Here's what we know so far.
1:11:05
The ABC news program Nightline
was to be broadcasted live...

1:11:08
from in front of city hall tonight.
1:11:10
The reason? The closing
of the historic Fisher One Plant.

1:11:13
Apparently, moments before
the broadcast...

1:11:15
someone got in the satellite truck
and drove it off, cables and all.

1:11:18
Nightline has had to cancel their segment
from the city of Flint...

1:11:22
and police are looking for a suspect.
1:11:24
Reporting live from city hall in Flint,
I'm Barb Schroeder, TV 12 News.

1:11:29
They caught the unemployed worker
who made off with the Nightline van.

1:11:33
But crime in Flint continued to grow.
1:11:36
One guy thought he was Superman's
cousin and decided to save the town.

1:11:42
He didn't get very far.
1:11:46
He just wanted us to call him Captain Dah.
1:11:49
He said, ''You can call me Dah-Dah,''
whatever that meant.

1:11:54
The old jail couldn't hold...
1:11:56
the increasing number of inmates
the judges were locking up.

1:11:59
So the county built
a new, state-of-the-art jail...

1:12:01
that was five stories high
and filled a city block.

1:12:05
The night before the jail was to open,
the city threw a party...

1:12:08
where couples paid $100
to stay overnight in jail.

1:12:32
When you first come in
from the limo ride...

1:12:35
from the pub-crawling before you get here,
they book you...

1:12:39
they give you a free Breathalyzer test,
and a mug shot...

1:12:43
complete with your fingerprinting.
1:12:57
Why do you want to spend the night
in Flint jail?
