<p>A heartfelt plea from <em>Little House on the Prairie</em> star Melissa Gilbert. her husband, actor Timothy Busfield is being held on sex abuse charges and she's asking the judge to take care of him while he awaits a bail hearing. As Jim Moret reports, she's not the only one sending a letter defending Busfield. Busfield denies the charges. And good Samaritans jump in to help a woman who was trapped inside a sinking SUV.  As luck would have it, one was a Navy rescue swimmer who just happened to be having lunch nearby and knew just what to do. He spoke with Ann Mercogliano.  Plus, it was a big moment when Vanessa Williams sang the national anthem at an NBA game. However, there was a bit of an interruption when a heckler, not happy about President Trump's mission to take over Greenland, yelled out right in the middle of the performance. And it's a real-life <em>Stanger Things</em>. Residents in a Connecticut town say they are being driven crazy by an annoying sound that they hear 24/7 - making it hard to even sleep. Alison Hall traveled to the area to find out what's going on.</p>
