    Two of the students wounded in last week's Michigan State campus shootings have had their conditions upgraded by hospitals. One is now in fair condition, another is serious but stable.

    Two weeks after the devastating earthquake in Turkey and Syria, the death toll stands at more than 46-thousand, and still climbing as crews continue to go through the rubble of thousands of buildings.

Things are worse in war-torn Syria.

    Some pretty sophisticated counterfeit money has been passed around Elkhart the last few weeks. Police say the criminals apparently take real ten dollar bills, wash them to remove all the ink, and reprint them at 50s or 100s. That means they pass the usual pen test for real money paper, and look very real. A number of businesses in the Elkhart area are now refusing to take any bills higher than 20s from customers, after they got burned.


    The state of Indiana has agreed to implement changes to its absentee voter system to better accommodate people with disabilities. Until now, voters who can't see well had to have a poll worker visit them at home to assist with voting. Under the agreement, the state will implement a computer system compatible with technologies already out there, so people can truly vote privately. This all came about as a result of a 20-20 lawsuit by several disabled voters.


    In addition to his involuntary manslaughter charges, actor Alec Baldwin now faces a lawsuit by Halyna Hutchins' family for her death on the set of the film "Rust" in New Mexico. Her parents and sister are being represented by celebrity attorney Gloria Allred. The suit alleges negligence, battery, intentional affliction of emotional distress, and more.

    Parents and teachers from South Bend schools that could soon be closed or repurposed sounded off at a community meeting last night, pleading for the system to preserve neighborhood access to schools, along with programs they say can and should serve students across the district. South Bend schools are struggling to cope with continuing enrollment declines and the resulting loss of state funding that comes with it, plus the effect of tax caps on the budget. Many schools have far fewer students than they could handle.


    The death toll in that big earthquake in Turkey and Syria now tops 15 thousand, as hope diminishes of finding people alive in the rubble of hundreds of buildings across southern Turkey and northwest Syria.
