WLOSers had Sheraldo live outside Mission Hospitals tonight, where the Rev. Billy Graham is staying after suffering from intestinal bleeding. Sheraldo quoted hospital spokeswoman Merrell Gregory as saying his injuries weren’t life-threatening. He’ll be in the hospital for several days to recover, Sheraldo said. He also noted that several family members who just happened to be in town are at his bedside.

We’ll keep an eye on this one. As we all now, the 88-year-old Montreat evangelist is frail and just lost his wife, Ruth.

In other news, there was something about vandalism at a cemetery in Waynesville; a preacher on a roof top in Balfour to raise money for his church; and a report from Kassandra Pride, who went over to the airport to talk to Civil Air Patrol pilots training there.
