This is your WGBW Daily News Roundup for The Talk of Green Bay, 97.9 FM and 50.90 AM.
From the 97.9 WGBW Newsroom, I'm Connie Feldman with this local news update.
Green Bay Packers leave Pittsburgh with the win for the first time since Bart Starr was
quarterback. In 1970, the pack came out on top of the 35.25 score over the Steelers and
former Packers QB, Aaron Rogers. Micah Parsons achieved his personal goal to sack Rogers
who got sacked two more times by Rashon Gary. Next up for the pack, hosting the Carolina
Panthers at Lambo this Sunday. The Thames may have gotten cold enough to freeze plants,
but the Wisconsin Department of Health Services wants you to keep protecting yourself against
mosquito bites. The advice comes after the State Department of Agriculture, Trade and
Consumer Protection reported a horse in Marathon County tested positive for Eastern,
equine and cephalitis virus or EE. This means there are mosquitoes still present in Wisconsin
that can spread the virus and possibly other illnesses to people and animals. EE is fatal
in most horses showing signs of illness. The virus can be transmitted to people and
animals through an infected mosquito bite. DHS urges people, especially those who spend
time working or playing outdoors, to continue to take steps throughout the fall season to reduce
their exposure to mosquitoes. No one was hurt, but Green Bay Police confirm a shooting
did happen yesterday afternoon on the city's west side. Please say the shooting happened just
before noon, near the 1700 block of Western Avenue. Witnesses say the gunshots were fired
between a car and a person on foot, both allegedly fled the scene. If you have any information,
please are asking you to contact them, use the tip line or call crime stoppers. One person
is dead after water tank exploded early Saturday morning in Door County. A carburet fire
officials say flushing water lines to winterize harbor village resort and campground caused
a 3,000 gallon water tank to explode. Around 7.45 a.m. investigators found a body outside
a storage building that was partially destroyed by the explosion. Authorities have not released
any information about the person who died. Later the same morning, Winnebago County
shares deputies found a man's body floating near a boat launch on Lake Winnebago. Authorities
say they got a call about some suspicious items, possibly clothing floating in the water,
just off shore Saturday morning. Deputies launched their boat and confirmed the reported items
in clothing were actually the body of a man. He was pronounced dead at the scene. Authorities
are not releasing the man's name, pending family notification. Green Bay Police collected
a record nearly 300 pounds of unwanted medications during Saturday's drug take back day this weekend.
Police say officers took in about 275 pounds of unused and expired medications between
three separate drop off sites. While Saturday was a one time event to celebrate drug take
back day, police want to remind you that you can dispose of old unused medications any
week day in the lobby of the Green Bay Police Department between 7 a.m. and 5.30 p.m.

The Packers shut down the Steelers. I am my clements with sports from Pittsburgh where
the Packers beat the Steelers. 35 to 25. Green Bay fell behind 16 to 7.5. Quarterback Jordan
Lung. When we came in locker room, the message was that we just weren't finishing. We weren't
executing our plays and weren't locked in on doing the Airbys 111. So there's plays
being made and I think we just weren't executing those and weren't able to stand the field.
So I think the first half went really fast for us as offense. We had one scoring drive.
So I think the message was just do your job lock in and execute.
At 1.11 completed 20 consecutive passes, Aaron Rodgers and why the Steelers offense stalled
in the second half.
Yeah, we had too many penalties, too many negative yards plays and then I wasn't accurate
enough on third down. We weren't creating enough space but we'll look at the film and we'll
get better and we got a good team coming in next week. NBA. The Bucks with the loss on the road
to the Cavaliers. 118 to 113 despite Janus with 40 points with sports on my clements.
