects may not have been fully aware of what they were doing. In just under two months from March to May, a Burlington couple lost more than $600,000 in an impersonation scam. They were told they needed to send gold through courier packages to be absolved in an identity theft investigation. According to criminal complaints, those victims believed they were communicating with and sending this gold to someone from the Federal Trade Commission. At a controlled package handoff with the victims at a gas station in Kenosha County, Racine deputies caught two suspects, Reese Leitner and Carissa Snow. According to the complaint, Snow and Lightner had driven up from Florida and were going to get paid to deliver the package of gold from the victims. But the criminal complaint says Lightner indicated they didn't know what was in the package, where they would deliver it, or the identity of the person that coordinated the pickup. Snow's defense argued in a way that would show she was partially forced into the scam or wasn't fully aware of what she was doing. What knowledge of any, if any, did Ms. Snow possess regarding what was happening with respect to these packages? What I knew, based off of what Mr. Lightner said, was that they had limited knowledge of what was in the package. But the court commissioner still found probable cause for Snow to stand trial. She is expected back in court on December 7th. As for Lightner, the state is still working to find him an attorney. They are both being federally prosecuted as they are part of a bigger gold bar scam across the U.S. with other suspects. In Racine, Ben Hanson, Fox 6 News. We just had an election last week and voters in Waukesha County will soon be heading back to the polls to cast another ballot. Last week's results are being certified as we speak. Waukesha County reporter Brett Lemoine is live with a look at the process to finish up one election and head straight to another one, Brett. Yeah, we're not done yet here in Waukesha County, Ted and Mary. The canvassing board is just wrapping up for the day here at the county offices. They're going to be back out here. All day tomorrow and again all day Wednesday, of course, the election results from last week are not official until they certify them. Every voter machine used in the county creates a tape or receipt when all the votes are cast. County Clerk Georgia Maxwell and a representative from both the Democrats and Republicans go through and add up every machine's totals. They're also reviewing handwritten poll books to check to see if there were any technical issues with any ballots. Maxwell compares it to balancing a checkbook right down to the penny she says each and every vote is accounted for. The process is live streamed so municipal clerks and more importantly members of the public can watch the process live. Turnout last week was 81%. Maxwell says that is nearly identical to the last midterm election. But here in Waukesha County, voters still have one more election this calendar year. December 15th will be a special election for county executive because of the death of Paul Farrell this past July. The statute is very clear on when a special has to be called and for that special election as it relates to just the county executive. We had between 62 and 77 days period of time for the special. Now, Maxwell said the county was required to pause during that period to break for last week's general election, which is why this particular race was not on the ballot last week and will have a special election next month. And because it's only one race, many municipalities will only be opening one polling place. For example, here in the city of Waukesha, all voters will be voting at City Hall. Reporting live in Waukesha, Brett Lemoine, Fox 6 News. All right, Brett, thank you. Talk a little green and gold. Now the Green Bay Packers are 6-3 after getting a big old win over the New England Patriots. That's the good news. The bad? They're still in last place in the tightly contested NFC North. This is a juggernaut, this conference. Now the green and gold have to get ready for a big showdown against Minnesota. Brandon Cruz is here with a breakdown of yesterday's victory and a look ahead. Yeah, if one cliche rings true, the NFL is a week-to-week league, and the Packers have put together consecutive weeks of very good performances. Sunday's win in New England was historic. For the first time since 1962, the offense put up 45 points and more than 450 yards of total offense. Jordan Love was a huge reason why, throwing for 372 yards. 343 of those were to his top two receivers, Matthew Golden and Christian Watson. They also had more than 100 yards on the ground for the first time this season, despite losing Josh Jacobs to a broken finger. And in a perfect day from Trace McCann, the Packers were able to put together their most complete win of 2026. For Christian Watson, it's the steadiness of love that has them in this position. I can't ask for much more. I can't ask for much more. You know, I think that, you know, at the beginning of the year when we were going through, Thank you. Obviously not being the team that we wanted to be, I think that he was still doing everything that he could to play his best ball and doing everything that he could. So just to see him continue to stay even, keeled throughout the season, whether it's positive or negative, you can't ask for a much better leader, a much better quarterback and a much better driver of this offense throughout the season. And the Packers will take on the Vikings Sunday at noon. Now, get this, the Vikings have a short week. They play tonight against Buffalo. You can see the game Sunday right here on Fox 6. We will wrap up all of our coverage with the Fox 6 Sports Blitz. That's Sunday night at 1030. Guys, back to you. This one may go down to the first week in January, Brandon. I would think so. I mean, right now, if you look at this division, everybody is playing unbelievable football. You compare that to the NFC South, where all the teams only have three wins. It's out. Are you... Are you emotionally prepared for this? No, no, no. You just went through the Brewers. We've got to get you ready for the Packers run. Smelling salts, lavender, whatever. We had a fairly mild weather over the past several weeks. Things are changing, though. Yeah, Tom, when the Packers face off against the Vikings, what's that going to feel like? Probably fall, right? Oh, bundle up by Sunday. Look at this, though. Are you kidding me right now? Is this not gorgeous? We have a beautiful night on the way, but a big cool down coming up. We'll talk more about that. With my boys, coming up after the break. A man who's convicted of sexually assaulting a woman and girl is sentenced in court. So, what is the former co-owner of a Lower East Side restaurant saying? Our Bill Miston has the full story next. A former co-owner of a Lower East Side restaurant is going to spend 20 years in prison. A jury today convicting Kevin Lopez, or I should say in September convicted him of sexually assaulting a woman and a girl. As Bill Missette explained, Lopez maintains his innocence at his sentencing today. I still claim my innocence, but I can understand this whole process has been heavy on them. 37-year-old Kevin Lopez spoke to the court after a jury convicted him in September of three counts of sexual assault related to the March 2024 assault of a minor and her sister who was drunk and unconscious. Lopez and a friend were out at a bar when they picked up two women and later went to the restaurant Lopez co-owned with his mother along with one of the women's 14-year-old sister. The group drank at the closed restaurant until 4 a.m. before going to a woman's apartment. That's where prosecutors say Lopez assaulted one woman and then assaulted her sister. I don't think the jury's verdict reflects the actual circumstances of what occurred that night. Lopez's defense attorney said he plans on appealing the case and noted inconsistencies in the victim's testimony and evidence of the victim's sexual and mental health not allowed at trial. Now that this part is behind us, we can learn to move forward from here. This next part will be difficult. Not just for me, but for my loved ones. I'm not judging you as the morality police, but you made all kinds of bad decisions. The judge said there are always inconsistencies in trials, but he can't ignore a jury's result. That the father of four, business owner, and otherwise law-abiding person suffering the consequences from that night. One dumb decision. Over the course of sometimes minutes or hours or one day or one incident can change the trajectory of one's life. Lopez will spend 20 years in prison and 12 years on extended supervision. However, Lopez, who is in the country illegally, could face deportation once his time in prison is complete. There were or are immigration issues. That was another damn good reason not to be at 4 or 5 in the morning drinking with at least one underage person. In the establishment that you own. In Milwaukee, Bill Missette, Fox 6 News. Well, we just, oh, it's behind you now. I was going to say, we just saw the most beautiful sunset on this Monday. We'll call it a magical Monday. How you doing, Tom? Hey, I'm doing good, you guys. Voice aside, but laryngitis is slowly improving, so bear with me with that. Let me step out of the way. This is gorgeous. I mean, you talk about... Amazing. City lights coming on, the sunset brilliant, which we're almost an hour past, by the way. Sunset was a little after 4:30, which is wild, So all right, let's talk about the stats today. 60, that was our high. Why is that important? Look how far above average we are today. Keep that 51 degree number in the front of your head for when we get to the sixth day, because Things are changing. 33 are low this morning. Now. We hit 32 for a low Saturday morning. So second coldest here. It was a cold one this morning. 636 our sunrise, and there's the sunset, 434. All right, here's another view. Again, let me step out of the way. Isn't that beautiful? Watercolor sky there. Last bit of twilight for us here. 54 degrees, that's our current temperature. The wind is out of the south. Dew points are in the upper 30s. So that means it's not going to be as cold tonight as it was last night. Dew points are a little higher. So we'll end up around 38 to 40 for a low by morning and air pressure starting to drop. Temperatures, 50s across the board. New Berlin, you're down to 50. Walworth, 51. We're all dropping into the 40s overnight tonight, even upper 30s for a few areas. Just a couple of high clouds, but that's not a big deal for us. Let's get into Sky Vision Plus because we have one storm system, just one, this week. But it's going to be impactful, but maybe not in the way you think. Let me explain. All right, clear skies tonight, sunny skies for tomorrow. Gorgeous winds coming in out of the northwest, temperatures in the low 60s. Now, as we go into Wednesday, here comes this storm system, but not much precipitation from it. Just a couple of light rain showers out of it. Not a big deal. Highs in the mid 50s, but watch this. You ready for the cooler air behind the system? Remember that 51 degree average high? Look at this. Below average Thursday straight through the weekend. 40s for highs starting on Thursday. Oh yeah, fall is really blowing in for us here. All right, you're up to date with the latest forecast. More news on the other side of the break. Today we expect to get a trial date for Tyler Robinson, the man accused of assassinating Charlie Kirk more than a year after the conservative political activist was shot and killed while speaking at Utah Valley University. Fox's Amalia Roy live in Utah with when we can expect a trial here. Amalia. reading his ruling aloud to the courtroom today. Judge Tony Graff said that there are 105 days that he has reserved for this trial, putting an end date around late October 2028. Now in finding this schedule, he did have to put together three very different timelines between the defense, the prosecution and Erica Kirk's team. This trial setting and case management order's intent is to ensure that the constitutional rights of Mr. Robinson and Mrs. Kirk are upheld at every junction. Each party is treated with the dignity and respect they are due as they are human beings and that the Sixth Amendment right is protected. Robinson faces multiple charges, the most serious being aggravated murder, a capital felony. This means he's eligible for the death penalty. Last month, there was a three-hour hearing to decide a trial schedule where the defense requested a start date of late 2029, arguing that because it's a capital case, they need more time to prepare and manage attorneys' conflicting schedules, predicting a six- to seven-month-long trial. The prosecution proposed starting in January of 2028 holiday disruptions. Meanwhile, an attorney for the Kirk family urged for a trial as early as October of 2027. Judge Graff's ruling found a middle ground between these different interests. This date allows for hearings after Mr. Novak's expected federal trial, gives counsel 49 calendar days, seven weeks after questionnaires are due on May 3rd, 2028, and gives the parties a date for securing witnesses and experts. Following the ruling today, Erica Kirk released a statement over X, calling the decision to not have the trial begin until 2028 disappointing, but thanking everyone for their support for her family. Judge Graff did add that if at any point anyone wants to push the trial any further back, that Erica Kirk would have the right to weigh in. Mary? So, Molly, what can we expect next here? We can expect that there are many different mini deadlines that Judge Graff did build in to make sure that people are on track for that June start date. We know that the next actual hearing is not until January of 2028. All right. Thank you for the update there, Amalia, in Utah. Thank you. Well, many people want to get their hands on one cookie book and they're willing to wait for it. We're going to take you to the distribution event out in Waukesha for the WeEnergies coveted cookbook. It's coming up next after the break. Now at 530, we have a clear night ahead. Yeah, it's going to be a beautiful sky, but dark, Tom? Yeah, well, it's typically dark at night, right? But extra dark tonight. What do I mean by that? New moon. So there's no moon out there, so it's going to be plenty dark. So if you're out later this evening, maybe walking the dog, Saturn will be visible in the southwest sky. Mars will be in the eastern sky early in the morning. So those are the two planets to look for there. And the International Space Station flyover, that comes in on Friday. So if our skies are clear, which by that point they should be, we have a system coming in later on this week, but that's our next International Space Station flyover there if you're interested. Saturn this evening, Mars overnight. More on this late-week cool-down coming up in a few minutes. Back over to you. All right, we'll see you in a bit. Thank you, Tom.

Online sports betting is still a long way away from reality in Wisconsin. And a lawsuit against it won't be settled anytime soon. Jason Calvey in the newsroom tonight with what comes next. I imagine the changing legislature plays some role here. Well, it does, but there's really two hurdles before online sports betting comes to your phone or computer. State and federal approval, so that would probably mean the new governor will need to be approving that deal with the tribes, and then there's also this lawsuit. Today, the case got bigger, and now we know it won't be settled until the spring. Back in April, the legislature and Governor Tony Evers approved a new law. It opened the door to online sports betting. Before there's actual online sports betting, the state and feds need to sign off. And first, Governor Tony Evers asked the state's 11 tribes to agree on how online sports betting will all play out, how it'll all work. Once that's done, then the governor will need to renegotiate the compacts. Those are those formal agreements with each tribe. And then guess what? The federal government would still need to sign off. The second hurdle for online sports betting is a lawsuit. In August, the Wisconsin Institute for Law and Liberty sued on behalf of the Brown County Taxpayers Association and Citizens Defending Liberty. They argue the law breaks the Wisconsin Constitution. The Wisconsin Department of Justice is defending the law. And today, Waukesha County Judge Arthur Melvin let eight tribes join the case as interveners. That means they'll be helping defend the online betting law. That includes the Forest County, Pottawatomie, Ho-Chunk, and Oneida Nation. Now, the lawyers fighting the law also say they need to amend their lawsuit to take into account the state's new constitutional amendment. Those are the results on your screen there, which will ban the state from giving preferential treatment based on race or other protected classes. The lawsuit against the law won't be settled until next spring. The judge is having the parties take turns laying out their arguments and briefs. And then the judge says he'll hear oral arguments in April and then likely rule in May. Ted? Ted? It's soap. A prevalent online betting, you see it on every sporting match you watch. I think a lot of people are surprised to learn you can't legally do it here in Wisconsin. Yeah, it is against the law in Wisconsin. This was something that was debated in April. Ted, you had mentioned at the beginning, if the new legislature will play a role in this. No, not really, because it's all now the tribes negotiating with the governor, likely the future governor, Governor-elect David Crowley. They'll have to negotiate those compacts, each of them separately, and then each of those compacts will go to the federal government. The federal government, which they'll have to sign off before you'll have sports betting here in Wisconsin. Plus, there's this whole lawsuit. All right, Jason, we'll be looking for updates. Thank you. The Stars and Stripes Honor Flight makes a major announcement at Mitchell International Airport today. Yeah, their focus, an expansion of flight eligibility guidelines. I am pleased to announce that we're extending this program to include veterans who served in the Cold War and Desert Shield and Desert Storm era with service dates through July 31, 1991. To those veterans, thank you for your service. For many Cold War veterans, service meant being ready day after day for something everyone hoped would never happen. It meant standing watch, training, and doing work that kept others safe. Much of that work took place far from home and out of the public view. That makes it all the more important to recognize it today. For those who served in Desert Shield and Desert Storm, we honor the many ways you answered the call. We stream this morning's press conference. We have that on the Fox Local app. And with Veterans Day on Wednesday, they are opening up applications starting today. Veterans and their families can find application information on the Stars and Stripes Honor Flight website. Port Milwaukee celebrates the completion of a record-breaking 2026 cruise season. The Department of City Development says Milwaukee welcomes nearly 20,000 passengers from around the world. Throughout the season, Port Milwaukee recorded 62 cruise ship calls between eight individual vessels. This season alone also marked a milestone with the arrival of the American Cruise Lines, which launched its Great Lakes itineraries through Port Milwaukee this year. It is so beautiful to look out and to see the ships. They're so majestic, looking at the cream city. If you're not into cruise ships, they're impressive to see on the first thing. You're like, whoa, I didn't know they were that big. If they're smart, they'll work in like a brewer's cruise, like come to Milwaukee, go down to American Family Field, see a game, and then take off for Toronto on the boat. Just a thought. The brew crews, the brew crews. They could call, yeah, the men's something. Or brew cruise. I mean, I got it. Oh, yeah. Yeah, it's good. Get ready to save money the next time you fill up your gas tank. I always have to. I wind up you, don't I? That never works. Average gasoline prices in Milwaukee have fallen about 30 cents per gallon in the last week. The average now $3.96, according to GasBuddy's price reports. The cheapest station in the city was priced at $3.59 per gallon. That was yesterday. Prices in Madison are comparable to Milwaukee, but you can expect to pay more. Or if you are driving to Rockford or Chicago. It's one of the hottest things right now, the 2026 WeEnergy's cookbook. Yeah, the books are available on designated dates and times throughout the state in Waukesha. Look at this. This is the line. People waited outside the Waukesha County Expo today. Our Brett Lemoine says traffic was backed up on Northview and Pewaukee roads, and roads were closed all around the building. One person sharing why people are so willing to wait for hours just to get their hands on this annual classic. There's always good recipes in there. It's always fun to try new things. I have friends that actually get together and they each make a different cookie recipe out of the book for the year and then we save the ones. I found a really good one last year. So it's a tradition. Yeah it is. We've got to find a way to be a part of that, right, Taste Testers, Mary and Ted? I'm in. We have a link to the full distribution schedule where you can see the dates and times. The book will be in your area. Just head to the Vox Local app. That would be the best job ever, wouldn't it, Taste Tester, for the WeEnergies cookbook? I'd love it. Speaking of the jobs, pressure comes with the gig in the NFL, but one Packer is actually thriving on the pressure. And he's getting help from the pressure his defense is providing. Brandon Cruz has it all next in Fox Sports. You're watching Fox 6 Sports with Brandon Cruz. From the start of the season, opposing defenses have been blitzing Jordan Love. After the loss to the Falcons in Week 3, his ability to handle it has improved dramatically, including in yesterday's win over the Patriots, where he dominated the Patriots' defense. I just think that he's being decisive. He's obviously throwing the ball with great accuracy, but it's his ability to stand in there under duress, knowing that he might take a shot and get the ball out of his hands. And I think the guys down the field are making plays for him as well. The Packers defense also putting a lot of pressure on Drake May along with the sacks and incompletions it created. It led to four turnovers. Xavier McKinney picking off May twice leading to 14 Packers points. Evan Williams also had an interception and was all over the field wreaking havoc. Isaiah McDuffie forced a fumble and recovered it. That too led to a Packers touchdown. I think when we're able to, you know, affect the game early, you know, that changes the momentum of the game. We get those turnovers, you know, that allows our offense to get the ball back and go down there and score. And obviously, you know, you're able to see like the momentum shift early from the jump. So I think when we're able to do that, knowing who we have on the offensive side of the ball, knowing who our quarterback is, knowing who our weapons are on the offensive side of the ball, it's always going to be a good deal for us. Up next for the Packers is the Vikings. They'll play at Lambeau Field on Sunday. And you can see the game right here on Fox 6. Kickoff is at noon. And then be sure to join us on the Fox 6 Sports Blitz that Sunday night at 1030 as we will have an in-depth conversation about the game. And what a week it was for Badgers freshman Ryan Hopkins, the quarterback making his first career start in leading Wisconsin to a 31-10 win over Rutgers at Camp Randall Stadium. He threw for 241 yards and three touchdowns, the third most yards for a Badgers freshman in his debut since 1990. He will lead the Badgers into Maryland on Saturday. Ten games into this season, the Bucks are just 1-9. Last night, the Celtics handed them their fourth straight loss at home. It was a similar script as many of their losses. They start out very strong, but couldn't keep the momentum. We were moving the ball pretty well. We definitely got some stops, but didn't sustain it when the second quarter came around. We just got to be better collectively as a team, first and second unit, and having that sense of urgency, especially getting a good team like that down 26, ending the first quarter, what, 27 to 25. It's not the most encouraging thing, but back to the drawing board. The Bucks play the Knicks tomorrow night in New York. That's it for sports tonight. More with Ted and Mary on the other side of this break. A political showdown brewing over Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth as lawmakers push to impeach him over the war in Iran. As Fox's Jared Halpern reports, President Trump is standing by his Pentagon chief while pursuing diplomacy to end the conflict. Shipping through the Strait of Hormuz is slowing to a near standstill, and Iran reports new American strikes near the critical waterway. Monday, Secretary of War Pete Hegseth defended the Trump administration's ongoing war with Iran. The things that we've accomplished through Midnight Hammer and Absolute Resolve and Southern Spear and Epic Fury are things that will change the face of the globe. Hegseth's remarks coming as dozens of incoming lawmakers arrived on Capitol Hill for orientation, most of them Democrats, top of mind this week, forcing a House vote on articles of impeachment against Hegseth. This resolution is brought by a Republican member of Congress, and it's my expectation That there will be Republican members of Congress who will join. In the effort to try to pass the resolution. Democrats accused Hegseth of waging war in Iran without congressional authorization. Monday, President Trump met with Qatar's prime minister as efforts to end the war ramp up following last week's midterm elections. Despite calls for Hegseth's removal, the president tells 60 Minutes he still has confidence in his Pentagon chief. People have called for his resignation. Do you have confidence in him? Do you blame him? I do. We've won two wars. You credit Pete Hegseth for that? No, but he was a part of it. Hegseth will hold his first Pentagon news conference in months to discuss the impeachment vote. At the White House, Jared Halpern, Fox News. All right, Mary, I'm going to let you decide something as we go into weather. Okay. I could rub two pieces of sandpaper together and you can read the highs and lows. Sound effects or hold up cue cards. Or we could let Tom give it a go. Your call. Oh. Okay, this. It'd be more fun to watch him, wouldn't it? Okay. Than us stumble through it. Watch me suffer. Watch me suffer, you know. We know you're a trooper. We know you're fighting laryngitis. We're not making fun of you. A little bit. You know, and it's funny, it gets me once a year. Always gets me, and, you know, I throw everything at it. Yeah, I had a bout of it. It's no fun. When you speak for a living, it's not great. Yeah. Well, the thing is, neither one of you said, where'd you get the sandpaper? That's a good point. That is a good point. Ask us. Gus's workshop. Yeah, ask us. Yeah, it's still there. It's still there. Absolutely. All right, let's talk about the weather here, show you what's going on. We do have a cold front off to our west. That's going to come through tonight, but really with little fanfare. So not too concerned about that. Temperature-wise today, up to 60 for a high. Nine degrees above average. Beautiful day. With that sunshine today, here's a live look over the Marquette Interchange. Again, please pardon my voice here. 60 degrees, that was our high. 33 our low this morning. There's our average, 51. Sunrise, 636. Sunset, 434. Looking straight south to downtown tonight. Skies are clearing out. We're at 54 degrees. Dew points in the 30s. Wind out of the south, and with that front coming through tonight, the air pressure will drop a little bit, but won't be a big deal. All right, so currently, look at this, New Berlin, you're at 48 already, 47 Walworth. That's because with the clear skies, the heat from the day radiates out to space after sunset. So that's why we're cooling down so much here. High temperatures today, cooler north, warmer down to the south. A couple of clouds came through this afternoon, not a big deal. And it's not going to be a big deal here into tomorrow as we have a lot of sun on the way. Let's take a look at Sky Vision Plus. Let's talk more about what we're expecting here. Clear skies tonight. Sunny tomorrow, in fact, abundant sunshine, 61 for a high tomorrow. Now, as we go into Wednesday, slight chance we see a couple of rain showers. I don't think it's going to be a big deal. The big deal, you ready for this? Remember, 51 is our average high. Look at this. 61 tomorrow, 56 on Veterans Day, just a few rain showers, 42 for a high on Thursday. That's the cool down. And that comes in all the way through the weekend. A lot of sun by the weekend as well. But boy, we're getting a little chilly later on this week. But hey, no snow on the way, guys. Back to you in the studio. OK, Tom, thank you so much. We have some breaking news out of West Bend. Police tonight confirming the suspect involved in the death investigation. He's been identified as 54-year-old David Slanikowski. Four people were found dead in the home Saturday. A man, Slanikowski, a woman, a boy, and a girl. The dog also died. The identities of the other victims have not yet been released. A gun was found inside the home. That investigation is ongoing. It is a historic game day tradition for Wisconsin Badger football fans heading to Mickey's Dairy Bar before kickoff. That is if you can get in. This year, though, the famous spot across the street from Camp Randall has been closed. Closed in July, actually, when its new owners retired and new owners took over. The diner has been a hot spot for eight decades. Eighty years. Well, now fans are waiting to see when it reopens and if there's going to be any changes there. I hope that the new owners come in and keep it the same. Continues to be a good meeting place for Badger fans. They have big shoes to fill. The new ownership group includes Badgers legend and NFL Hall of Famer Joe Thomas and current linebacker Mason Posa. The Badgers have one home left, one game home left this season, November 27th against the rival, the Minnesota Golden Gophers. But, boy, Mickeys, we've all been there, and we all love it. Joe Thomas is a smart guy. He's a smart businessman. In addition to being a Hall of Famer, he knows what that place is. He knows what it means. And I wouldn't be surprised if nothing changed. If it remains cash only, the menus on the wall, pancakes the size of a manhole cover, it's the best. We'll be right back. Now I'm thinking of chocolate milkshakes. Chocolate milkshakes. The pancakes are great. The food's really good. Every Sunday in college. Every Sunday. Every Sunday. While the weather's getting a little colder, organizers are planning ahead for Summerfest 2027. Senior Director of Marketing joined our Maddie Stoke on Fox 6 Now this afternoon, and Maddie asked about new things that people can expect next year. I think one thing that we are always focused on is trying to enhance our fan experience every single year, every single year. You know, our fans are obviously the most important thing that we have. They're the ones who run the festival, who make the festival happen every single year. So for us, yeah, 100 percent. We're always looking at how we can bring in new food vendors or continue to grow on the food items. Our existing ones, existing food vendors have, you know, bring in new experiences. You know, I think it's one of those things we always want to make sure the festival stays true to its roots. Also, it was fun and exciting each and every year.
