What a day on Sunday, February 8, 2015


A crazy day in Grand Haven on Sunday as a 34-year old man from Michigan drove his pick-up truck through the main gate at Coast Guard Station Grand Haven Sunday morning at around 6:00am.  He broke into the facility and was taken down by Coast Guard duty members and arrested by the Grand Haven Department of Public Safety.

My thanks to the 103.5 WAWL-LP staff for getting down to the station quickly early on a Sunday morning to not only bring you the first coverage of the developing story, but to be able to go down to City Hall for a live press conference update with Chief Jeff Hawke. Great job by everyone here at 103.5 for being on top of the story for our listeners.  Not only on air, but with the website and Facebook updates.  This is what a local station can do for a community when news breaks.
