GTV NEWS: PREGNANT VICTIM... KIDNAPPED, TORCHED & SHOT *(STILL ALIVE)
Suburban police say a 22-year-old pregnant woman is recovering after being abducted, forced into her car, driven to Detroit, doused with lighter fluid, set afire and shot. Warren police Sgt. Dave Geffert tells the Detroit Free Press the woman is nine months' pregnant and says she and the fetus are doing fine. Geffert says she'd seen a movie with her boyfriend Saturday and was dropping him off at his Warren house when someone came up behind her and bound her with duct tape. The sergeant says she was forced into her car and driven to Detroit, then set afire and shot once in the back. Geffert says the woman rolled on the ground to extinguish the fire and was able to remove the tape and call her mother.

GTV NEWS: SHOOTING... NORTHWEST SIDE GUNRULE
One person was apparently shot on the northwest side of Grand Rapids around noon Monday.
A neighbor in the 1100 block of Lincoln NW, near Leonard, told 24 Hour News 8 he heard "three pops" and saw a brown van in the area. A man jumped out, went into the house, jumped back in the van and left. Other men then fled the house in a grey van.
Police have not yet found a victim, who may have been taken away in another vehicle.
People did come out of the house with their hands up, but they may not have anything to do with the shooting.

GTV NEWS: MAN FACES 20 YEARS FOR A $20 CRACK ROCK!
Federal court documents reveal that one of the men charged in a Grand Rapids bank robbery told police an offer of $20 in crack cocaine convinced him to drive the getaway car.
Emmanuel Butler, 57, pleaded guilty Friday to one count of aiding and abetting in a robbery that occurred on Feb. 17 at the Fifth Third Bank on Michigan Street near Fuller Avenue.
Butler, the court documents show, was arrested on Feb. 17 after a Grand Rapids Police officer noticed his car matched the description of the one believed to be the getaway car in the 5/3rd Bank robbery. The officer ordered the driver and passenger in the vehicle to stop. The passenger fled, but Butler -- the driver -- was arrested.
Butler told investigators that his roommate Andre Price robbed the bank and got away with more than $2,000, the court documents show. Butler said that Price offered him cocaine as payment to use his car and had Butler wait in the car while Price robbed the bank. Butler said that after the robbery, he and Price dropped off a third man -- who was not involved with the robbery -- and went to buy more cocaine.
Butler then said that Price had left the clothing worn during the robbery at a residence on the city's southeast side, the court document show. When police went to that residence on Saturday, they found Price attempting to flee. Price was arrested at the scene.
Additional charges of aiding in a heist at My Personal Credit Union on Plainfield Ave. and being an accessory after the fact in another bank robbery will be dismissed in exchange for Butler's guilty plea.
Butler faces a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison. His sentencing date is scheduled for August 23.
Price had already pleaded guilty to the Fifth Third bank robbery and is set to be sentenced in August--a potential 20-year felony.
However, court records show Price's sentence could be reduced due to his cooperation with authorities to provide information on other crimes.
