Statement From Pres. & General Manager Joe Ahern

  Statement from Joe Ahern
President and General Manager
CBS 2 Chicago

It is with deep sadness and regret that I inform you that CBS 2 Morning News Anchor Randy Salerno passed away last night. Randy was killed in a snowmobile accident in Eagle River, Wisconsin.

Randy was a talented news anchor and a major reason for our recent morning show success. But it was Randy's sense of humor and quick wit that separated him from the rest. He was a skilled journalist, trusted colleague and dear friend to many in our newsroom--especially to our morning team.

Randy has been part of the CBS 2 family since 2004. He previously spent 11 years as an anchor and reporter at WGN-TV.

All of us at CBS 2 extend our deepest condolences to his wife, Irene, their three children and his extended family.
