Last night, my longtime radio partner, David Moulton died. For 20 years, he and I did Miller and Moulton. The only reason my name was first is because Miller and Moulton sounded better than Moulton and Miller. Make no mistake, he was top billing.

We have new details from the shooting that killed 17-year old Chris Wilson Jr., who was committed to West Virginia.
A 40-year-old Indiana man has been linked to the shooting, but he mistook Wilson for someone else.

Some big news out of California, as the family of NFL Hall of Famer Eric Dickerson is suing Oaks Christian School.
