We have breaking news tonight.
Atlanta Falcons quarterback- former
Virginia Tech star Michael Vick has
been indicted.

KEITH 2-SHOT KEITH 2-SHOT

Court documents filed today claim Vick
was in fact involved in a dogfighting
ring on his Surry County property.

Natasha Ryan has more on this. Natasha
what exactly are the charges against
Vick?

NATASHA

Well Jean and Keith, Vick, also known
as Ookie is charged with one federal
count of illegal dog fighting...That
includes

NATASHA 3-SHOT NATAHSA 3-SHOT

illegal gambling....sponsoring and
exhibiting an animal in an animal
fighting venture......and being
involved in bringing dogs onto the
property specifically for
fighting......

ENG#=1 VO NAT

*CG LOCATOR Surry Co.
File Tape This comes after a few searches on
Vick's property, in which investigators
found pit bulls and dog fighting
equipment.

Vick claimed he rarely visited the
property and his relatives were taking
advantage of his kindness.

But it appears authorities believe
otherwise.

In the court papers, it says Vick
bought pitbulls for the fighting

operation from various locations both
in and outside of the state.

It also says the Surry County
property was bought specifically for
housing the dogs, creating the
enterprise, Bad Newz Kennels.

(END VO) (END VO)

If convicted on all portions of the
charge, Vick could be sentenced up to
six years in prison, 350-thousand
dollars in fines and full resititution.

indictment on our website, so if you

It's a battle over ownership of

The piece chronicles the star
city and its residents over the last
25-years.

It debuted March 31st during the

The project's author and producer

Forest Service Officials say the
fire is actually helping the ecosystem
by allowing nutrients into the ground.

Firefighters are following a
strategy where they maintain the fire,
while letting it run it's course. This
allows them to stay out of harm's way.

Officials explain that this is
not a let-burn strategy, but rather a
plan to monitor the fire as it runs
it's natural path.

The fire now covers almost 400
acres and could burn to cover
11-thousand acres.
