Just a few miles away on the 31st Street exit ramp from the Dan Ryan, fire crews responded to another vehicle on fire. No major lane closures @nbcchicago @TelemundoCHI

Vehicle on fire shut down all lanes of I-90 East heading southbound. Took fire crews roughly 20-25 minutes after fire crews arrived on scene to put it out. all lanes still shut down @nbcchicago @TelemundoCHI

Well y'all - this one has me shocked, sick and completely out of sorts. Kevin Spencer was an amazing & grounded human. He enlightened me spiritually. I feel so connected to him. I'm in & out of crying & feel blessed for all the hugs. Kevin meant a lot to me. I feel he knows that

Friends in the Chicagoland area - please help us find our NBC colleague, Kevin Spencer, by sharing this link. He was last seen Saturday and it's extremely unlike him to not show for work. nbcchicago.com/news/local/nb…

TWO WEEKS until the #NABJ24 conference in Chicago! If you're joining @NABJ, you should pre-register to meet with NBC's hiring leaders: smrtr.io/kndk7 This is the best (but not the only) way to connect with leaders from @NBCNews, @MSNBC, @CNBC, @NBCULocalPR & @NBCSports!
