Tia after another report of someone approaching a student on her walk home from school. Police say this happened in the area of yale avenue in elyria, which is near the east park recreation center. Cleveland 19s Nichole Vrsansky is reporting live in elyria this morning. Parents in elyria, this School District there, they got a robocall warning them about this nichole parents are on high alert. Students as well being warned to school. This incident is a little different than those in the past. The description of the suspect is different. Obviously, this involving an Elyria High School student, but heres what we know from the Elyria SchoolFacebook Page. The student was offered a ride by the suspect on her way home from school yesterday. That suspect is described as a white male with a white beard and a full head of white hair. He was driving an older black car with black tinted windows. The student is safe. Thats the good news. The Facebook Comments are pouring in on that schools web page. Object just viously parents are concerned. A week ago a man described in his 30s wearing a dark hoodie tried to pull a 10yearold girl from her bedroom window here in elyria, and then later that same day in the lorain School District just seven miles away, that School District went into separate incidents were grabbed by a suspect. That suspect also described in his 20s or 30s wearing dark clothing, a dark mask. All those students were able to fight off their attacker and escape to safety and call police, but certainly this is very disturbing. Were told Elyria Police will have heightened patrols around the schools today, but certainly parents and students on high alert, especially on a day when its gorgeous outside. You think that students would want to be outside walking to school on a day like today. Live in elyria, nichole studio. Brian for weeks browns fans day. The day the browns cut Johnny Manziel and make a real and symbolic cut with the tortured recent past of the franchise. Will the browns actually release manziel, or do they have other plans. Hue jackson, when he was hired in midjanuary, didnt have much to say about Johnny Manziel. After manziel was questioned in regards to an alleged domestic girlfriend. The browns released a statement a few days later, and it wasnt hard to read between the lines. Manziel was going to be cut as soon as league rules allowed. Hue jackson made it clear every time he was asked, like at the nfl combine, that johnnys time was nearing an end. We made a statement two weeks ago about Johnny Manziel, and im going to stand by that. I think his future on our team will be addressed here pretty soon. Brian that day is today, the start of a new league year. Now there is some question, an espn radio report the browns may wait it out and see if anyone bites and sends the browns Something Back for this guy. Its about action. Its about, you know, being accountable and doing what im going to say instead of looking like a jack [ bleep ]. Brian the browns made a commitment to character. Now the question is, will they prove that at 4 00 this year starts . The second any news breaks on the future of Johnny Manziel in the big city, we will let you know with a push alert on the cleveland 19 mobile app. Thats a Free Download in the app store. Tia people are talking about an upset win in the state of michigan this morning. Bernie sanders edged out Hillary Clinton by 2 in last nights primary. It was a split between the two democratic pms as Hillary Clinton dominated in mississippi. She racked up 82 of the vote there. As far as delegates go, clintons total of 1,221 more than double sanders total of 571. As for the republicans, another big night for donald trump. While you were sleeping he won the hawaii caucus adding to primary wins in michigan and mississippi. Ted cruz did add another notch to his belt beating trump in the idaho caucus. As for our governor, john kasich, he finished third in last in idaho and hawaii. Brian those losses now add even more important to kasichs campaign right here in his home state. Q. Mccray joins us now. Q. , kasich said ohio or bust, and thats exactly where we are, right, this morning . Q. thats right. Our governor feels very optimistic, and heres why. Were six days away from the ohio primary, and the race between trump and kasich couldnt be any tighter. A new poll by Public Policy polling shows trump at 38 and kasich at 35 with a 4 margin of error, which is basically a tie, a virtual tie between trump and our governor. Governor kasich kissed the ground when he arrived to his Campaign Stop last night in Broadview Heights. He took questions from the audience and walked into the crowd to address people and was very encouraged when he heard what happened in michigan. Now were rising in the polls, and people are starting i tell you something, we did not rise in the polls based on somebody elses terms. Our campaign is rising in the polls becaused on a vision and a positive message and staying out of the mud shief slinging and the negative, okay . Were doing it the right way. Q. today governor kasich will take his campaign to illinois. Hell be back in the Buckeye State on friday, though, when he will hold a town hall meeting near dayton. Guys. Brian thanks very much. Yesterday morning we told you about confusion on the Ohio Republican ballot with two boxes to choose your candidate. Ohio gop chairman matt borges got back to us to explain how voters should fill out the absentee ballot. Vote for your candidate twice. Once in the atlarge area and once in the district area. The atlarge area account will determine the candidate who gets all of ohios 66 delegates. Tough year continues for rock n roll fans, right . Another member of the rock hall passed away overnight.

The rain moves out by mid to late morning on your friday, but sharply cooler as we round out the work week, so enjoy today, this weekend we warm back up, but rain moves back in. So please do me a favor and go outside and enjoy the weather today. I want you to have a nice day in the warmth. Laura. Laura all right.

For the fourth time in the last three weeks police in Lorain County warn parents and children to be careful after a man approached an Elyria High School student as she walked home. Brian it was on yale avenue Nichole Vrsansky is live from Elyria High School this morning. Nikki, police say this incident is probably not is probably not tied to the other incidents, right . Nichole it sounds a lot different. The suspect description is different. This time it involved an Elyria High School student, but this is scary stuff nonetheless if youre a parent. If youre a student in this district on high alert. Emails went out and text alerts went out. Its on the districts Facebook Page warning parents about what happened yesterday. Heres what we know from the Elyria Schools Facebook Page. A female student, High School Student was approached on her way home from school yesterday by a suspect who asked her if she wanted a ride home. Hes described as a white male with a white beard and a full head of white hair. He was driving an older black car with tinted windows. Now, the student is okay. She immediately called police. Smart thinking, but School Parenting to be cautious about their kids coming and going especially on a day like today when its beautiful outside. Just two weeks ago you remember this. You might remember a man tried to pull a 10yearold from her bedroom window here in elyria. Later that same day in the lorain School District, schools on lockdown there seven miles from here after a man tried to grab three students in separate incidents. The suspects in that case were younger. The suspect in the incident of the 10yearold girl described in his 30s and the incidents grabbing the students 20s and 30s wearing dark clothes and wearing a mask but driving a dark vehicle. All the students luckily in these cases have been able to fight off their attackers and escape safely. I just talked to a parent im sorry. A teacher starting to arrive here at the high school, and very scared. I mean, the talk with the teachers and of parents in this district is theyre on heightened alert. The more they can communicate theyre impressed how the more alerts they sent d out and emails and notify people to watch out for kids coming to and from school, the better they think this could be. Elyria police are expected to step up patrols around schools this morning and also looking out for our kids as well. We know that we have a call in to hear more specifics about what police do have planned today, but certainly more cautious today in the elyria School District. Live in elyria, Nichole Vrsansky, cleveland 19. Brian thank you. Standing room only crowd came out last night to listen to democratic president le candidate Hillary Clinton speak at tric.

I dont know the browns are i dont know the browns that bonus moneys money i was talking about they could save, it really is insignificant to the browns.

While you were sleeping, people in one part of the world got to see a rare sight in the sky. Brian its really cool. In the business we call these live shots, but this reporter almost took a shot while doing a report. Wow, sam, we dont have to worry about that, right .

That will about double funds for the city there. The money is to be used for paving projects starting next year. Brian all right. A close call caught on camera. A tv reporter was recording when this happened. It was a chaotic and confusing situation. Brian wow. That is tough duty there. Thats in california. The reporter was on the side of the road reporting on a Train Derailment when a car accident happened behind him, almost took him out. His cameraman luckily spotted the wreck and at the last second screamed to get out of the way. The video has been seen more than 10 million times on facebook. Tia i know that camera man. California. That was in san francisco, california. When i would go cover the wildfires they always send that guy. Hes an expert on like almost like safety, which is pretty cool. Brian and car wrecks. He get out of the way. I guess he heard it. You could hear the wreck was loud. So that would kind of get you thinking right away. Tia jake said his name was chip. I dont remember his name, but i know that face. Samantha thankfully hes safe today. Glad they were paying attention. Its hard when youre on tv and theres a lot going on. You kind of tune out other stuff. Its good that they were safe and everybody is okay today. Lets take a live look outside here in cleveland. Were definitely aokay.

What a beautiful start. It is going to be another nice day. If you liked yesterday and the this wednesday. Were headed for 72, and thats 1 degree away from the record high in cleveland of 73. Now, the clouds will be thickening up through the day, and you may run into a stray shower or two this afternoon, but todays daylight rain chance is superduper small. Its tonight that the rain chance gets a little bit more impressive. Akron canton. Good morning to you. Exact same thing, increasing clouds and a stray shower is possible this afternoon. Well be around 71, and that is the record high for akron and canton. So were going to challenge some records today just to give you a little bit of perspective as to how unusually warm well be today and tonight. Look at this. 56 in akron, and we have rain moving in through the night. Now, 7 00, 8 00 if you have dinner plans or something going on tonight, maybe the kids have a game and youll be out late, this is not a really impressive just kind of scattered stuff. Overnight after midnight thats when were all fair game for rainshowers. Tomorrow will be a rainy day. Heres the breakdown. Rain in the morning, and rain midday, and then rain through the afternoon. Temperaturewise tomorrow we are just a little bit cooler than today. Well only be in the mid60s. I say only. You know thats still well above average. How much rain will we see if it rains from tonight through tomorrow . Heres future view rainfall. Im thinking up to an inch for most of us, but there could be isolated higher totals on the order of an inch and a quarter. So a soggy day tomorrow. That rain moves out through the morning on friday. Then we may see more showers, guys, this weekend. Enjoy these 70s. Laura i have this live picture up again this morning. We talked about this spot all morning long. Its going on all morning long. 271 northbound right at about broadway, but now is when it starts to cause some problems. Were still blocked off as we get closer and closer to rush hour. Take a look at this map here. 14 Miles Per Hour in the area of this accident now. Earlier on today we didnt see slowdowns, and now theyre here because of so much extra traffic on the roadway. If this is part of your commute headed towards 422, you teal with that slowdown. There it is off to the far right of the map there. Look across the rest of the map. Nothing to be concerned with. We have ontime drive times, and ill show them to you in a moment. Around akron things lood book to do.
