WELCOME BACK, THANK YOU FOR WATCHING NBC-2 NEWS AT NOON.

FUGITIVE FRIDAY-(5) SS

Starting off our list is Fort Myers native who's been on the wrong side of the law for nearly half of his 30 years. Ahmaud Blue has racked up a string of arrests, and now he's wanted for violating probation after being jailed for being a drug dealer. Blue's first felony run-in with police was at age 16, when he was charged with burglary and grand theft. In the years that followed, he racked up 7 subsequent arrests - mostly for drug dealing, as well as contempt, carrying a concealed weapon and being a deadbeat dad. Blue has already been arrested once this month, and with your help, he'll be headed right back to the familiar surroundings of the Lee County Jail by the end of the day. Blue has several tattoos, including the words City Hood on his right hand, a picture of Jesus killing the Devil on his back, a money bag on his right shoulder and the phrase "I so Hood" on his right arm.

And in Collier County, the hunt is on for Micah Dean Buzzard, wanted for various different warrants, stemming from drugs, criminal mischief and driving with a suspended license. This 30 year old felon has spent most of his life in Naples, and deputies are pretty certain he's still around town. Buzzard has led a well rounded life of crime, with arrests for battery, witness intimidation, assault, resisting officers and shooting into a building. He was also incarcerated for child abuse, after throwing a blunt object through a car window, shattering glass all over a baby who was secured in a car seat. Buzzard is 6'4", 175 pounds and has a tattoo of a Zodiac sign on the back of his neck.

Next up is Jackie Lee Caldwell, a repeat offender who spent the lions share of last year behind bars. 31 year old Caldwell is now wanted once again in Lee County - this time for violating her probation on the heels of an arrest for burglary and grand theft. Over the years, she's amassed a rap sheet of eight arrests, and 28 different charges, which run the gamut from multiple counts of battery and grand theft, the repeated illegal use of credit cards, forgery of public records and contempt of court. Last known to be living in North Fort Myers, Caldwell may be flying under the radar using the aliases of Jerica Caldwell, Dawn Brown or Jackie Justice.

Snaps of all of her wedding prettiness

RAVAYNA In general, I'm just a bit of a perfectionist

WHICH MADE WHAT HAPPENED THREE DAYS BEFORE HER WEDDING LAST OCTOBER JUST

a little bit MORE CHALLENGING

AMY ROBACH You arrive in New Orleans, you get to the hotel, what do you see?

RAVAYNA there's no lawn. And there are-

DAVID It was a mud pit.

RAVAYNA-no bushes. And then they told us that they would be happy to put

down a green carpet.

THE KITCHEN? CLOSED FOR RENOVATIONS.

RAVAYNA the flowers came in from the floral company and about a third of

them

were totally dead.it was not a good day.

AND THIS IS WHERE THE WEDDING GOES FROM BAD TO WORSETO DOWNRIGHT SURREAL.

DAVID'S THREE PIECE SUIT ARRIVED THREESIZES TOO BIG.

THEN, THE NIGHT BEFORE HER BIG DAY, RAVAYNA CLOCKED HER HEAD ON A DOOR.

WHEN SHE WOKE ON HER WEDDING DAY IT WAS CLEAR, BEAUTIFULAND STEAMING HOT.

RAVAYNA I wore a gown that was a lot of gown, you know

WHICH LOOKED STUNNINGUNTIL THEY STARTED TAKING PHOTOS.

RAVAYNA by the third one, I'm like, "David, I'm gonna pass out, And then

they unzipped my

dress and put icepacks down my back and on my neck. So it's, like, fifteen

minutes before my wedding,

and I'm sitting in the front hall, like, trying not to faint.

for a bride, I try to tell them, is remember what is most important. The day

is about love.

AND WHILE RAVAYNA AND DAVID DIDN'T HAVE A WEDDING PLANNER LIKE DIANNE TO

SAVE THEM

GBS FLU SHOT-ON CAM

THE SPIKE IN "FLU CASES" THIS SEASON IS SENDING MANY PEOPLE TO GET A "FLU SHOT."

BUT FOR ONE MAN THE DECISION, ALMOST COST HIM HIS LIFE.

HIS STORY IS AN IMPORTANT REMINDER OF HOW THE DECISION TO GET THE FLU VACCINE SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN LIGHTLY.

GBS FLU SHOT-PKG

"The question is, would you get another flu shot Mike? The answer, is absolutely not."

FROM HIS HOSPITAL ROOM, 56 YEAR OLD MICHEAL, WHO'S GOT A FEEDING TUBE HOOKED UP TO HIS BODY, HAS BEEN ATTEMPTING TO LEARN HOW TO WALK AGAIN. A FAR CRY FROM HIS LIFE 3 MONTHS AGO.

"I was a body builder lifting weights and in tremendous shape."

HIS WIFE ISABELLE STEC HAS BEEN BY HIS SIDE THE WHOLE TIME--

"You're a perfectly normal person the next thing you know you're paralyzed."

MICHEAL AND ISABELLE SAY DOCTORS AT THE E-R IMMEDIATELY ASKED IF HER HUSBAND HAD GOTTEN A FLU SHOT WHEN HE CAME IN, UNABLE TO STAND. HE HAD.

THEY DIAGNOSED HIM WITH GUILLANE BARRE SYNDROME. IT'S A VERY RARE DISORDER IN WHICH YOUR OWN IMMUNE SYSTEM DAMAGES YOUR NERVE CELLS, CAUSING MUSCLE WEAKNESS, PARALYSIS AND TENDS TO AFFECT THOSE OLDER THAN 50 ACCORDING TO THE CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL.

WITH FLU OUTBREAKS HAPPENING AROUND THE NATION THE C- D-C IS URGING EVERYONE TO GET VACCINATED. IT'S THE BEST PREVENTATIVE MEASURE AGAINST THE FLU. THE ELDERLY, THOSE WITH DIABETES AND THOSE WITH HEALTH ISSUES ARE PARTICULARLY VULNERABLE.

"There is concern and its a valid concern from the community but people might have, might develop that. But that's not a common occurrence. It's in very rare cases they may develop guillan barre."

BUT EXPERTS SAY THIS IS EXTREMELY RARE.

"We don't know of cases of guillan-barre associated with the vaccine though. It's more associated with the disease than with the vaccine "

IN FACT TWO-THIRDS OF THE PEOPLE WHO DO GET IT, GET IT IN THE DAYS OR WEEKS AFTER BEING ILL WITH DIARRHEA OR ANOTHER RESPIRATORY ILLNESS.

"This influenza season seems to be an active one and the best way to prevent it is by receiving the vaccine every year."
