A high-speed chase that began in Mt. Kisco, New York ended in Danbury with the arrest of three Connecticut teens. Police say the suspects, who were first spotted trying to break into cars, fled in an Audi, reaching speeds of 100 miles per hour. A Westchester County helicopter tracked the car across state lines, where Connecticut troopers used stop sticks. The car eventually crashed on Interstate 84, and the teens fled on foot before being caught near Mill Plain Road in Danbury. The 18-year-old driver and two 16-year-old passengers now face multiple charges. The investigation is ongoing.
Ed Histed
Ed launched his radio career in 1975 and has spent more than five decades in the broadcasting industry. During that time, he has served in a wide range of roles including Air Personality, News Director, Sales Manager, Operations Manager, and General Manager at numerous radio stations in various markets across the country. Beyond on-air and management responsibilities, Ed has also worked extensively on the technical side of broadcasting. His background includes RF engineering and information technology, with particular experience configuring digital automation systems and remote voice-tracking platforms used by stations across the country. Ed was also among a select group of industry professionals invited by Google to its California headquarters following the company’s acquisition of Scott Studios. He was one of just 12 broadcasters nationwide chosen to participate in discussions and provide input during the design and rollout of Google’s digital broadcast automation platform. Although the majority of Ed’s career—spanning roughly four decades—was rooted in music radio, he transitioned into news and information programming in 2012. He says the move into spoken-word broadcasting was a natural evolution after decades of experience in multiple areas of the industry.
