1. DNA testing now confirms a Pewaukee native is the sole suspect in the murders of his three young daughters. The Washington State Crime Lab has determined Travis Decker's DNA was detected on the plastic bags found over the girls' heads, as well as cable ties found near their bodies. The Sheriff's Office out in Washington state just revealed the details in a news release. That release says the completion of the DNA analysis provides additional evidence that indicates Decker was the only person involved in the homicides. The girls were found dead back in June near a campground in central Washington. They were just five, nine, and eight. Decker is a former Army soldier, originally from Pewaukee. He has not been found yet.
2. Airports are rolling out a new way to fast-track through security as they get busier. Clear is partnering with TSA to launch new e-gates for Clear Plus members. It means travelers will no longer have to show IDs to TSA officers. Instead, they can verify their identity using a biometric scanner. There will be no interaction with a human, and you go straight to baggage screening. The program is already up and running in Atlanta's airport, with Seattle and Washington rated next before expanding to other cities
3. Downtown Milwaukee's first dog park opens today! This is a project that reshapes the downtown Riverwalk, adding 400 feet of new public access to the route. The dog park is located on Clybourn Street-- right across the river from the Public Market. We talked with Paul Schwartz, Executive Director of the Milwaukee Public Market, ahead of today's grand opening. He was one of the major players in making the downtown dog park happen. Schwartz says this is going to fill a big void downtown. The Grand Opening is at three this afternoon. Expect a ribbon cutting and "Yappy Hour!" The new downtown location requires a County 'dog park pass' that can be purchased on their website. The other really cool aspect of this development, is the "Foxtown Landing", which is slated to open in early 2027. Fromm Family Foods is planning a distillery, pub, restaurant, cocktail lounge, and event center at the space.
