Man, at that time from what I remember besides the '77 blackout the "Son of Sam was still "loose" out there as we joked...he can strike any f***kin' time tonight. A month later he got caught!!

Have you got any portions of a WABC-7 documentary made that summer with John Johnson, on the crime throughout the city

during the '77 blackout?

Never expected to see an old news report of Larry Kane doing the new on CH7 NY. I recall back at the time seeing him do a news brief on ABC TV. He' s still on the air here in Philly on Comcast and KYW 1060AM though retired. I also heard during his stint in NYC he took a limo there everyday from his home in Philly.
