2 Californian women arrested after traffic stop led police to huge NC drug bust, deputies say

RIGHT NOW. INTENSE HEAT RETURNS AS WE MOVE DAY BY DAY THIS WEEK. COMING UP, I’LL SHOW YOU HOW LONG THIS HEAT WAVE LASTS. AND WHEN RAIN CHANCES WILL BEGIN TO GO BACK UP WITH TEMPERATURES RISING, SO DO HEALTH RISKS. I’M JAMIE JAMYA AND GREENVILLE AND COOLING SHELTERS ARE PREPPING FOR A HEAT WAVE BREAKING NEWS, EXECUTIONS UPHELD. THE SOUTH CAROLINA SUPREME COURT KEEPING THE DEATH PENALTY AFTER YEARS OF BEING ON HOLD. THEY WANT A CHANGE. THEY WANT TO BE FREE. THEY ARE LOOKING FOR BETTER JOB OPPORTUNITIES. FRUSTRATION IS BUILDING AMONG VENEZUELANS IN THE UPSTATE AS THE RESULTS IN THE COUNTRY’S ELECTION ARE STILL UP IN THE AIR, SAVING MONEY ON YOUR POWER BILL. JUST WEEKS AFTER ANNOUNCING A BASE RATE INCREASE, DUKE ENERGY IS NOW HOPING TO LOWER COSTS FOR CUSTOMERS. BUT WE BEGIN TONIGHT WITH BREAKING NEWS AT SIX. TROOPERS ARE INVESTIGATING A DEADLY CRASH ON INTERSTATE 26. THE CRASH IS CAUSING TRAFFIC BACKUPS. OUR NATE STANLEY JOINS US LIVE FROM THE SCENE WITH DETAILS. NATE. TEAM RIGHT NOW I’M STANDING ON THE EASTBOUND SIDE OF INTERSTATE 26 AROUND THE 55 MILE MARKER HERE IN LAWRENCE COUNTY. I’M GOING TO STEP OUT OF THE WAY SO YOU CAN TAKE A LOOK AT WHAT THIS SCENE LOOKS LIKE FROM THE CRASH. THAT HAPPENED EARLIER TODAY. RIGHT NOW THEY ARE WORKING. AS YOU CAN SEE, TO GET THIS TRUCK AND CAMPER OUT OF THE WAY, ONE OF THE VEHICLES INVOLVED IN THIS DEADLY CRASH TODAY, THE WESTBOUND SIDE IS STILL MOVING IN ONE LANE. AS YOU CAN SEE, THAT PACE HAS BEEN PRETTY CONSISTENT THROUGHOUT THIS AFTERNOON. THEY’VE BEEN MOVING AT A PRETTY GOOD SPEED THERE. WE’RE GOING TO TAKE A LOOK AT SOME OF THE VIDEO OF WHAT THIS SCENE LOOKED LIKE WHEN WE GOT HERE, JUST A FEW HOURS AGO. WE’RE TOLD BY OFFICIALS AT THE SCENE WHO STOPPED TO HELP. THIS CRASH DID RESULT IN ONE FATALITY. THEY TELL US A MAN HAD PULLED OVER TO FIX HIS TIRE, A TRACTOR TRAILER THEN SIDESWIPED THE CAMPER WHEN IT LOST CONTROL. IT THEN CRASHED INTO AN EMBANKMENT WHERE IT CAUGHT FIRE. THE DRIVER OF THE TRACTOR TRAILER DIED AT THE SCENE. THE MAN FIXING HIS TIRE. WE’RE TOLD, DID SURVIVE. NOW THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A DEVELOPING STORY AND WE’RE GOING TO CONTINUE TO PROVIDE YOU UPDATES ON AIR AND ONLINE AS THEY BECOME AVAILABLE. FOR NOW, REPORTING IN LAWRENCE COUNTY, NATE STANLEY, WYFF NEWS FOUR. NATE, THANK YOU. TURNING TO WEATHER TONIGHT. IT IS A LIVE SUPER DOPPLER FOUR IMPACT DAY. AGAIN THE HEAT HAS RETURNED AND STORMS ARE POPPING UP ACROSS THE CAROLINAS AND GEORGIA. TONIGHT WE HAVE LIVE TEAM COVERAGE AS THE TEMPERATURES RISE. WE BEGIN WITH CHIEF METEOROLOGIST CHRIS JUSTICE AND CHRIS, THE HUMIDITY HITTING TRIPLE DIGITS. YEAH, MAKING IT FEEL LIKE 100 DEGREES OR ABOVE. IT IS SO, SO HOT OUT. THANKFULLY TODAY WE HAVE LESS THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY. YOU SEE ONE OF THOSE PIECES OF ENERGY WHICH ARE COMMON WHEN WE HAVE HEAT LIKE THIS. THEIR UPPER LEVEL DRIVEN IS JUST KIND OF LIKE A RACE OF STORMS THAT ONES TO OUR SOUTH. WE’VE GOT ANOTHER ONE TO OUR NORTH THAT MAY GRAZE OUR AREA BY TOMORROW MORNING, 5 A.M. THROUGH 10 A.M., MAINLY IN THE MOUNTAINS. A LOT OF THAT DOESN’T SURVIVE THE TRIP DOWN THE MOUNTAIN INTO THE UPSTATE, BUT I’LL SHOW YOU A BRAND NEW COMPUTER MODEL THAT TIMES THAT OUT IN JUST A MOMENT. BUT SO FAR, SO GOOD ON LIVE SUPER DOPPLER FOUR. JUST A FEW SHOWERS. IT’S HOT THOUGH. 92 IN GREENVILLE, 94 IN ANDERSON. ALL RIGHT, BRACE YOURSELF. HERE’S WHAT IT ACTUALLY FEELS LIKE OUTSIDE. OUCH. 102 IN HARTWELL. 101 IN ELBERTON. 93 IN CLEMSON. BUT IT FEELS LIKE 98 IN GREENVILLE OVER THE NEXT 12 HOURS. LOOK FOR THOSE TEMPERATURES TO SIMMER DOWN ONLY SLOWLY IN FACT, ONE OF MY BIGGER CONCERNS DURING THESE HEAT WAVES IS JUST HOW HOT IT IS. EVEN IN THE EVENING, IF YOU DON’T GET RAIN, YOU’RE STILL ROCKING THE 80S ALL THE WAY THROUGH TEN 11:00 AT NIGHT. BUT AS WE KNOW WITH THE HUMIDITY, IT FEELS EVEN HOTTER THAN THAT NOW AS TEMPERATURES SOAR THIS WEEK IN OUR AREA, THERE ARE WAYS THAT YOU CAN STAY OUT OF THIS HEAT AND BE SAFE. OUR JAMYA JAMYA IS LIVE IN DOWNTOWN GREENVILLE RIGHT NOW WITH ONE APPROACH TO HELP YOU STAY COOL. HI JAMYA. HEY, CHRIS. THAT’S RIGHT. THIS HEAT WAVE THAT’S APPROACHING CAN BRING SOME HEALTH DANGERS ALONG WITH IT. SO COOLING SHELTERS ARE OPENING THEIR DOORS, GIVING PEOPLE A PLACE TO GO. THE MIRACLE HILL GREENVILLE RESCUE MISSION HAS OPENED THE DOORS OF THEIR COOLING SHELTER. WE’VE OPENED UP YESTERDAY AND PROBABLY SEVERAL DAYS THIS WEEK, AS WE’RE EXPERIENCING ANOTHER KIND OF ELEVATION IN THE TEMPERATURES TO LET PEOPLE KNOW THEY HAVE A PLACE TO GO WITH SIGNS OUT ALONG THE STREET CORNERS AND THERE ARE A LOT OF FOLKS AROUND THAT ARE AWARE THAT WE PROVIDE THAT SERVICE. WE PUT EMAILS OUT COMMUNICATION TO OUR OTHER HOMELESS SERVICE PROVIDERS SO THEY CAN LET LET THE FOLKS KNOW THAT, HEY, THERE’S A COOL PLACE TO GO. THEIR GOAL IS TO PROVIDE SAFETY AND COMPASSION. WE JUST WANT TO PROVIDE A SAFE PLACE TO COME. FIND A LITTLE BIT OF RESPITE, HAVE SOME WATER, SIT DOWN, LAY DOWN. WE HAVE SOME SNACKS OUT AND IN JUST A COOL AIR CONDITIONED ROOM, THE GREENVILLE RESCUE MISSION TAKES IN MEN AND WOMEN AND SAYS THE COMMUNITY CAN HELP. WE’RE ALWAYS RECEIVING DONATIONS OF WATER AND SNACKS THAT WE CAN GIVE TO THESE FOLKS. AND IF YOU HEAR OF ANYONE OR SEE ANYONE OUTSIDE DURING THIS TIME, THAT LOOKS LIKE THEY COULD USE A COOL PLACE, FEEL FREE TO SEND THEM OUR WAY. AND THE COOLING SHELTER HERE ON WEST WASHINGTON STREET IS OPEN FROM 1 TO 5 P.M. WITH A TEMPERATURE IS 95 DEGREES AND ABOVE. LIVE IN GREENVILLE, JAMYA JAMYA WYFF NEWS FOUR MIA. THANK YOU. BREAKING NEWS OUT OF COLUMBIA TODAY. THE SOUTH CAROLINA SUPREME COURT RULED THE STATE’S DEATH PENALTY IS LEGAL. THIS OPENS THE DOOR TO RESTART EXECUTIONS FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE 2011. THE STATE’S DEATH PENALTY NOW INCLUDES A FIRING SQUAD, LETHAL INJECTION AND THE ELECTRIC CHAIR TO CONVICTED KILLERS FROM THE UPSTATE HAD CHALLENGED THE DEATH PENALTY. GOVERNOR HENRY MCMASTER RELEASED A STATEMENT THAT READS IN PART, QUOTE, THIS DECISION IS ANOTHER STEP IN ENSURING THAT LAWFUL SENTENCES CAN BE DULY ENFORCED, AND THE FAMILIES AND LOVED ONES OF THE VICTIMS RECEIVE THE CLOSURE AND JUSTICE. THEY HAVE LONG AWAITED. IN GREENVILLE COUNTY, A MAN IS BEHIND BARS AFTER A WOMAN WAS STABBED IN THE BACK. DEPUTIES SAY LACY WILLIAMS IS CHARGED WITH ATTEMPTED MURDER. THEY SAY THE STABBING HAPPENED LAST NIGHT AT AN APARTMENT COMPLEX ON BOWLING ROAD, EXTENSION. WHEN THEY ARRIVED, DEPUTIES SAY THEY FOUND A WOMAN STABBED. SHE WAS TAKEN TO THE HOSPITAL. FRUSTRATIONS, SADNESS, ANGER, THOSE ARE THE EMOTIONS SOME VENEZUELANS IN THE UPSTATE ARE FEELING AS THEY WAIT TO SEE IF THERE’S A CHANGE OF LEADERSHIP. AFTER LAST WEEKEND’S ELECTIONS TODAY, THE COUNTRY’S SUPREME COURT WAS ASKED TO AUDIT THE RESULTS AFTER BOTH PRESIDENT NICOLAS MADURO AND THE OPPOSITION CLAIMED VICTORY. OUR REY LLERENA JOINS US LIVE IN DOWNTOWN GREENVILLE WITH MORE REA. IT HAS TO BE AWARE WHAT IS HAPPENING IN MY COUNTRY, VENEZUELA. MAYRA GALLO WITH A PLEA FOR DEMOCRACY TO BE RESTORED TO HER NATIVE VENEZUELA. A LOT OF PEOPLE WANT TO BE FREE. THEY WANT TO CHANGE FOR, UM, DEMOCRACY. THEY WANT TO HAVE BETTER QUALITY OF LIFE. THE OWNER OF BONJOUR MAIN IN DOWNTOWN GREENVILLE IS ONE OF MILLIONS WHO HAVE FLED THE AUTHORITARIAN RULE. THEY ARE CONTROLLING OUR PETROLEUM TO THEIR FRIENDS LIKE RUSSIA, CHINA, MORE THAN HALF OF REGISTERED VOTERS IN VENEZUELA VOTED IN SUNDAY’S PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION. WENDY GARCIA WAS ONE OF THOSE VOTERS. THERE’S AN INDESCRIBABLE ENERGY THAT IS FELT FROM EMOTION, FROM SUPPORT, FROM FAITH, FROM HOPE. IT IS A FEELING OF UNITY THAT IS FELT BETWEEN PEOPLE WHO PASS THROUGH ANY BARRIER. THE COUNTRY’S NATIONAL ELECTORAL COUNCIL, CONTROLLED BY PRESIDENT NICOLAS MADURO’S REGIME, DECLARED HIM THE WINNER. OPPOSITION LEADER MARIA CORINA MACHADO DISPUTED THE CLAIM AND PROTESTS ERUPTED IN MUCHO MOVIMIENTO. THERE IS NOT MUCH COMMERCIAL ACTIVITY AND IT IS LIKE A SIGN OF SUPPORT FROM VENEZUELANS TO CONTINUE THIS PROCESS, GALLO BELIEVES. UNLESS THERE IS A REGIME CHANGE, MORE PEOPLE WILL LEAVE HER NATIVE COUNTRY. WHAT IS HAPPENING IN VENEZUELA IS NOT AN ISOLATED SITUATION. IT’S A GLOBAL, UH, IT’S A WARMING FOR THE ENTIRE WORLD. THAT WAS REY LLERENA REPORTING. THE CARTER CENTER SAYS VENEZUELA’S PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION DID NOT MEET INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS OF ELECTORAL INTEGRITY. AND CANNOT BE CONSIDERED DEMOCRATIC DUKE ENERGY CUSTOMERS. THE COMPANY IS LOOKING TO REDUCE BILLS. IT SAYS THE REDUCTION WOULD ACCOUNT FOR THE LOWER COST OF FUEL USED TO GENERATE ELECTRICITY FOR HOMES AND BUSINESSES. NOW, IF APPROVED, BILLS COULD DECREASE ABOUT $20. THE DECREASE WOULD BEGIN IN NOVEMBER. IT WOULD ALSO SIGNIFICANTLY OFFSET THE PREVIOUSLY AN
