TYLER POLICE SEEKING MISSING TYLERITE
Tyler Police and other area law enforcement agencies are still looking for a man whose whereabouts are unknown since he was last seen driving near Big Sandy Friday. We received a new photo this morning of Willie Hubert Wingfield, a diabetic diagnosed with dementia. He is described as an African-American with gray hair and brown eyes. He is 5-foot-7 weighing one hundred thirty five pounds. He was last driving a 2000 green Dodge Intrepid, with Texas license plate number 640WFT. Family members told officers that Wingfield was driving from Dallas to Tyler to visit his girlfriend. Anyone with information is asked to contact the Tyler Police Department at 903-531-1000.
BODY OF RICHARD III FOUND UNDER CAR PARK
DNA tests have confirmed that human remains found buried beneath an English car park are those of the country's King Richard III. British scientists announced today they are convinced "beyond reasonable doubt" that a skeleton found during an archaeological dig in Leicester, central England, last August is that of the former king, who was killed at the Battle of Bosworth Field in 1485.
