there..., including weapons and liquor-related charges. the assistant principal here tipped off a school resource officer leading to the boy's arrest today. police say that's when they found him with the gun... and the cup of wine. police tell us... yesterday after school the boy pointed the toy gun at some other kids and allegedly told one of them quote "i am going to shoot you." police tell us they have taken the boy to juvenile detention... on those five charges. we're going to keep working the story. as soon as we get anything new... we'll pass it right along. live in mount healthy... ben katko... fox19 now. this is the third school incident today. in addition to the mt. healthy scare, a 14-year-old student brought a spring loaded pellet gun to clermont northeastern today to give to a friend. there was no threat made, so no charges are being filed. that's not the case with an incident at wyoming high

yesterday ruby took to twitter saying he had oj'd trump from his restaurants for that comment.. and my did the flood gates open with comments.. including death threats against ruby. at the time of the trump comment.. trump was talking about senator john mccain...but today, ruby told us....he takes it personally. after matt's death, he became close with the maupin's...and says... i simply asked for mr. trump to apologize. and while he thinks those captured are not heroes, i think matt was a hero. and while mr. trump likes the ones " that aren't captured" i liked met him. he died serving my country mr. trump, i welcome you to have dinner at any of our places...i simply ask you to talk to matt's dad, my friend keith, first." keith says he doesn't take trump's comments to heart. arose, he'd drive any distance to "there's no filter between here and everything else but i think i would like to talk to him and tell him about all those guys that's missing, because i don't think trump ever served" 8 i'd still like to think

probably never get to meet him, but i've met jeff ruby and jeff ruby is an outspoken guy and i like him and i'd thank him for standing up for matt another thing keith says he is thankful for, is this platform...and awareness about his non-profit, the "yellow ribbon support center". if you'd like to donate or get involved, we've posted that information online on fox19 now dot com. rl mo fox19 now. new at ten new at ten... police are looking for a middletown man... facing child endangering charges ... 20-year-old jesse james mccandless took the two- month-old girl to cincinnati children's hospital last month... and said she stopped breathing according to police. police say the girl had rib fractures.. and a blood vessel burst in her eye.. charges were filed today... and a warrant has been issued for mccandless arrest.

reluctant to spend. "what's your biggest fear when it comes to money?" and "what's your top financial goal?" are also important questions to askand answer. and both spouses need to stay on top of the family finances. it's also helpful to set "specific goals". if one of you is a spender and the other is a saver, simply promising to "spend less" or "save more" won't work. insteaddecide on a concrete goallike "spending five percent less" each month, or putting aside a set amount for a new purchase or vacation, if your finances are in good shapeand penny-pinching is the problem. and if the fights happen a lot, maybe they're about more
