Alex perez, back on the case at the house where it might have all started. Reporter tonight, our first glimpse at ground zero in flint, michigan. The owner of this house, leeanne walters, called the epa last spring to say that her children had been diagnosed with lead poisoning. She said city officials had already told her the pipes inside her home were the problem. She knew all her pipes were plastic. No way its coming from the home . No way. It was coming from the outside. We knew there had to be a lead line somewhere. Reporter it was this epa investigator that performed tests and found the high levels of lead were from switching the citys water from lake huron to the flint river. Around this time, complaints skyrocketing. The foulsmelling water coming from the taps. He made a stunning discovery. The river water was not being treated with special additives that help keep the lead out. Its inconceivable not to have a system with lead Service Lines not to have the treatment system in place. Reporter since then, life has been a scramble for residents. Parents testing their children, and lining up for their one case a day ration of bottled water.

Reporter investigators say 60yearold David Hans Arntson flew from san diego to portland, oregon, and then back to california in 2014, when he was selected for a random drug and alcohol test. He failed the alcohol test twice. In court documents, arntson told Alaska Airline officials he didnt have anything to drink. But after a long investigation he was finally charged. The faas stance is that there is an eighthour rule from bottle to throttle. Reporter the faa says last year, more than 11,000 random alcohol tests were conducted on pilots, and 13 tested above the legal limit for flying. If the pilot is convicted, he faces up to 15 years in prison. David . Kayna, thank you. Theres still much more ahead on world news tonight this friday. The deadly listeria outbreak, and the recall.
